Determine Your Face Shape First

Pull your hair back, look straight into the mirror, and trace the outline of your face. You will fall into one of these main categories:

Characterized by a sharp, strong jawline and equal width across the forehead and cheekbones. Considered the most masculine face shape.

Best Cuts: Undercut, Classic Pompadour, Buzz Cut, Side Part. Keep the sides short and clean to highlight your jaw.

2. Round Face Shape

Similar length and width, with soft jaw angles and circular cheekbones.

Best Cuts: Quiff, Pompadour, Textured Spikes. You want cuts that add height and volume on top to elongate your face.

3. Oval Face Shape

Symmetrical and well-proportioned, the oval shape fits almost any hairstyle.

Strong cheekbones with a narrow forehead and pointed chin.

Best Cuts: Textured Crop, Side Part, Fringes. Hairstyles that add width to the forehead and chin look best.
