They range from about three inches below the shoulder, to as far as it will grow. Long hairstyles don't usually have a facial weight line, and thus can be worn by any face shape. The only area of concern would be a long hairstyle with bangs. Although bangs are a concern with any hairstyle, with long hairstyles the bangs must be in perfect balance with the rest of the face.
The advantage to long hairstyles is that they are timeless, and will give your credit card a break when it comes to the frequency of salon visits. Unless of course you color your hair, and you will still need touch-ups every six weeks.
The disadvantage is two fold. A never ending battle to rid hair of split ends, and most people simply cannot and should not wear long hair beyond a certain age. What age that is I will leave up to you. Frequently husbands will talk women out of a shorter hairstyle because the husbands feel younger seeing his high school sweetheart with long hair. It's this simple, if you look in the mirror and feel you look old, then you do. A shorter hairstyle will actually take quite a few years off, and you will actually feel younger too.
