2 1/2 months postpartum and can't stand myself in the mirror. Still 15 kg over the starting weight and my face is horribly spherical. Photo below was taken at 3rd month just to give you an idea of the shape...but now it's worse! Any ideas to slim down my face? Not short please. Thanks!

Stumbled across this. Has some suggestions and examples of styles which could help you to make your face appear a bit slimmer. For what it's worth I think that it looks pretty slim already!

Love n.3 though! My face is also long (have a huuuge head, inherited by DSShock) so I have to keep the fringe somehow

I agree no. 3 is very pretty, sort of a boho chic look going on there. I could never pull off a full fringe, but I do have sort of a side fringe thing going on I guess, well shorter pieces of hair that I leave down when I tie my hair up anyway. I'd go with that one for you it's super pretty.

I have a round face and ime a bob doesn't work, it just creates more fullness and makes your head look bigger. Keep the long hair. I think a longer side swept fringe would suit you and a couple of inches off the ends.

A long sweeping fringe gives the illusion of a slimmer face. It also looks good up with the fringe, in a bun or ponytail.

Also, don't be so hard on yourself! You've just had a baby and I think you have gorgeous hair.
Perhaps change your glasses for a different frame? It's hard to tell from the pic here as you seem to have been custard pied. he he Grin
