Jan 12 (THAINDIAN NEWS) So your New year’s resolution was to lose weight. You’ve gotten on the low carb diet, you’ve been working out, and you are starting to see results. Now you are ready for a fresh make-over to get you over that “diet plateau” and help keep you motivated to keep going. Why not try a new, face slimming hair style to pep up those efforts?

1- The high ponytail. Most women who have chubby faces tend to wear their hair down in an effort to hide those cheeks. Contrary to popular belief, a high ponytail can actually slim the face. Pull your hair up into a ponytail which is as close to the crown of your head as you can get. The goal is to draw the attention away from the cheekbones. Pulling down a few curls can give you a soft, fresh look. The ponytail tail can be dressed up with chopsticks, or glittery ponytail holders. A French Twist is also a great variation.

2- Pull the hair to the side. A great way to make a square or round face appear longer is to style the hair in a deep side part. You can wear it up or down with this part, which can be on either the right or left sides of the head. You can also try a bun or ponytail which is pulled to the side as well.

3- Straighten and smooth. Using moose or gel to smooth the hair down into a sleek style can create a more slim appearance for the face. Puffing up the hair in some popular styles can actually add more width to the appearance of the face. For this reason it is a good idea for those with chubbier faces to keep their hair smoothed as close to the scalp as they can.

4- Puff up the bangs. Pull back your bangs, and allow them to hang just a bit over the top of the head and then spray with a touch of hairspray. This will create a natural puff which will instantly lift the face, and make the eyebrows and forehead stand out, This will all work together to give the appearance of a thinner and longer face.
