How to Choose the Style That's Right for You

 Here are some good suggestions that can help you select a proper hair cut or a proper hair style for you, which will help you look younger.

Your goal: To firm up the jaw line.
Try: At least nape-length layers that are shorter in back. Adding some swing this way helps minimize flaws in general, and longer pieces in front will give the illusion of angles where they're needed.

Your goal: To emphasize good features
Try: Cutting layers that "point" toward the area by ending at the same level. If you have a great smile, for example, ask for chin-length pieces in front that will hit at lip level.

Your goal: To hide forehead wrinkles
Try: Eyebrow-skimming bangs (think Goldie Hawn). They'll cover lines and play up your eyes.

Your goal: To sculpt cheekbones
Try: Creating volume at the crown. Ask for layers on top. Then, when styling, take a few strokes with a teasing comb (easy -- we're not talking Marge Simpson) five inches from the hairline.

Your goal: To downplay neck wrinkles
Try: A few wispy, longer strands in the back, even if the cut is short.

Your goal: To brighten a dull complexion
Try: Highlights concentrated around the face "to add dimension and give your skin glow," says Ronald Braso of New York's Frédéric Fekkai Salon
