1. If you have straight hair, you can create more width with bangs. Bangs make your face appear shorter because they cover up a particularly large forehead. Shy away from blunt bangs and go for sideswept bangs like Reese Witherspoon, pictured here.
2. Chin-length bobs and cuts are also ideal for you because they create the illusion of width.
3. Curls and waves also add width, but avoid short layers that add volume on top.
Avoid: Stay away from extremely long or short cuts. These elongate your face.
