Love My Image
The following information is an excerpt from the DVD series Love My Image. Hairstyle, Real Hair Extensions and Eyewear Secrets If you’ve ever struggled with trying to find the right hairstyle (and I think most women have at some point in their lives), you’re about to discover how easy it really can be!
If you’ve given up on your hair you’re about to read some encouraging information. You see, just like choosing the right style of glasses, the right hairstyle is based on one key principle: the shape of your face. That’s it. Now that you know that, all you need to do is learn the basic “rules” that go with your particular face shape. First though, let’s talk about the different face shapes & the characteristics of each. 1. The Round Face: this is a full-looking face with a round hairline and chin. The cheeks/ears tend to be the widest point. 2. The Square Face: this face shape has a strong, square jaw line and usually a square hairline. 3. The Oval Face: the oval shape has a gently rounded hairline and is only slightly narrower at the jaw than at the temples. Very balanced. 4. The Diamond Face: the widest point on this face is at the cheekbones, and is equally narrow at the jaw line & forehead. 5. The Oblong Face: this face is long and slender. The area just below the cheekbones and the forehead are about the same width. Could have a high forehead or a narrow chin. 6. The Triangular Face: has a dominant jaw line and narrows at the cheekbones and temples. 7. The Heart Shaped Face: the face is widest at the hairline and temples and narrows to a small chin. The opposite of the triangular face. Now that we’ve covered the characteristics of the different face shapes… Let’s Get Started! As we discuss this further we’ll talk about some do’s and don’ts for hairstyling and picking out the proper eye wear. The Round Face: The goal of the person with the round face is to lengthen it. This can be done by adding height and fullness at the crown. Layering will help to achieve this. An off centre part will help to make the face appear longer.
