Bad haircuts... We've all been there! From terrible buzzcuts to uneven layers, some of us have had it worse than others. However, the instant regret when looking it in the salon mirror and the pain of having to grow it out for months is one we're all familiar with. So what if we told you that it didn't have to be like that? Finding your dream hairstyle is possible, all you need to do is determine your face shape. Once you do, stepping out of the salon will never be more pleasing.
Round face
If the width and length of your face is approximately the same and you have wide cheeks, that's a round face. The ideal hairstyle for such face shapes is a choppy chin length bob or flowing centre parted hair. As they are both structured 'dos, they take away from the face and add definition to your locks.
Heart shape face
The most definitive feature of a heart shaped face is a pointed chin and wide forehead. If you are the proud owner of the heart shape, the right hairstyle for you is a ruffled pixie or a shoulder-length long bob with a side swept fringe. It works like magic to keep the attention on your eyes and cheek area!
Square face
If your most prominent facial feature is your strong, squarish jawline, then you have a square shaped face. The hairstyle we suggest is long, sweeping tresses with layers that start around the neck as this diverts some from the jawline and focuses attention on your other features.
Oval face
Oval shaped faces have wide foreheads and faces that taper towards the chin. While most hairstyles look great on this shape, the wrong one can make it look longer than it really is. Hence, we recommend a blunt bob or a shoulder length lob that will frame your face to perfection.
Diamond face
If the widest point of your face is the temples and you have an angular chin, then you have a diamond shaped face. The right hairstyle for a diamond shaped face is a graduated bob or tousled waves that give the appearance of a wider jaw.
