Best Hairstyles For Women Based On Face Shape by DrULifestyle: 2:02am On Sep 06, 2018
While all hairstyles can be worn according to one’s preference, some styles are more suited to certain face shapes than others. There are 3 general shapes that can describe a face; oval, square, and round.

Oval Face Shape Hairstyles

Oval faces are longer than they are wide, with a rounded hairline and a slightly more rounded jawline. Celebrities with oval faces include Beyonce and Kerry Washington. This face shape tends to look good no matter what the style, although many women prefer to draw their hair into an effortless updo.



Square Face Shape Hairstyles

Square faces tend to be wider, with a prominent jawline. This jawline is believed to contribute to being photogenic -- celebrity examples include Olivia Wilde and Angelina Jolie. Women with square-shaped faces often grow their hair out long in order to draw the eyes downward, adding length to an otherwise shorter face.



Round Face Shape Hairstyles

Round faces, sometimes also called “baby faces”, are typically the same length and width, with no sharp angles or prominent features. Celebrity examples include Viola Davis and Chrissy Teigen. The best hairstyles for round faces tend to elongate the face to make it appear more oval-shaped, a high ponytail is often the easiest way to do this, although short pixie cuts with choppy layers on top can also produce a similar effect.




For hairstyles that involve updos, care should be taken to not pull hair too tightly. While it may be tempting to get the perfect tight ponytail, the trauma of harsh grooming can result in a condition known as traction alopecia -- a form of female hair loss that even celebrities can't seem to escape about.

There are several hairstyles that can suit a square face very well. If you are looking to soften a square face, try styling hair into loose waves or straightening it all the way. When wearing hair in an up-do, leave some strands down around the face to soften the edges and create a wispy look. If you'd like to show off a strong jawline, try bangs cut straight across the forehead, or a short bob haircut. Be careful not to cut bangs too blunt, or to slick hair back too much-- these styles can look severe with this face shape.

For round faces, a quick tip is to always leave a little piece of hair untucked on one side of the face. This makes round faces appear more narrow. Parting your hair deeply to one side can also help create more angles around a round face.

Many women with round faces make the mistake of trying to hide their face shape with a lot of hair -- this actually ends up highlighting the roundness of their face. In reality, this face shape is more suited for medium-length hairstyles, especially those with long bangs framing the sides of the face.
