Q: I am overweight by at least 30 pounds, and my face appears very round. I am self-conscious, and I do not know how to best style my straight, limp brown hair.

A: I work with many women who have expressed similar concerns. As a professional, when I create a look for any women, I look at the whole person and then focus on their best features. With the right cut and color, your whole image changes, depending on your hair type and color and, also, what we would like to achieve. You may wish to accent particular strands of hair color or highlights, or you may prefer a color enhancer to bring out the natural shine. You can enhance hair texture and movement and slightly alter hair color, either a shade darker or lighter. You have more options than you can imagine!

Take a look:  A round face is wide with a round hairline and round chin line. In this case, it is best to create the illusion of length. You will want some height on the top, close at the sides, and bangs brushed to the side. Easy, like magic!
