ela choosing new haircut

by Ela
(Europe)

I'm a petite (5ft3, 90 pounds) girl with large nose, big ears, big forehead and small jaw. My hair is mousy brown, oily by nature (I have to wash it every day), I wear it long (always have). I'd like to have a new haircut, something more fluffy, with more volume - my hair is just limp and flat all the time, a cut that would somehow make my big nose look smaller (can't afford surgery). My hairdresser said that I should have long, straight bangs, but it seems to me that it would make my nose seem even bigger! I tried curling my hair (rollers, curling iron), but due to college and work I don't have time to style my hair every day, and I can't sleep with rollers (obviously awkward when you share your bedroom with your partner).

To draw attention away from your nose, add a bang.. I agree with your stylist. You can also do a bob to your chin with a bang and that would also help.. Also, to help with your nose, play with makeup.. apply a darker foundation on the nose and a lighter foundation on the sides of the nose at the cheeks. This will contour the nose by shadowing it to make it look smaller.. Don't put blush too close to the nose. Keep it mid-cheek and back..
Let me know how this works for you!
Thanks
