The best hairstyles for different face shapes

The best hairstyles for round face shapes are ones that add height to the top and create an oval appearance.

For oval faces, almost any hairstyle will work, but adding volume to the sides can balance out the face shape.

Square faces look great with soft, wavy curls and styles that add width to the forehead.

Heart-shaped faces should avoid too much volume at the top of the head, and opt for styles that add width to the chin.

Hairstyles that add volume at the crown, such as an updo, are great for diamond face shapes as they help to elongate the face.
