Hi all, i have been debating cutting my hair for a while now, its just getting a bit too long for my liking but i dont want to cut it without being sure.

this is what it currently looks like.

as you can see its very long, i used to like when it was more of a controllable length like in this photo:

i still want it shoulder length, any ideas for my face shape? some people love my long hair and some say it doesnt suit my face shape, i know the decision is upto me at the end of the day but any advise would be welcome.

thanks in advance.

Well, I guess I can chime in cuz I used to have long hair too until some years ago. To be honest I think something short would suit you better has you have quite thin/feminine facial features. But no buzz cut as that looks usually like uninspired **** and like you can't afford a real haircut if you're not a model type and look good with whatever haircut.

Can you post a picture with your hair pulled back? Hard to give any good suggestions without seeing your jaw and ears clearly.

do you straighten it or anything?
i would try letting it go natural if it looks good that way
also id avoid parting it in the middle

I dont want to come off as a troll, but all of your glasses are really bad and dont suit you at all. They look like what my sister wears, and she's a lesbian.

it does look effeminate in those first 2 pictures.
i would suggest growing a beard or simply a mustache.

I agree on the glasses. Esp in the first pic. They really do make you look feminine. A little too feminine. Unless that's the look you're going for.
