Face Shape and Hair
Figuring out what face shape you have can help you find long hairstyles that suit you best. The main idea is to focus on creating volume wherever your face narrows, making an overall oval shaped silhouette. Long hair adds length, but once you are familiar with your shape, you can manipulate width and height with adding volume to the crown or sides with various hairstyles and haircuts.
The Seven Basic Face Shapes Your Best Cuts and Styles Oval Perfect shape for any cut or style, with the exception of choppy or heavy bangs.
Square Softened and complimented by layered cuts and styles of various lengths throughout hair.
Rectangular Similar to square, softened by layers, however looks best with less volume near the crown.
Round Concentrate on adding volume to the crown and stay away from looks that add too much width to the sides of the face, next to the ears.
Heart Concentrate on adding volume to the chin area to round the siloheutte, or try sweeping bangs to balance the forehead.
Triangle Opposite from the heart, create volume and top-heavy layers to balance the face.
Diamond Create volume around the top and bottom, but not the sides, around the cheeks or ears.
