Can anyone suggest a new hairstyle for me?

My face is chubby, my hair is extremely straight and resistant to any sort of styling. I have a cowlick and am going grey.

Also have a demanding toddler and a newborn so want an easy maintenance style. Oh and I also have a long hairline going down my neck.

I am fed up of my decades long bob with a fringe. Any suggestions? Oh and I'm nearly 40!

could you post a picture? I have recently had my below shoulder hair cut into a short layered bob with no fringe (was growing out fringe)

How about something like Anne Hathaway? Sorry can't link on phone.

Your face / hair / lifestyle sound very similar to mine. I have a version of her cut, and I find it good - once it starts growing out you can style it s bit like a short layered bob until you have the time / money/ motivation to get to the hairdresser again Grin

You're hair looks great hoop, really healthy

It just needs a good tidy. Maybe use volumnising mousse after washing and before blow drying.

Do you pluck your eyebrows? I wonder if having thicker eyebrows will help define your face better if that's what you feel could be the problem - an eye brow pencil will help.

Ooh inlovepowerhoop that looks fab! Yes I think that would suit me thanks!

I would love to do an Ann Hathaway but think that looks best on thinner faces, and my low hairline at the back might make it look odd?

Yes I pluck my eyebrows, hmm will give that a go.

Thanks ladies!
