short hair style tips
First, you should consider your face shape when you get your hair cut. If your face is round, you probably don't want to go with a pixie cut or something super-sleek. Instead, try something with choppy layers around your cheekbones and length that falls a little below your chin. Add a little volume at the top and some side-swept bangs and you instantly elongate the appearance your face. On the other hand, if your face is long, you may want to add lots of long bangs and cut your hair chin-length to shorten the appearance of your face. Square faces will want to go with softer layers instead of blunt cuts, while heart-shaped faces look great with styles that flip out and balance the thinness of their face at the jaw.
