A great haircut can change not only how you look but also how you feel about yourself.
We’ve likely all heard before that different hairstyles look better on different face shapes.
Still, how many of us actually know which cut is best for our face shape?
That said, curtain bangs are a great way to make a middle part work for a full face.
Plus, they’re totally ‘in’ right now.
The shape that bangs create will, instead, draw focus to your cheekbones and your eyes.
This is good news for folks with round faces because shags fit them flawlessly.
According toGlamour, though, side parts are making a triumphant return.
For round faces, face-framing layers are ideal.
Anything that creates fringing or layering around the face will achieve that."
Add a little bit of lightness surrounding your face for the perfect contour.
A medium-length haircut that falls just below your shoulders is a perfect length for a wavy look.
French bob
The French bob has to be one of the most classic medium-length haircuts out there.
It’s both edgy and carefree, low maintenance, and statement-making.
PerThe Right Hairstyles, wispy bangs are a bit uneven and less perfectly polished than some other bang styles.
Add in some short layers, and you’ve got a perfectly framed face without too much styling effort.
Honey highlights
A fresh cut is a great way to totally change your face shape.
When we say “comb-over,” we’re not talking about how your uncle covers his bald spot.
Think more along the lines of Lucy Hale’s piecey, deep-parted bob (viaStylecaster).
PerThe Right Hairstyles, go for a length that just touches your collarbone.
Give yourself that deep, messy part, and don’t be afraid of volumizing and texturizing your locks.
Well, let this be your sign to make your hair a little off-balance.
Asymmetrical curls
Asymmetry isn’tjustfor straight hair.
Often when we see the asymmetrical lob, it’s styled to be pin-straight and angular.
This definitely makes for a sharp, sophisticated, and even slightly edgy look.
Yet, an asymmetrical medium-length cut can be for curly girls, too.
That off-center look will pair perfectly with your volume to complement your face shape.
Those days are gone, much to the joy of curly gurls with full faces.
Ask your stylist to cut your curly bangs when your hair is dry.
This will help ensure that they don’t accidentally get cut too short.
Curly bangs tend to be more flattering this way."
Our advice if this sounds like you?
Consider going platinum blonde.
French bob with long curtain bangs
Few haircuts are as perpetually chic as the French bob.
That’s why we love this softer and more laidback update on the old favorite.
Plus, they’re an extra low-maintenance jot down of fringe, which works for everybody.
Opt for these instead of blunt bangs for a subtler French bob.
Wolf cut
Hand in hand with the shag is the wolf cut.
It has shorter choppy layers on the top and longer choppy layers around the sides and back."
Lately, we’ve seen variations of this cut on it-girls like Keke Palmer and Miley Cyrus.
Get yourself a mullet.
As we know, face-framing layers are ideal for a full face.
Feathering
Layers tend to be a better way to frame a fuller face than a blunt haircut.
Feathered hair is a kind of softer and less extreme version of layers, perThe Trend Spotter.
Plus, feathering works for pretty much any hair length.
Bottleneck bangs
Another day, another trendy bang style.
A blow dryer plus a round brush or a drying brush likethis oneis all it takes.
Take a page from Tessa Thompson’s book, and give your braids a deep part, perGood Housekeeping.
That’s one of the many reasons we love layered bangs.
They can be styled straight down, to the side, or even parted down the middle.
The bangs' varying lengths and angles in your hair offers versatility.
Of course, it’s “the Rachel.”
Wavy bangs
Just as curly bangs have made a splash, so have wavy bangs.
And, be sure to add a bit of texturizing spray to make your waves even better.
V-cut layers form a “v” shape at the back of your head and fall perfectly into place.
These bangs don’t need to be styled and kept up with as much as other bangs.
They look laidback and a bit edgy, and they add extra angles to your face.
PerGood Housekeeping, they’re great for thick hair and can be maintained with some leave-in conditioner.
They can be curly, curtain, choppy, wispy, and so on.
Plus, this cut can be easily styled in many different ways, making it versatile.
According to celeb hairstylist, Anh Co Tran, it “creates internal movement by taking the weight out.
It’s great for clients with thick, bulky, and coarse hair.
It also helps keep the shape and prolong the cut” (viaInStyle).
We also love pairing it with the curly bang trend for even more interest.
Baby curtain bangs
Ah yes - the inevitable combination of two huge trends has arrived.
Baby curtain bangs fall shorter, which means they won’t grow out as quickly as their longer counterpart.
It involves short layers on top of the hair, making it vaguely octopus-shaped.
That said, likely any version will add angles and dimension to your face shape.
