Face shape is the deciding factor to choose a new hairstyle. People often follow the latest hairstyle without thinking whether that would look good or not. Face shape differs from person to person and there's a particular hairstyle that would do wonders for it. Many of us actually don't know the shape of their face. To find out the shape of your face, do the following measurement:
1.Measure your face with tape of ruler.
2.Measure your face across your jaw line and then across the top of your cheekbones. The measurement should extend from one edge to the exact point on the other side.
3.Measure across your forehead at the widest point. The widest point is about halfway between the eyebrows and the hairline.
4.Measure from the tip of your face line to the bottom of your chin.
5.Record the measurement
Result: You have a Round Face if it is as wide as it is long. This may vary a little but generally the measurement is close.
The haircut of the round faces should be to minimize the roundness of the face and increases the appearance of length. The hairstyle should compliment the appearance and basic geometry of the individual. Read through our hair styles for round faces:
