Best Hairstyles For Square Faces in 2010
Strong, square jaw lines make this look slightly more masculine than other facial shapes, and softening the lines is a great way to create balance. Here are some basic tips to flattering your facial features.
Short to medium cuts with waves or roundness to the hair will flatter your straight-lined features the most. Wispy bangs offer softer lines that draw the eye away from a square face. Also, you may consider an off-center part with some height to your hair as part of your overall look because that will offset any harsher lines. You have a very symmetrical shape which will benefit from the elongated effects of raising the hair a little bit. And again, if you have straight hair, you might consider a little curl or wave to help achieve a nice balance with your straight features.
Try to avoid long straight styles that accentuate your jawbone. And stay away from the linear bang cuts or the down-the-center parts in your hairstyles also. You want to break up some of the symmetrical features in your face, not emphasize them! You can wear a layered bob, but don’t end it at the chin. Make the cut above or below the jaw line to soften the look. Adding a little height and volume towards the top of your head will balance out a wider jaw as well.
Whatever you do, a little research online can help. Look at celebrities that have a square face, and use this article to ponder their hair styles. Then, bring in some pictures to your stylist and be bold when you choose your perfect style!
