Here’s The Best Haircut for You, Depending on Your Face Shape

Choosing the perfect haircut can enhance your features and overall look. One factor you must consider is your face shape, as different styles complement different shapes uniquely. No matter your head shape, there’s a haircut that can accentuate your best features and bring out your natural beauty. You’ll find the best haircut based on your face shape as you swipe through.

Oval

The oval face shape is well-balanced, with slightly wider cheekbones. It gently narrows at the forehead and jaw. Long layers complement this shape, as they enhance the natural symmetry and softness of the face.

Round

A round face is almost as wide as it is long, with full cheeks and a rounded chin. A hairstyle that works well is a long bob (lob) with side-swept bangs. This cut adds angles and lengthens the face, creating a more oval appearance.

Square

Square faces have a strong, angular jawline and an equally broad forehead. If you have this shape and want a perfect hairstyle that suits it, try a layered bob that hits just below the jawline. It softens the strong angles of the face.

Oblong

An oblong face is more in length than width and features a straight jawline. If you have this shape, a good choice is to go for a shoulder-length cut with layers starting at the chin. Your face gains more width that way, balancing the length.

Triangle

Like the shape, a triangular face is characterized by a slender forehead and a broader jawline. You can’t go wrong with a pixie cut with volume at the top. By adding width to the forehead, it balances the jawline.

Pear

Pear-shaped faces have narrow foreheads and wider jawlines, similar to the triangle shape but with softer jawlines. Complement this shape with a shoulder-length cut with layers starting at the jawline. The upper part of the face will have more volume.

Diamond

A diamond-shaped face has a slender forehead and jawline and broader cheekbones. Hairstyles that suit this shape typically add width at the forehead and chin, balancing the cheekbones. We highly recommend a layered cut with side-swept bangs.

Heart

You can also call this an inverted triangle, as it has a broad forehead and narrow jawline. Can you picture this head shape with a long, layered cut with face-framing layers? It will soften the forehead and add volume around the jawline.
