Hiya!! I feel like since losing weight, my face has gotten narrower so now my forehead looks HUGE. I'm contemplating Fringe/bangs. Look at my pics and tell me what you think? I'll love you forever. I know it's just hair and it'll grow back if I hate it, but I've never had fringe before!

    I thought all of your smiling pictures looked amazing :) I don't see a 'huge forehead' at all.

    No. Don't do it.

    You have wavy/curly hair, and as a fellow curly-haired gal, I can say that fringes/bangs just don't look right.

    Plus, you have gorgeous hair as it is and your forehead is NOT huge.

    Oh, and your progress pictures are amazing - your face has changed SO much and you look incredible!

    ETA: You could try parting your hair further on the side, which may cause some of the hair to fall across your forehead and give you a bit of a different look, but I still say to stay away from the bangs.

    Good point. I'd have to straighten them every day. I can't be arsed. Haha I'm so lazy with my hair.

    Thank you for the complinents, You're too kind :blushing:

    It looks like you have a heart-shaped face, which is what mine is (although I hate my pointy chin like you hate your forehead).
    Google hair styles for heart shaped faces. I got a haircut that I loved when I reached my goal and it made me feel more confident, even if it didn't erase my pointy chin. :)

    I have a gimongous forehead and i tried to rock the bangs, but it didn't play out. I have really fine/straight hair though, so they just laid down flat on my forehead. So I just keep my hair long, no bangs. Not saying you wouldn't look good in them - just giving you my experience.

    I think you'd look good with or without ! you're forehead is NOT huge, but you could still rock some bangs!
  • I think your hair looks cute just the way it is!
  • I'm growing mine out as we speak... slower then weight loss.

    Your forehead only looks huge because you've fixated on it. It's fine! I can't recommend bangs to anyone because of the awful thing that happened last time I tried them.

    Your forehead looks fine. You're lovely. But a change is always nice after you've lost weight. I used to have long brown hair. I told my stylist one day, "Heck, lets cut it off and dye it red!" He was thrilled. A good person to ask would be an experienced stylist who could tell you if bangs would look good on you and what type would work best.

    I think you look fine at the current moment. I've never been a fan of bangs in general so I vote no.

    You are all hilarious! I hate my pointy chin, too! This is the thinnest I've ever been, so my face shape has always been....blobby. It's good to know it has a shape now <3 All in all I like my face just fine. I plan on chopping my hair off, like boy short, when i reach my goal weight. I've always wanted to, just always thought my face was too fat.
