An oval face shape is the most versatile face. Luckily for you, you can pull off almost any look and any length. Whatever the length, wear your hair layered near your cheekbones, lips or chin to highlight whichever of these features you choose.

Long or Oblong Shaped Face

You should avoid overly long or particularly short cuts as these will elongate your face. If wearing your hair past your shoulders, make sure you have it cut into layers particularly around the face.

Round Shaped Face

If your face is round you should opt for styles that fall right below your chin or those that add volume on top. Go for soft, graduated layered hairstyles that will make your face look slimmer. Bangs can be flattering, keep them long and wispy with tapered ends to deplete from the roundness of your face.

You should avoid hairstyles that add bulk or weight to the side of your face. If you wear your hair short avoid one-length, blunt cuts that emphasize the roundness of your face.

Square Shaped Face
