Haircut: How to Choose the Right One for Your Face

Among the various types of haircuts, there is always a right model and length to accentuate or soften the features and enhance the face. Therefore, one of the first steps before changing the look is to know your own face. By looking at whether it has curved, straight lines or a mixture of the two, you can draw a profile and then define the ideal haircut for each face shape.

Round face haircut

The round face has well-defined angles with only the smoothest jaw region. This face shape combines with cuts where the length is below the chin line and without too much volume. Because it is a shorter, broader face with the most delicate features, the round face haircut should be layered and with any type of bangs to bring smoother contour. Bet on the types ranging from the drop on the forehead to the side fringe.


Oval Face Haircut

With a broad cheek-shaped shape and narrow chin, the oval face is the most widely accepted variety of haircuts. The length of the oval face haircut can be from short to long and the bangs are optional. One tip to keep your face from looking pointed is to add more volume to the hair just below your chin.

Square Face Haircut

This face shape has as its striking features the longer forehead and chin. Therefore, square face haircutting should be more basic and fringed. Avoid the very short ones and choose only medium to long length cuts as they value the strokes well and give a smoothed to the elongated shape of the square face.

Rectangular Face Haircut

The rectangular face is similar in shape to the square face, except that it is longer and narrower at the chin line. The best haircut for rectangular face is the peaked with medium bangs or half bangs on the forehead. Avoid long fringe models so that straight lines do not show rectangular traces.

Triangular face haircut

With the widest forehead and small chin, the triangular face combines with shorter or chin-length cuts with layers and volume. The triangular face haircut may also have a peaked, mid-length and side bangs.
