A few tips on how to style curls and strands according to the shape of the face

To make the hairstyle pleasing, you need to take into account an important point – the shape of the face.

  • If you have a high forehead, you need to cover it with bangs. Oblique bangs will make the face narrow.
  • Round face owners, it is worth giving up smooth hairstyles, as they will emphasize the shape of the circle. The strands released from the face will also help to correct the shape. Don’t make them too long. Let them not reach the shoulder, but they will be just below the chin.
  • For rectangular face shape, the corners need to be smoothed with strands. Hide the cheekbone line and the corners of the jaw and your face will become visually narrower, and your eyes will be bigger.
  • If the face is oval – congratulations! Any hairstyle will suit you!
