Here is a rough guide on face shapes and the haircuts that suit them :
Heart :
This means that the length from temple to temple is larger than the distance of you jaw line. Chin-length and longer styles will be best suited to your shape, with a slight side-parting. Why not also
try a fringe, but only a gentle wispy one. For ideas, look out for pictures of Reese Witherspoon, Christina Ricci and Kate Beckinsale.
Round :
Your face is as wide as it is long, this is only a general thing, it may vary slightly. Try to create a look with volume at the top of the head, and a style that is longer than chin-length.Off
center partings look great this will all help to make your head look longer. Celebrities to inspire you are Kate Winslet, Charlotte Church and Kirsten Dunst.
Oval :
Similar length across each area of your face, with a rounded hairline on your forehead. Most hairstyles look good on an oval face shape, and pulling your hair back from your face looks great.
Try to avoid a heavy fringe as this will effectively 'hide' your face. Those celebrities with oval shaped faces are Mariah Carey, Cindy Crawford and Julia Roberts.
Square :
Your face is as wide as it is long. Short to medium-length hair are the best cuts for your shape. Curls will look great on your face, adding a softer edge. Try to avoid styles that are too straight. Celeb cuts to copy are Demi Moore, Mandy Moore
and Sandra Bullock.
