Need hair help!

Okay. I have long straight red hair. It is down to where it covers my bra strap on my back (strange reference, I know). It is all one length. Currently no layers.

Except for my requisite chin-length bob I got when I graduated high school (everyone cuts their hair off then!) it has always been long. Like, always...

My freshman high school student ID looks exactly the same as I look now. And I am 25...

Now I know that there is nothing un-stylish about straight long hair...it's not exactly "the Rachel" or "'80's perm with wings"....but still. I would like to change it up a little but KEEP THE LENGTH. NO BANGS!!!!!

So, can y'all please help me! I am too indecisive. Post some pics that you think would look cute

And if it helps, my face shape is round, my hair is medium to fine thickness (somewhere in between) and I am 5'4" and 122.

So come on GC stylists. Style me!

What about adding a subtle face frame? Nothing too chunky where it was to the point where you HAD to curl it in every day. But something like... when you curl it in, it looks a little nicer... haha

I have a subtle face frame and I like it. My hair is about the same length, too. It works for me.

Have you thought about maybe getting highlights? I'm a big fan of highlights!

I have never colored my hair or gotten highlights because I really like my hair color. It is a GREAT color of red. It's not that fire-orange red...it's closer to auburn and it has natural highlights

My hair's like yours in that it's straight and long. Last week I got long layers cut-- the shortest being long side sweeping bangs that hit a little past my eye. I don't wear them as bangs... I just like having them if I have a ponytail that's parted to the side and they fall out to the side. After I got layers, my stylist was like now you have a style! I don't blowdry... I actually now use a hair straighter to get it to look even sleeker. It looks really good and I can still wear it back in a neat slick backed ponytail, which I have in right now!
