And with your lovely<br /> round/oval face I see a bob with a few layers cut into the ends perhaps falling to low jaw level. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-878766 Fri, 15 Mar 2013 11:20:10 +0000 Jules 878766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Work with the hair you have now of course, but FYI my pre-pregnancy curls came back around 2.5 years after my last kid (I was still bf but had my period back for about a year). The transition from pregnancy/bf hormones back to normal took a looooong time! But you'll probably get the curl back </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-878670 Fri, 15 Mar 2013 05:04:02 +0000 4babiesMe 878670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi from a fellow breastfeeding mom. My baby is 6 months old. I've only been around for about a month, so I'm not an expert when it comes to body types. My first thought was inverted triangle, but you do have hips and a somewhat defined waist so perhaps slight hourglass? I'm sure the other ladies will point you in the right direction there. </p> <p>As for hair, it does look like you have an oval shaped face, which, fortunately, is one of the most versatile when it comes to haircuts. I'm also an oval, but with a more pronounced chin. Have you considered a side swept bang/fringe? I think a long bob would be lovely. Something like this. Your coloring is beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-878058 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 18:57:52 +0000 Sarah A 878058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome! I also see rectangle and some hourglass tendencies. this is a great place to have some fun and get some good advice on building a wardrobe that really suits your figure and style goals. Welcome once again! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-878039 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 18:29:45 +0000 Bree 878039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Melanie, your quite welcome Your a beautiful woman! This forum has helped me tremendously with regards to dressing for your body shape! I look forward to seeing your WIW's </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-877377 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 00:29:17 +0000 Melaine 877377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much for the help and kind words. I am reading up on the rectangle body shape now (and will check the hour glass one as well). Thank you Bree for the Kirstin Dunst link. I wish I could pull off a pixie like she does!</p> <p>Breastfeeding does burn calories! My son has MSPI which is Milk Soy Protein Intolerance so I have had to cut a lot of things out of my diet. For a long time I was eating fruits, veggies, meat and nuts (cut out dairy, eggs, soy, and all grains). That really helped me drop the weight! </p> <p>I got rid of a ton of clothes and want to be shopping more mindfully so knowing how to dress my body type really helps! Thank you all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-876889 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 15:47:43 +0000 krishnidoux 876889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so pretty! I say rectangle. Your face looks oval/round. Great cheekbones! I would keep your hair the same length, maybe refresh the ends to get a long bob.</p> <p>BTW did you know breastfeeding makes you burn more calories (I read up to 500 a day somewhere). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-876877 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 15:40:29 +0000 rute 876877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would say Racy Rectangle, as well! Nice athletic body! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-876860 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 15:31:58 +0000 Tina 876860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous face! You could just add in some long layers and maybe put some highlights into your hair and you'd have shape and dimension. If you're like me you still want to be able to pull it back if needed. I think you do the no fringe style very well.<br /> Your body type is a close tie between slim hour glass and rectangle, IMO. You are very well proportioned. You look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-876859 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 15:31:47 +0000 Bree 876859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sorry, here's the correct <a href="http://www.maximumfx.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/round-face-shape.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.maximumfx.com/wp-co.....-shape.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-876856 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 15:29:13 +0000 Bree 876856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd say your face shape is round like Kirsten Dunst.

And I believe you have a long torso, too, though it could be the angle of the photo. Angie has lots of posts about every body type, including rectangle.</p> <p>I am afraid I am not of much help when it comes to face shape and hair.</p> <p>Btw, you look wonderful, and congrats on the new baby! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/name-this-body-type-please#post-876834 Wed, 13 Mar 2013 15:11:52 +0000 Melaine 876834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no idea what my body type is...can ya'll help? </p> <p>I'm 5'6" and 125lbs. I just had my third child 10 months ago but because of my dietary changes while breastfeeding, I am actually at a low weight for me. I desperately need to tone but that's beside the point. I am still breastfeeding but my chest is pretty flat regardless so maybe pear? I have no idea!</p> <p>As an extra question (I may post another thread) I would love any feedback on my face shape and ideas for haircuts. I usually have long layers, but I had my sister chop off my hair last summer for Beautiful Lengths. I haven't had a haircut since so it's pretty rough! I am growing it out again but ideas for doing so gracefully would be helpful! My hair is medium thickness with some wave. I like to wear it curly but it doesn't scrunch anymore (less curl since pregnancies) and I don't really have much time with homeschooling the big kids and taking care of the baby to curl it with the Chi like I prefer.</p> <p>THANK YOU for any tips at all! </p>
