Double chins and hairstyles

Either short or ...medium to longer hair, nothing that sits at chin level like a bob. It’s yet another dismal part of the ageing process isn’t it?

Must admit that some things no longer motivate me. I am still trying to try with my appearance and grooming... I just don't know how to do it!

You seem quite dissatisfied with lots of things about your appearance op.

First, what does "op" mean?
Second, no not dissatisfied, but anxious. A different thing.

Do jaw exercises (not in public).
Tell yourself you're lovely.
Because you're worth it.

Callistemon good idea. Is that cosmetics company paying you?!

I think a bob at just about chin length is supposed to be flattering.
I'm hardly a style icon though, so I'm probably talking out of my hat.

We are all style icons...

I wanted a change of style too JillEH, and did an internet search for hairstyles for old fat face ,
All that came up was Jane Fonda (thin and doesnt really look old), and 20y old's with fashionably dyed grey hair!

If you find an answer please let me know!

Oh, and Jane Fonda was wearing a wig!

Namsnanny yeah I did a similar thing, and got the same results...thin old gals who probably had had a chin tuck... It's time we made double chins fashionable. Let's start a jowl-positive movement!

Not sure about the hairstyle but I do have the same problem with a double chin. I avoid having my photo taken because whatever angle a pic is taken from the dreaded chins are always so obvious.

I've had shortish layer cut hair for 20 years but now in my 70's I took the plunge and have grown it into a bob that sits below my jaw line. My hair is still reasonably thick so I tuck it behind my ears and it curls round towards my chin, partially hiding my jaw line and reducing the look of my jowls. It's much more flattering than the short cut I used to have.

My double/treble chins have become worse over the last couple of years BUT NO ONE KNOWS!

Never mind the hair style, Face masks are your friends

Face yoga.

(Best not to try it in public.)

Otherwise you could try different wigs to see which is most flattering and have your hair cut into that style.

Don't go to the hairdresser I went to though, she doesn't know the meaning of 'bob'.

I know!
I used to get a cut for 10 bob but prices nowadays are astronomical

OP I think you should spend less time looking in the mirror. Being obsessed with how you look is not healthy.
I have a rule - I only look at myself once a day - unless I catch myself in a shop window!!

I thought I'd convert bobs into £s but I need a cup of coffee first.

Actually I've just seen a man with a beard and a double chin.......? May be I should abandon the tweezers?????

I saw a woman with both, this morning.
Then I moved away from the mirror.

??? mirror? What's that then?
