Round Face Shape
The key to a flattering hairstyle on a round face is reducing the roundness making the face appear longer. Adele adds height to lengthen her face, she backcombs her large beehive softening the look with a wavy fringe.
Kelly Clarkson has chosen a shorter hairstyle for her round face. Kelly’s long graduated bob is a perfect hair style choice for her round face. Her hair has been tapered in tighter at the back and the front has been cut slightly longer. This elongates her face making har face appear narrower and slimmer.
Long hair is the most flattering hair length so is perfect for round faces as long hair will naturally make the face appear longer and thinner. Mila Kunis’ off centre parting adds softness to her curly hairstyle.
Hairstyles for Long Face Shapes
Adding width and body to your hairstyle will make a long face appear more in proportion. Charlize Theron adds body and large waves to widen her hair and make her long face shape appear more in proportion.
Kate Beckinsale wears her long straight hair with a blunt fringe. Kate’s fringe is vital to her long straight hairstyle as it shortens her face and hides a long forehead making it appear more proportionate.
Sarah Jessica Parker wears her upstyle quite low and tight and wide, meaning it will shorten and widen her face which guides us to believe she has the perfect face shape.
Hair Cuts for Oval Face Shapes
Jennifer Aniston’s layers accentuate her cheekbones which makes this a very flattering hairstyle for her oval face shape.
Katherine Heigl’s deep side parting and loose bun are a great look for her strawberry blonde hair and oval face shape. The positiong of Katherine’s upstyle keeps her hair proportionate which is vital to this face shape.
Rhianna’s hair has been cut short at the back and sides with lots of length kept on top. Rhianna wears fringe swept to the side which flatters her face and softens her potentially ‘hard’ haircut, which gives her a more feminine look.
