Hair Styles to Suit your Face Shape
Fashion cannot be followed blindly! Especially with hairstyles, you should always see what suits your facial features . An amazing hairstyle that might look good on a model may not necessarily look good for you.
Hair Style for A round face Shape
Since you have a nice round face, see that your hair is cut onto your cheeks to shade them and narrow down the sides. A shoulder length cut will help make your face look longer and slimmer. Avoid fringes and curls. A soft feathery look is the most flattering. Straight long hair gives a stunning effect!
Hair Style for A Long face Shape
Your beautiful long face can be made to look less long with fringes, soft half-fringes or a chin-length cut which is fuller at the bottom, add width. Anything but a long straight bob, which will make you appear even more long faced and pulls down your whole appearance.
Hair Style for A heart-shaped face
Since you have a beautiful heart-shaped face, softness at the temples and fullness just below the ear level suits you the best. Avoid a center parting, as it tends to emphasize your pointed chin, instead part your hair on one side or wear it without a parting. If your hair is short, turn the ends inwards.
Hair Style for A Square face Shape
Fringes and curls flicked forward help to soften ‘corners’ of you square face. Cut your hair short at the temples. Avoid symmetry, short crops or anything geometric. Make sure your hair has body, if necessary go in for a soft perm.
Hair Rules to Live By
Protect your hair as well as your skin, from the sun. Use a sunscreen on hairline partings. Lip balm will also work.
Don’t smile when the hairdresser is cutting your fringe. Smiling raises your forehead, and your fringe may be cut too short. Remember the shorter your forehead, the longer your fringe should be.
Don’t cross your legs while having your hair cut, it will make you sit unevenly, and one side of your hair may end up longer than the other.
Don’t try to style soaking wet hair. Get it 80% dry first.
For an extra lift , hold your head upside down while drying.
Never go to bed with wet hair.
