A great hair style can change your entire look but it’s also true that your hair style as well depends on your face shape. Your face shape and your hair texture determine your entire look. Your hair texture whether it’s straight or wavy or curly hair determines the final look of your hair cut. For a hair style, straight hair looks a way while curly hair looks different. It determines how your hair will fall. If you just consider your face shape and ignore your hair structure totally, then you may end up with a different look you might not have imagined before. Your hair style should be such a way that even in hurry you can just tie a ponytail casually and run for your work and still look great. It should look naturally gorgeous. So, let’s check how you should get your hair cut based on your face shape and your hair texture.
Oval Face Shape:
The biggest plus point of having an oval shaped face is that you can simply carry any hair style easily. Most of the hair styles from short to long will look gorgeous.
If you have a straight hair, cut those layers to the cheeks, lips or chin based on the features you want to highlight. You can also try pairing bangs with a length to hit your collar bones or just below that. You can also go for side swept bangs to create a criss-crossing angle.
For those curly haired beauties, choppy layers works like a magic on the frizzy curls making it to fall in a sleeker shape. A bob hair style hitting close to the shoulders will definitely advantage the weight of the hair length so that you require minimal styling. If hair is not cut properly, your bob cut may turn into unflattering triangle in shape. To prevent this, layers should cut such a way that it doesn’t look bulky. If you are opting for longer hair, then try sweeping layers falling in graduated slices down the length of hair.
Round Face Shape:
Layer cur suits the best for round face shaped women. If you have straight hair, go for a side swept bang or shorter hair hitting the cheek bones and continue gradually with layers to create structure. You should avoid hair style makes your face look rounder. So prevent your hair hitting your chin.
The plus point about curls is when the hair length is longer than your chin, you can achieve a natural weight that pulls the hair down into a more elongating look.
Square Face Shape:
Since the hair strands fall against the face, make sure your hair length doesn’t end with one harsh angle right on the jaw. Now this doesn’t mean you can’t wear a bob style. Adjust it by cutting shorter layers in the backside that lengthens slowly as they come to the front.
The best hair style for a square shaped face is simply let hair to flow downwards towards the base of the neck or even longer. To add softness and elevation to the crown, opt for round layers cut in circular pattern round the top of your head.
Graduated layers grazing the cheekbones can do wonderful job by adding softness to your face. If you love bangs, then try side swept bangs to add lightness as well. If you are going for longer bangs then make sure they hit between the eye and cheekbone.
Heart Face Shape:
Bangs goes perfectly with heart shaped faces and you can choose among many types of bangs available.
If you got straight or wavy hair, prefer hair cut that hits the chin or even below it. Opt for concave hair layers to add movement and allow the thickness to make your lower face look wide. Your face is already wide at your forehead so avoid hair shorter than your chin.
If you have curly hair, its natural fullness provides counterbalance perfectly to the width at your forehead. Go for concave layers to build movement to the hair without disturbing the bottom fullness.
If you like short hair, go for a chin-length bob style which will emphasize eyes and your cheeks by creating fullness around it.
Oblong Face Shape:
Try different ways of cutting layers and bangs and give dramatic look to your oblong face. Let your bangs touch your cheekbone and let it give it great definition. Both long and short hair styles will look good but avoid extremely short and extremely long hair which can make your face look more elongated which it already is. Opt for lots of flowing layers with the shortest layer starting at the chin and the longest layers ending at the shoulders. Balance the narrow proportions of your face shape creating width which opens up and grabs attention to the face. Let the bangs end where your eyebrows end.
