Head and Face Shapes

Question 1

Round face

Answer 1

Avoid styles that add width and height

Styles that finish below the chin or come on to the face are more suitable

Question 2

Oblong face

Answer 2

Encourage width - avoid height, as this will accentuate the length of the face
A soft style and fringe will compliment the face shape

Question 3

Square fave

Answer 3

Bringing hair on to or around the jaw line, so bringing hair on to or around the jaw can soften this.
Texturising the perimeter of the cut also adds tone

Question 4

Heart face

Answer 4

Avoid adding any extra width at the temple area
To balance the style out you can add width at the narrowest point, the chin
Avoid styles that finish at jaw level, as they will accentuate the shape

Question 5

Flat occipital bone

Answer 5

Add width with graduation in this area

Avoid straight, flat styles as they will accentuate the lack of definition at the back of the head
