Ahhh, the long face shape. The perfect haircut for us is one that doesn't drag down the face, yet adds width.

Styles That Work Best on a Long Face
Bangs can be your best friend because they can hide a big forehead. Try brow-skimming, side-swept bangs or blunt bangs. See my gallery of the best bangs by face shapes for more information.When it comes to haircuts, chin-length bobs are also ideal for us because they create the illusion of width. Gwyneth Paltrow's long bob is very flattering on a long face. Just make sure your stylist cuts the hair a bit shorter in the back so it doesn't look boring. Curls and waves work well because they add width to the face.
Be careful with long hair: Hair that is too long like Megan Fox's can drag down the face. Long layers work best with pieces hitting at the nose, the chin and the collarbone. Consider a v-shaped style where the length is mainly in the back, while the sides and front of your hair appear shorter. Also consider adding wave or curls to the hair (find out how, here).
