The ideal hair style for you depends on a lot of factors, but one of the most important is the shape of your face.

While most people think of their face as generally round, this is not the case. The truth is that there are six distinct facial shapes — oval, rectangle, round, square, heart and triangle — and each benefits from a different type of hair style.

Hair Styles for Each  Facial Shape

Oval – If you have an oval-shaped face, you are fortunate because this shape works with just about any hairstyle, including Brazilian keratin hair straightening treatments. Examples of women with an oval face include Beyonce and Jessica Alba.

Rectangle — If you have a rectangular shaped face, or more of a boxy look like Sandra Bullock or Lucy Liu, medium to short hair styles will work best.

Round — People with genuinely round faces, such as Cameron Diaz or Kate Winslet, look best with a hair style that has height at its crown. Generally, this look works best with a length that is below the chin level because it helps lengthen the appearance of your face. Part the hair off-center or to the side for the best effect.

Square — If  you have a square face, you want to choose a hair style that frames your facial features while softening the square corners. Women with square faces include Gwyneth Paltrow and Demi Moore.

Heart — Matching a heart-shaped face — such as Reese Witherspoon’s or Scarlett Johansson’s — with the best hairstyle is easy: Always go for chin-length hair so that it broadens the appearance of the face at the chin where it is needed most.

The Best Hair Style for Any Face
