Hairdos for Fatchicks
Any suggestions for how to wear hair for chubby faces? I looked in a plus sized magazine and it was all matronly or long and pulled up.
I have short hair - about 3 inches long all over and I am trying to grow it out to about shoulder length. Right now my hair is a MESS. It is too long to spike and too short to pull up. |
Good question! I don't have any suggestions, though, you know what my hair looks like! I'm afraid to get it done. I think every hairdresser in Tennessee studied at the Loretta Lyne School of Beauty :lol: I ALWAYS come out looking like a country western singer from the 70s.
Have you thought about going curly? http://www.beautifulhairstyles.com/ Scroll down to the pic of Chrstina Aguilera, and her short curls. I think something like that would look good on you, though you'd need to grow it out more :) |
no clue sry, i dont really have a chubby face its rather barrow, so i just do lots of dif hairstyles
|
I feel for you, Loretta. In my growing out stage I went from Rodney Dangerfield to Yugioh (says Cody).
The haircut looks great on Christina, but on me, ridiculous. :lol: It's a little too poofy. Maybe something like that, but not quite so enthusiastic. I've thought about doing the long curly do in my avatar again. I think that is why my avatar isn't updated with the current hair. I miss my old hair, but it was too high maintenence. Oh yeah, that is another requirement. I need to be able to fix it in one minute or less! Maybe I'll just razor it all over again. |
To Do or Not to Do
Hello Spike, Loretta, and yearnin! :wave:
I've been looking into this very thing myself, since I'm long overdue for a haircut and also have changed shape since losing a bit of weight. (My last [paid for] haircut was before I started to live on plan in March, so my hair is just CRAZY now. :dizzy: I've just been hacking away at my bangs so I can see!) What I've read is that for a chubby face, the recommended do involves layers and a shorter length, so that you don't have too much volume on the sides, and also so your neck isn't lost altogether. It's supposed to give a "lightening" impression. :dunno: |

Yeah! Kinda like those! And thanks for that link -- I was wondering when that show was coming back on! :)
Have you come to any decisions, or are you still in the investigative phase of the decision-making process? |
No decisions yet...I'm thinking about just going to my hairdresser and say DO SOMETHING! She knows me enough by now that I don't want anything too conservative. I had long hair for so long. I went with a picture of Sharon Osbourne and came out looking like Princess Diana. Love her, not her 1986 hair. We wound up going back 3 days in a row until we got it right. I was going for the Joy Behar look, but I think that will be just a little too much primping for me.

How about a mullet ? :s:
Short around the ears, not poofy and long in the back. What ever you do, DO NOT get a Mo cut or is that bowl cut. |
MULLET! Leave it to you to come up with that one. :lol: I actually used to have one, kinda. It wasn't really one. But my curly hair was short on top and longer in back. It didn't even look like one, but I suppose technically it could have been one. As soon as I realized it, I grew it all out. Do you think people with mullets know what they're called, and how much people make fun of them? I have to say the day I realized what one was and noticed my slightly unbalanced hair, things changed. How come there's still tons of them, including on my ex-husband? Do people not care? :lol:

Ignorance truly is bliss.
Mullets! :lol3: I'll be chuckling about this for the rest of the day....it's the small pleasures, really. ;) |
Sorry, I just couldn't resist. You know I had that Do in the 80's and never realized it until a few years ago. I just had the hair cut around my ears so I could show off my double ear piercings...sheesh ;)
Ignorance truly is bliss <--- you ain't kidding :lol3: How about some dreadlocks :fr: http://www.lamasbeauty.com/beauty/fl...face_print.htm http://sheknows.com/about/look/2280.htm http://www.hairboutique.com/tips/tip464.htm |
I think dreads are cool! :) Those were great links, Leenie -- thanks for sharing them!

Great links, Leenie! |
So you'd like to go flat (straight) then, right? Is that your picture to the left there? (you're a cutie! :) ) My brother's GF straightened my hair when they came down for a visit (with a flat iron doohickey) and I really liked it. Made me feel all sexy and slim...so maybe you should go straight. It took her a good 25 minutes to straighten my hair though because it's so thick. Good luck in whatever you decide :dizzy:
