Haircut for a Long Face

I'm having a very huge forehead and I don’t want it to be shown as it looks too odd because my face is long. Please suggest me some hairstyle and I want my hair neither to be too long nor too short.

Having a huge forehead with a long face can make things odd, boy don't worry you can easily hide that with the help of certain suited haircuts. Haircuts for long face with big forehead should be such that they don't drag down the face and at the same time adds the width of the face. Your decision to keep a medium length is perfect as too short or too long hair tends to elongate your face. Too long length tends to drag the face and too short hair also emphasizes only on the face leaving the haircut behind. Layers are one of the best haircuts for long face; have some pieces hitting the nose, chin and collarbone. A 'V' shaped style can be considered where the length mainly resides at the back and the sides and front of hair appears shorter. If you have long hair then you can make them medium sized with adding some waves or curls on your hair. These curls will suit your face type and also you need not compromise on the length of your hair. This way you will have a medium sized hair and the waves and curls will also add width to your face and make you look beautiful. If you have straight hair then besides getting layers (which looks best for long face) you can also try chin length bobs. This will not be too short or too long and at the same time will create an illusion of width. Avoid certain hairstyles which will add volume on top like layers which adds volume on top because it will not give a better picture for long face. For a large forehead you can try bangs, bangs will make your face appear shorter as they will practically cover a large part of forehead. Side swept bangs looks more beautiful than blunt bangs.
