The Narrow Chin: Longish hair here that is full at chin level will help to balance a narrow chin.

The Triangular Head: Only a curly or wavy job will really soften a sharply defined cheekb

I wished I knew the simple rules of hair style and face shape when I was a youth. No wonder I was called a Geek, I had my hair all wrong. I wore my hair in completely the wrong way which meant that rather than complement my face it insulted my looks. I only found this out when I got much older, which was a shame as I could have avoided all that teasing.

Hair styles have become more and more whacky as time goes by, especially with the introduction of fluorescent colors and the like. You know, there must be a zillion ways to style our hair these days but I bet we all know at least one person that has a right style with the wrong face!

You see, not everyone’s face is the same shape, length, or width. Some faces are long and thin whereas others are round and wide, some are soft and others hard or angular in appearance. But a choosing the right hair style to suit your face does a lot more that just look good, it can bring out the best in your face too. A carefully chosen hairdo can help to bring out or draw away from certain facial characteristics.

Here’s what I’ve uncovered about faces and hair styles:

The thin face: Having curls or thick wavy hair at the sides will help to widen a narrow face.

The chubby round face: A simple side parting in the hair will slim down and appear to lengthen any moon face.

The caricature Chin (Strong or square): Short curly hair is best here or fullness at the crown. Both styles will take the attention away from the prominent chin.

The Narrow Chin: Longish hair here that is full at chin level will help to balance a narrow chin.

Large Snout: A big hairdo or upswept crown will make the nose much less noticeable.
