Which hairstyle fits your face?

The best hairstyle is one that complements your face shape, but did you know that there are some hairstyles that suit anyone and everyone? Hairstyles are about symmetry and shaping hair to complement your individual face shape, says Candice Buckett of Diesel Salon in San Diego. Your line of beauty "Whether you have an oblong, round, square or heart-shaped face, your hairstyle must flatter your line of beauty," says Buckett. Your line of beauty is the diagonal angle from your chin to your ear (the same line we accentuate when contouring with cheek blush or bronzer), and every woman's hairstyle should complement this feature. The face shapes Oblong Adding volume to the sides will help the face to appear rounder. Layered hairstyles are best. And wavy or curly textures are great to help soften the oblong. If you have an oblong face shape and the chin is the predominate area, create soft layers and avoid extra lightness or darkness when coloring, says award-winning color expert Sherry Ratay. If the predominate feature is the forehead, go for shattered bangs and create a darker reflection of color underneath the bangs. Round The best hairstyle for a round face shape is one that creates movement and lines in the middle of the cheeks, making them appear slimmer. Middle parts or styling the hair with height and fullness at the crown helps elongate a round face. EXPRET TIP: A single-length cut and center will slim a round face, says celebrity and editorial stylist Gad Cohen. Square A strong jaw line defines the square face shape. Complementary hairstyles help feminize this feature. Round layering with any length is recommended -- and a bob that accentuates the jaw line should be avoided. EXPERT TIP: Square face shapes should use color to create soft diagonal lines in the layers around the forehead and chin areas, says Ratay. "Always create ribbons of colors diagonally, so the eye is traveling around and not up and down." Heart-shaped Length and body in a hairstyle compensate for the narrowing of the chin. The best styles are shoulder length with light layering or below the shoulders with extra layering. EXPERT TIP: Heart shapes should keep the narrow, swept bang -- a throwback to Twiggy, says Cohen. Add some volume to the bottom with waves or curls to fill out your tapered chin. Angled, medium-length hair Dana Fiore, master stylist at Louis Licari Salon in NYC, encourages clients to get a haircut based on their specific face shape, but says that some hairstyles do work for everyone. "Medium-length hair with appropriate face-framing angles can suit almost every face shape," says Fiore. Long, loose bangs Creative Director Alan Gold of The Haig Co. & Salon agrees. "Classic symmetrical hairstyles with long, loose layered bangs grazing the bridge of the nose gives great flexibility to a style and are flattering for almost all face shapes." This one-size-fits-all hairstyle is versatile, too -- it can be worn on or off the face. "This flexibility gives the option to create shape for all face types," adds Gold. "Just grazing the shoulders leaves many flattering options." Curls Toni Love, an Atlanta-based hair-loss specialist loves curls. "Curly hair never goes out of style and works with all face types," says Love. Curls camouflage flaws such as a wide forehead or a long face. They can be pulled up or back to narrow a wide face, and they add volume to flat, fine hair. "Curls are timeless." Layers, layers and more layers Layers are the key, says Natasha Sunshine of the Byu-ti Salon in LA, and the more the better. "Scarlett Johansson's textured bob is a great example of a haircut that many face shapes can wear well." EXPERT TIP: Your hair is an accessory of who you are, no matter what your face shape, says Ratay. Once you've chosen the right lines of design, follow with the perfect hair color for your unique skin tone, eye color and personality! Go for it! Stylist Heather Allen of Beyond Beauty Salon recognizes the different needs of various face shapes but cautions clients not to get "stuck" because of it. "Allow your stylist to explain options for you," says Allen. "Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone. When it comes to hairstyles, you're never 'stuck'!"
