Hair Styles - This is the only place you need for hairstyles
Before you browse our gallery we recommend that you read through the advice on choosing a style that will compliment your face shape.
To determine your best hairstyles for you firstly you need to determine what shape your face actually is. It may not be one exact type, in fact it will more than likely be a mixture of two or maybe even more but it should resemble one more the others
In front of a mirror, pull your hair off your face by wetting it and combing it back or tying it at the back.
Take a pace away from the mirror or, use a photograph of yourself facing straight into the camera with your hair off your face as above.
Draw an outline of your face with lipstick on the mirror, on transparent paper or on the photo itself.
Now look at your outline and compare it to the options (short synopsis is below)
Round
- Round hairline and chin line,
wide face and round cheeks
If you have a round face
shape, the goal here is to slim the face. Hair below the chin line should be
worn with a face-lengthening center parting. For hair above the chin line, wear
an off-center parting to break up the roundness.
Square
- straight hairline,
angular jaw with wide face
Your hairstyle should
try to soften the sharp angle of your jaw line and minimize a squared-off
forhead look. Hairstyles that emphasize the cheekbones are most flattering, so
short layers (cut into longer hair) that swing foreward onto cheekbones will
look great.
