We’ve spoken about hair concerns, hacks
and styling but this video
is going back to the basics!
FACE SHAPES to help you figure out what hairstyle
& cut would be the perfect match for you!
We’ve taken your suggestions and put together this video
so in return
we’d like you to do just one small little thing
- once you’ve determined your face shape leave it in the comments below!
For you fashion fanatics we made a video
based on different jewellery that
suits each face shape that we’ll link above!
and we've taken a few clips from that video itself
to show & explain each face shape to you!
Basically there are 4 general face shapes that you could belong to
or maybe lie somewhere in between there's - OVAL
- ROUND - HEART & SQUARE
Those with an oval face should definitely consider themselves
to be lucky! You’re one that can sport
almost any hairstyle or cut
ranging from bobs to layers and even
rock a sexy fringe! If you prefer short
hair then try out a blunt bob
or lob with subtle
layers at the bottom to add some
volume and frame your face.
But if you prefer longer locks then you can go
for a light step cut and follow
the natural parting of your hair when you're opting
for any kind of hairstyle. Loose curls
or beachy waves would look amazing on you
but if you prefer your hair out of your face a simple
side braid could do wonder to accentuate your features!
A round face typically means the width
and length of your face is the same
and your cheeks are pretty prominent giving
you a rounded appearance. The key to
styling this shape is to
frame your face well and create depth
and contour by using haircuts that frame the face to make it appear more chiseled
and oval in nature. If you prefer
short hair and you’re feeling a little adventurous
a pixie cut would be
the perfect hairdo for you!
But don’t worry if you want to play it safe and subtle
long layers look equally good - just
make sure you cut the shortest layer right
below the cheekbones to add
a natural contour and frame the face very well.
Even a short fringe that ends at the eyes
or side swept bangs
would suit a round face and give it more length!
You can give yourself a quick blow dry to add style
or even throw on some accessories to
one side of the head to give the illusion of a longer face!
but I would stay away from tight tonged curls
as they make your hair appear shorter and
they will give you a rounder appearance!
If you have a heart shaped face
your bone structure will feature a broad forehead
and cheekbones and a slimmer jawline and chin.
The aim here, is to bring about some sort of
balance between the two halves by adding on
the right haircut and style. If you prefer
short hair, opt for a long bob that ends at the neck
would look amazing on you and this will immediately add more fullness to the jawline.
You can pair this with
side bangs to make your forehead look
slightly narrow and even out the shape of the face.
For longer hair, textured cuts
and layers through the bottom
half of the hair also do the same trick in
adding width to the jawline
making your face appear naturally fuller!
When you leave your hair open loose curls or waves
will really bring out your features but if you want
a fun updo twist up a bun
and accessorise it with a few twisties!
If you have extremely strong features
then you have a square shaped face
a broad forehead, wide cheekbones and an extremely
sharp jawline so make the most of it!
The haircuts & styles I’m going to talk about
will essentially soften
he appearance of these features and give you a more
flattering appearance!
If you want your hair out of your face
a nice top knot will add length to your face
but leave a few curls or strands
on either side to add an elegant touch to it!
Hopefully by the end of this you’ve discovered your face shape
so all I can say is be bold and experimental
with your hair choices and until next time
stay tuned & stay glamrs!
