Hair Help!!

[GemM83]

Hi guys

I'm after a bit of help/reassurance/pictures of yourselves!!

I got married in August and I grew my bob out so I could have my hair up. All well and good but I now HATE my hair (just above shoulder length). I have terribly thick frizzy hair and unless I spend 30 minutes every morning straightening it, I tend to look like a tramp!

I am desperate to go "sod it" and get it all chopped of a la Anne Hathaway but my problem is is that I have a chubby-ish face and a double chin. I used to have very short hair but I was a size 8 back then with no chin!!!

I have googled/Pinterest "pixie cut, fat face/double chin and was presented with pictures of Emma Watson, Victoria Beckham and Charlize Theron.......women I dont consider having double chins!!! 🤔

My appointment is on Friday and I'm still debating!! Anyone with similar facial features take the plunge and lop it all off? And if you did would you share a photo?

Many thanks 😊

Hm, I don't think the way a haircut looks has that much to do with having a 'fat' face, but more with the general shape of your face.

Do you know what shape your face is? If not, this might be helpful - https://thebeautydepartment.com/2012/11/finding-your-face-shape/

If you tell us the shape of your face, we might be able to be more helpful.

I believe I have an oval face!!!

Oval face shape is supposedly the most forgiving one - you can wear any haircut! I don't think a pixie haircut would look bad on you.

I also found this website (the name is kind of offensive, but the site itself is quite good) - https://fatgirlsshorthair.tumblr.com/

It's full of pictures of heavier/rounder ladies with short hair and I must say I love most of them! With most of them I even prefer shorter hair.

Here are some of the ones I liked the most (click on the words - the links are really long, so I made the buttons instead):

3. This
4. This one is probably one of my most favourite.

I hope you find something you like and get the haircut that makes you happy!
