    Rectangular frames can be suitable for long face. Because your face is long, so the frame should be as much as possible to cover your face. You should also choose thick frame to reduce the impression of a long face. If you are a male, you can choose a wider frame, such as big frame which approximate square. If you are a female, you can choose a frame with edges.

    Different kind of face shape need different styles of glasses frames. And there generally 7 types of face shapes. They are round, oval, oblong, base-down triangle, base-up triangle, diamond and square. Those people with a long face usually have a long straight cheek line.

When selecting a right pair of glasses to flatter your face, color, size and shape of the frame are the most important factors that you should pay a lot of attention.

    In my opinion, for people with a long face, they seem to be very serious and even dull. Here are some tips for long faces when choosing their prescription glasses. Firstly, do not choose the sunglasses that are shaped long or slender, for it may make your face look even longer. Secondly, You can try the bigger glasses. These bigger glasses can cover larger area of our face. Therefore, they will help to make our face look much shorter and smaller, and make us look fashionable as well.
