Dear ladies, the heat of the summer day is a perfect excuse to adopt a new haircut. But the real matter is to know how to choose the right cut for your face shapes and hair type. Are your hair straight, wavy, curly? and what about the texture and the volume: soft, medium, or thick? Here are all the secrets you should know to have the perfect haircut.

The oval face

To try:

If you got an oval face a lot of haircut will be suitable to you because your face is well balanced in equal proportion, which is convenient for any hairstyle.

To avoid:

All the hairstyles or haircuts with a long fringe or rebel style. You can lose face behind the hair and add an inappropriate dimension to your face .

The long face

To try:

The goal is to balance the length of your face with a voluminous hairstyle that break the shape of your face: waves are perfect to volumize your haircut.

To avoid:

The pixie haircut or boyfriend hairstyle is not convenient. In fact, those styles are known to emphasize the shape of your chin and lengthen your jawbone, which is the opposite of the effect you are looking for.

The Round Face

To try:

Try any hairstyle or hair cut with volume and specially on top of the roots, you can add long peace of hair or long haircut over the chin, to lengthen and give to your facial features an oval face look.

To avoid:

Hairstyle or haircut which following the round shape of the face and accentuates this feature is to avoid. Also, do not choose really short fringe or high volume in the ears area.

The Square Face

To try:

The goal is to lighten the look of your strong jawbone, creating the illusion of a longer face, giving it a rectangular shape. You can then choose between those different haircut: the rounded fringe for a rounded impression from the top of your head; the long cut, at least at the same level of the shoulders.

To avoid:

Here volume is not wishes, prefer straight hair to waves, to lengthen the square shape. Do not cut at the jawbone level, it will accentuate its line.

Here her brushing is well done but do not correspond to her facial shape: the waves accentuate the jawbones feature.

The Heart shape face

To try:

Medium hairstyle or haircut till chin will fit perfectly for heart-shapes faces, as much as long hair. I recommend hair till the chin, which is the best way to provide a feeling of volume exactly where it’s needed.

The Diamond Face

To try:

Diamond face type is well balanced, you can experiment a variety of hairstyle and almost any hairstyle is suitable. Fringe that fall around the center of the forehead, side long fringe or side swept fringes are convenient for this face shape. My advice is to pull your hair behind your ears to show off your cheekbones.

避免:

To avoid:

Avoid the heavy or straight fringes that completely hide the forehead, same as flat styles where the hair is too straight and falls around your face in a straight line. Too much volume on the sides of your face and short hairstyles are not recommended.

Ladies, I hope you will now be able to identify yourself in those facial features and that you will know which hairstyle is the best one for you to be radiant in any occasion.
