on Yahoo!For pear-shaped women, like Alicia Keys, Terry suggests a voluminous 'do to add fullness to your upper body. "The last thing you want is for the head to look small," Terry says. "Styles that would suit would be something a little longer, at least lower-chin to shoulder length. Something that moves and has a little bit more volume and movement." The width and fullness of a hairstyle like this will offset the larger bottom and create balance and flow-the key ingredients for a fab look.

Tall plus-size women need a hairstyle that won't make them appear even bigger or taller than they are. They should embrace their height by flattering it with a hairstyle that suits them best. "Women who are tall can look a little too severe with short hair," Terry warns. For plus-size model Whitney Thompson, long and luscious locks are the perfect complement to her tall frame. The long hairstyle makes her appear a little shorter and more proportioned.

Shorter plus-size women need just the opposite. They want a hairstyle that will make them appear taller and leaner. Though long hair is a fave of many, it can actually work against you if you're a tad shorter. "You never want your hair to be taking over a third of your body," Terry says. "The length can actually make the person look much shorter." For Jennifer Hudson, a shorter haircut is ideal. She looks fabulous and the best part of the short 'do is that it won't call attention to a larger bustline.

According to Terry, women with round faces like Queen Latifah, should avoid haircuts with layers around the face and bouncy curls.
