Discover the Perfect Haircut for Your Face Shape!
At Haven Holistic Salon, I believe that the right haircut can make a world of difference in how you feel and look. Understanding your face shape is key to finding a style that complements your unique features. While these are age-old guidelines, they can be followed or tossed out entirely—your personal style is what matters most. As a stylist, I am trained to create balance and symmetry, but if that's not your jam, I'm more than happy to break the rules and let you be you!
Let’s dive into the best haircuts for each face shape!
Oval Face Shape
Oval faces are versatile and can pull off almost any style. If you have an oval face, you’re in luck! Consider these options:
Long Layers: Adds movement and dimension.
Blunt Bob: Showcases your balanced proportions.
Side-Swept Bangs: Softens your look and adds a touch of elegance.
Round Face Shape
For round faces, the goal is to create the illusion of length and definition. Here are some flattering choices:
Long, Layered Cuts: Adds vertical lines and elongates the face.
Side Parts: Breaks up the roundness and adds angles.
Pixie Cut: A bold choice that adds height and structure.
Square Face Shape
Square faces benefit from styles that soften strong jawlines. Consider these haircuts:
Soft, Wispy Bangs: Adds a gentle frame to your face.
Medium to Long Layers: Creates softness and movement.
Curly or Wavy Styles: Adds volume and rounds out the sharp angles.
Heart Face Shape
Heart-shaped faces look great with styles that balance a wider forehead and a narrower chin. Try these cuts:
Chin-Length Bobs: Adds width at the jawline for balance.
Side-Swept Bangs: Softens the forehead.
Long Layers: Keeps the volume around the lower part of the face.
Diamond Face Shape
For diamond-shaped faces, the goal is to highlight your cheekbones and soften your angles. Here are some ideas:
Chin-Length Bobs: Softens the cheekbones and jawline.
Side Parts: Adds width to the forehead.
Layered Cuts: Adds volume around the chin and forehead.
Oblong Face Shape
Oblong faces look best with cuts that add width and volume. Consider these styles:
Long Layers with Waves: Adds width and movement.
Curtain Bangs: Shortens the length of the face.
Chin-Length Bobs: Adds width and balances the face shape.
