To help you always pick the most flattering hairstyles for your face shape, we reached out to sought-after hair professional Nate Rosenkranz for his expert advice. While it complements mostly any face shape, it’s especially great for women with round faces who want to achieve a more oval illusion. Do not get a blunt cut as it would accentuate your square jaw line. For this pixie hairstyle, get a soft layered cut. Short layers are stacked at the back to create a round shape. If you have a square shaped face, then you have a strong angular jawline and your face measures about the same from top to bottom and from side to side. To determine your face shape, you'll want to examine three criteria: the widest part of your face (forehead, cheeks, jaw), your jawline (round, square, pointy), and the length of your face (short or long). This stacked bob with sharp front corners includes front corners that are purposefully cut to elongate the face. If you've ever tried the trick of tracing your face in the mirror, only to be left staring at a squiggly blob that resembles a puddle or fluffy cloud more than any sort of recognizable shape, we feel you. And purchasing so many products (like sunglasses) or figuring out the best hairstyle for you (we've been there) is based on this elusive shape that isn't entirely simple to understand. The angle of the jaw is sharp rather than rounded. The best hairstyles for heart faces are those that add volume and width to the chin area, creating balance with the forehead. Hairstyles for Heart Faces: Heart-shaped faces have a wider forehead and a narrower chin, with high cheekbones. Square: All measurements are fairly similar. Avoid hairstyles that are too blunt or angular, as this can emphasize the squareness of the face. Much like achieving the perfect messy bun or mastering liquid eyeliner, figuring out your face shape sounds a lot easier than it actually is. Short, ballooning cuts such as chin-length bobs can work against this face shape by making the face appear even more circular, so oftentimes, longer cuts are. Heart: Forehead measures greater than the cheekbones and jawline.
