Layered hairstyle

A layered hairstyle adds softness and lightness to your hair, drawing attention away from your nose. Jennifer Aniston’s hairstyles typically feature layers, either straight or with waves, which helps divert focus from the nose.

Layered hairstyles

Hair length

Medium to long hair is more suitable for women with large noses. Longer hair gives you more options for different hairstyles, thus minimizing attention on the nose.

Pixie cut

The pixie cut is great for women who are confident about their larger noses.

Bangs

Bangs can shift attention from the nose to other areas of the face. Opt for side-swept bangs rather than ones that sit in the center.

Curls or waves

Curly or wavy hair creates volume around the face, making it appear fuller, which can make the nose look smaller. You can curl your hair using rollers for a beautiful look.

Things to avoid

  • Be cautious with short hairstyles. Many cute and pixie styles might unfortunately emphasize a larger nose, but if you’re confident in showcasing your facial features, you can opt for very short pixie styles. However, shorter cuts tend to make the nose look bigger, so try to avoid them as much as possible.
  • Avoid hairstyles with sharp, blunt ends as they are not suitable for people with larger noses, so steer clear of them as much as possible.
  • Try to avoid straight hair as it tends to make your nose look bigger, so keep away from it when you can.
