Your perfect hairstyle:
Breathe a sigh of relief: you're certainly not short on style options…

• Long, fine hair? Go shorter so hair looks thicker and your face looks wider. A cut that's unstructured, which you can wear messy, is a time saver. If you like a more groomed look, think Salma Hayek - her neat, sophisticated, one length cut will suit you and give you that edge of sleek glam.

• Thick, coarse and curly? Lucky you - your hair is a playground and the results can only be positive. Our favourite style is a short razor cut - edgy, sexy and full of texture. (Make sure you avoid like
  the plague shoulder -length and straight styles such as the one Celine Dion wears… no wonder she looks so miserable!)

• Fringe options: Unfortunately in the fringe area it's not a case of anything goes for you…Disguise a long forehead with a thick blunt-cut fringe - you'll be surprised how feminine it makes you look. Steer clear of a fringe if you have a small forehead - it will just emphasise the length of the rest of your face.

• Colour you sexy: Adding highlights to hair at the side of the face will make your face appear shorter, combined with keeping the forehead area darker.

Avoid
To much hair length . . . your face will look even longer! Too much height lengthens your face. Center parts. When your hair gets past your shoulders there is a good chance it is doing you more harm than good. The models with rectangular face shapes and long hair, get by with it only because they have a "on call" hairdresser who is busy primping and teasing, setting and styling to add fullness to the hair. Since most of us don’t have this luxury, my suggestion is keep it above shoulder length.

Other long face celebrities include:
Gwyneth Paltrow, Kirstie Alley, Janet Jackson, Gabrielle Reece, Niki Taylor, Stephanie Seymour
