If you've been contemplating a change in hairstyle but can't decide which style will suit you best, then exploring your face shape is key. From round to square, heart to diamond – our expert stylists reveal the cuts that compliment each facial structure.
Round faces have a soft, full appearance with equal width and length. “Opt for styles with volume on top and length around the chin to elongate the look,” shares Vipul Chudasama of Ikonic Hair. Layered bobs and long cuts with face-framing pieces help balance round faces.
Those with oval faces have it easy – almost any ‘do will flatter thanks to balanced features. Still, hints Chudasama, soft layers or side-swept fringes enhance oval facial symmetry.
For defined jawlines, Honey Verma of Myrah Spa suggests softened styles. “Square faces look best with rounded cuts rather than severe bobs,” she notes. Gentle layers soften sharp angles.
Rectangle faces boast a longish look. While Verma says bobs can work with finesse, versatile Rectangle faces suit balanced styles.
Hearts gain definition with chin-grazing cuts and side-swept fringe, per Chudasama. These balance narrow chins on heart-shaped faces.
Diamond features call for fullness below prominent cheekbones. Chin-skimming bobs highlight tapered foreheads.
Unsure of your face shape? Our experts can assess and recommend tailor-made styles. As Verma concludes, confidence is key – find cuts that make you feel fabulous!
