Hair length
Before deciding the hairstyle which looks best on people who have a big nose, let’s find out what should be the length of hair. For people with a big nose the most unflattering look will be in short hair styles. So, the pixie cut or bob cut should be avoided. They look best in hairstyles for long or medium length hair.
Layered haircut
Layers add softness to your facial features. It creates visual distraction, that’s why people looking at you would look at your beautiful face as a whole instead of concentrating on the nose.
Bangs
Bangs are popular at all times. Bangs looks good on people with a big nose too. But make sure that your fringes are not blunt and sharp covering the eyes and forehead. Such bangs will make people focus on your nose. Also, make sure that the bangs are not too short. People with big nose should opt for side swept bangs and soft, wispy bangs.
Waves and Curls
Soft curls or waves create a pleasant addition on a face by creating volumes which balances out the nose. Curls and waves distract people’s attention from the big nose. Hairstyle which sports sleek and smooth hair focuses attention on the middle of the face. So, people with big nose should avoid sleek and smooth hairstyles. Waves and curls can be created at home using rollers or hair curling irons.
