How to find the best haircuts for different face shapes? If you are wondering which haircut fits you best, then you should orientate yourself to your face shape. If you tie your hair back and look head-on in the mirror, then you can easily determine your face shape.
Stand or sit straight in front of the mirror and outline your face in the mirror using lipstick, soap, chalk, marker, or any other tool that can be removed later.
Take a ruler, a piece of paper, and a pen. Apply a sheet of paper to your face along the main lines and make marks on it, and then draw segments along the ruler and measure the distance between them.
Depending on the proportions you can easily determine what your face shape is and choose the right haircut.
About one and a half times as long as wide, the cheekbones are slightly wider than the chin and forehead (like Kendall Jenner).
Women with an oval face are lucky, because they can wear almost any haircuts. Short or long their hairstyles, wavy or smooth, these women are always beautiful.
Round hairline and chin, round cheeks, open face (like Selena Gomez).
If you have a round face, you should optically create length with your haircut.
A long bob with side parting is great for a round face, or even shoulder-length straight hair with a side bang. With a long step cut, you can also make your face longer and narrower.
Straight hairline, angular jaw, open face. You can still distinguish between square and rectangular shapes, depending on how wide your face is (like Keira Knightley).
A square face should be visually stretched and softened. That's why straight, geometric haircuts are a no-go. The haircut that suits you should make your chin look softer. And that works best with shorter steps on the cheeks, which gently play around the face and give your long hair look the necessary contour.
A loose bang also makes the face look more feminine and delicate. The hair length should go at least to just below the chin and the side vertex sits better than the middle parting.
Wider, angular faces look softer with longer hair and volume on the top of the head. The longer, rectangular faces, on the other hand, are better served with haircuts that add more fullness to the face, such as luscious curls.
This face shape is characterized by a narrow chin and a broader forehead with a hairline in the form of two bows (like Reese Witherspoon).
For this face shape, all haircuts that make the forehead a little narrower and the chin area a little wider are recommended. Bob makes the face narrower at the top and puts more emphasis on a narrow chin.
Curls are a beautiful addition to the heart shaped face, they look very elegant and emphasize the feminine character of this face shape. Even the short haircuts fit perfectly to the overall look.
Slim face, with possibly pointed chin (like Taylor Swift).
Here, the medium-length look fits perfectly: a side parting or a bang will make the face look rounder and even steps will make the look softer.
If you wear your straight hair too long, it also visually extends the facial contours, so you should grab the scissors with a clear conscience and cut the splendor to shoulder length. Long faces can also wear the classic tied back ponytail.
