How to choose your haircut depending on the shape of your face
To feel great about yourself, it’s important you choose the right haircut.
Haircut should be in the same style with the kind of clothes a women wears and especially ahould represent her personality.
To choose the right haircut you should take into consideration your lifestyle, hair type and texture and shape of your face.
We present below six types of face shapes. Find your face shape and follow our advice.
Round
This type is characterized by a round chin that makes your face seem broad (see photo Carla Bruni). A little long and a bit of height is indicated for an ideal haircut, so it will elongate the face. High hairstyles are a good choice, but you have to leave some hair down. A good technique is the haircut in stairs so that it frames the face .
Avoid: Curls, especially the hair from the cheeks, fringe because it will reduce the face and will increase its depth and roundness.
Pear
The jaw line is very broad, narowing towards the forehead, this face type needs more width in the forehead and more volume in the top of your head. It is recommended to avoid short haircuts and put your hair in a ponytail. Volume of the top of the head must be reduced. Emphasizing the forehead, will draw attention to the ears.
Oval
Is considered the ideal shape for the simetric proportions and lack of angles. Any haircut should be tried going from super short to very long. Standing as evidence are Keira Knightley, Sienna Miller, J. Lo and Jessica Alba.You can try a long classic , parted in the middle or combed to one side and felling in a cascade on the shoulders . The best solution is the haircut in stairs to highlight eyes and cheeks. Avoid styles that offer more voulum in the top the head.
The chin is sharper. Asymmetrical hairstyles match this physiognomy- they highlight the cheeks. If your face is very long, you need a fringe, which will diminish the sense of lenght. And the recommended styles are round and textured stripes. Ask your hairdresser to shingle in steps. It’s good to stay away from short haircuts on the chin level and any other styles that lengthen further away your face.
Diamond
The forehead is more visible at this type of face, haircuts must therefore increase volume in parts and mask the jaws. If your fringe has volume will give the sensation of a wide face, which is not recommended.
Square
Straight lines characterize this face. Short haircuts are not recommended for a square face, because of their hardness, more harsh and straight lines of the face. Curls diminish the appearance of rugged peaks of the face.
Sweeten with sharp lines and angles in steps or round haircuts. The hair can be long enough to fall on the shoulders or shorter. Avoid straight haircuts or fringe on the entire forehead.
