When it comes to picking a fresh haircut, your face shape is one of the most important factors to consider. After all, you can choose the prettiest new cut, but if it doesn’t work with your face, it isn’t going to be all you dreamed of. But we want you to look and feel your best no matter what. Therefore we gathered some tips for the best styles for every face shape.
Round Face
Round face shapes have a lot more versatility haircut-wise than many tend to think. The Polished Pixie, the Layered Bob and the Side-Swept Length are some options to consider.
Oval Face
If you have an oval face shape, you should consider yourself lucky. Thanks to their well-balanced appearance, oval faces can suit a wide variety of hairstyles. For oval-faced ladies who like short hair, a blunt bob haircut or lob haircut with subtle layers will look particularly chic. If you prefer long hair, on the other hand, opt for minimal layers or style your hair with waves or curls to keep it from dragging down your face.
Rectangle Face
Those with a rectangular face should work to soften the appearance of their sharp jaw and forehead without further elongating the face. A soft layered cut, for example, can enhance cheekbones while disguising the corners of the face. If you do opt for a long length, try styling your hair with a blowout, waves, or curls, which will add horizontal volume and soften the sharp angles of your face.
Square Face
Go for a lob with body and use a styling cream to emphasize layers and de-emphasize squareness. Another option is long and straight, that softens square angles. You can also try waves from the ears down, which helps obscure any severity in the jawline.
Heart Face
A long side-swept cut will disguise part of your forehead while drawing eyes down to the bottom of your face. You can also pair this cut with waves or curls starting below the ear to even out your angled jaw. Alternatively, a side-parted pixie cut with textured ends can also appear gorgeous on a heart face shape, as can a bob haircut or lob haircut, which will ensure fullness around your jaw
Diamond Face
With the combination of a strong jawline and high cheekbones, the goal for diamond-shaped faces is keeping the hair in motion and adding softness. This can be done with straight layers or by adding volume with extra wave and curl. Diamond-shaped faces look best with cuts that sit around the chin to widen that area of the face, such as A-line or blunt bobs or shoulder-length cuts featuring layers for added fullness
