Every haircut is a new story, a fresh start.
Hair is the final touch; it brings an outfit together and lifts confidence.
You need to help your clients find their “style”.
It’s not about giving them a haircut that’s trending. It’s about finding the one that suits their face structure and enhances features.
This will be the only guide you need to discover your client’s signature style and craft a look that builds personal aesthetic.
Let’s look at the common types of face shapes and styles that work best with them.
- Oval face
It’s considered to be the most versatile face shape. It suits a wide variety of hairstyles. With a longer length, defined cheekbones and a rounded chin, it allows for easy experimenting with different looks. Long layers, bobs, long bangs are some flattering options.
- Square face
It’s known for its strong and angular jawline. The even width across the face creates a sense of balance and symmetry. Soft, wavy cuts and long layers can enhance and soften facial features, giving a warmer look.
- Round face
It’s considered like a square face shape but with gentler and rounded features. To add a slimming touch, try long haircuts with curls, soft layered bobs, even a bold pixie cut for a fresh, flattering look.
- Heart-shaped face
Heart-shaped face is defined with a broader forehead and a pointed chin. Delicate and striking. To bring out a sense of balance, consider blunt or side-swept bangs, flowing wavy layers, or a classic chin-length bob.
If the forehead feels a little longer, a chic fringe can beautifully complement the facial features.
- Oblong or rectangular face
If the face shape is longer than it is wide, opt for medium length cut off, soft angles and waves, it can help bring balance. Curtain bangs are another lovely option to frame the face. Adding volume at the sides and ends can create the illusion of width, bringing a soft, flattering finish to overall look.
- Diamond Face
A diamond – shaped face is one of the most striking, defined by high cheekbones, a narrower forehead, and a pointed chin. Short, cropped cuts or longer styles with soft, face-framing layers work beautifully to highlight these features. Bangs that fall at the cheekbone could be a finishing touch.
