Identifying face shape: square, oval, round, heart, diamond
Let's start with the basics, figuring out what shape your face actually is! Grab a mirror and a measuring tape. Observe your face carefully. Is your forehead wider than your jawline? Is your face long and narrow? Or is it more or less the same width and length?
Consider a round face, there will be fuller cheeks and face will appear as a circle. The face shape can be oval as well, it would be longer than wide with soft curves. If you have a strong jawline and your forehead and cheekbones are roughly the same width, you likely have a square face.
If your chin is pointed and your forehead is wider, you likely have a heart-shaped face. A diamond-shaped face will feature prominent cheekbones with a narrower forehead and jawline.
Choose hairstyles adding length and structure for round faces
Once you have identified your face we will discuss hairstyles that will suit. When it comes to hairstyles for round faces, the goal is to add length and create the illusion of a more defined structure. Opt for styles that add height at the crown, as this elongates the face.
Layers around the face can help to soften the roundness, but avoid styles that are too voluminous on the sides, as this can make the face appear wider. An asymmetrical bob, with longer pieces in the front, is a fantastic choice that adds angles and definition.
Long, flowing hair with subtle layers is also a great option, as the length helps to draw attention downward. And a high ponytail or topknot can instantly lift your features and create a more streamlined look.
Avoid blunt, chin-length bobs and styles that are all one length, as these can accentuate the roundness of the face.
Hairstyles to enhance oval faces, focus on volume and layers
If you have the good fortune of a oval face, consider yourself lucky. Most hairstyles are flattering to this face shape because of its balanced proportions. You can experiment with various styles, from short bobs to long layers and anything in between.
However, to truly highlight your oval face, consider styles that add volume at the crown and cheekbones. A layered haircut that frames the face beautifully brings out your natural features, or experiment with a textured bob that adds movement and dimension.
Long, wavy hair is also a stunning choice that accentuates the oval shape. You can experiment with different parting styles too. Avoid hairstyles that completely cover your face, as this is a shame, and instead bring out the contours.
Softening square face with layers, waves, curls, and asymmetrical cuts
For those of you with a square face shape, the key is to soften the strong angles and add roundness. Opt for hairstyles with soft layers, waves, or curls. These help to break up the angular lines and create a more feminine appearance.
A long, layered cut that falls below the jawline is an excellent choice, as it draws attention away from the angular jaw. An asymmetrical bob that is slightly longer in the front can also work wonders, as it softens the jawline and adds interest.
Side-swept bangs are another great way to soften the face. Avoid hairstyles that are too severe or geometric, such as blunt bobs or straight, heavy bangs, as these can accentuate the squareness of the face.
Hairstyle tips for heart-shaped faces: balance wider forehead with voluminous styles at jawline
If you have heart-shaped, then the aim should be to balance the wider forehead with the narrower chin. Choose hairstyles that add volume at the jawline and temples. A chin-length bob that is full and voluminous at the bottom is a fantastic option, as it creates the illusion of a wider chin.
Long, wavy hair with layers that start around the cheekbones can also help to balance the face. Side-swept bangs are a great way to soften a broad forehead, while adding a touch of style.
Avoid hairstyles that are too severe or pulled back tightly, as these can accentuate the wide forehead and narrow chin.
Diamond faces: Enhance balance with volume at chin and forehead, avoid sleek styles
Finally, let's talk about diamond faces. These are characterized by prominent cheekbones and a narrower forehead and jawline. The goal is to soften the angles and create a more balanced look. Hairstyles with volume at the forehead and chin area can help to achieve this.
A layered bob that is slightly longer in the front is a flattering choice, as it adds width to the chin area. Long, wavy hair with layers that start around the cheekbones can also help to soften the face, or you can experiment with side-swept bangs that frame the face and add softness.
Avoid hairstyles that are too sleek or pulled back tightly, as these can accentuate the narrow forehead and jawline.
