Oval
Oval shaped faces work with pretty much any style. But the best are long layers, gentle waves, or a square bob.
Heart-Shaped
If you have a heart-shaped face, try out bangs with longer, wavy layers. If you’re looking for a style for shorter hair, a short bob is also very flattering.
Round
For round faces, a long bob or long straight style gives the illusion of elongation. Large curls or waves are also a great way to add volume to your look.
Oblong
Oblong or rectangular faces are perfect for long layers or feathered fringe. A gentle curl will create movement to offset sharper angles of the face.
Diamond
Diamond shape faces are often associated with high cheekbones. For this face shape, try a short, cropped look or bangs and light layers around the face.
Square
A square face works well with the same styles as oblong or rectangular. Side-swept bangs and long layers are a can’t lose strategy.
Hair Texture
The texture of your hair refers to how thin, thick, curly, or straight your hair is. You can use your hair texture to find the perfect hairstyle.
For thick hair, a shorter cut will feel light and low maintenance. But if you want to show off the volume, you can wear it longer with layers around the face.
Thin or fine hair can be challenging to work with, but cutting it to shoulder length and adding layers will create volume.
Curly hair allows you to try out many different lengths and styles effortlessly. The messy, unruly look is very trendy.
For straight hair, you can play around with different lengths for layers. This will help give more body to your hair so that it looks fuller. Short, angular bobs elevate straight hair.
