Face framing layers that follow the curves of your cheekbones and jawline will always create a 'hair contouring' look.
While a straight, slicked-back pony does draw attention to round features, a lightly teased style with wavy texture and a tiny side part is a slimming and ultra-flattering hairdo.
Layered bobs with texture are perfect for adding volume and breadth to a long face shape.
A voluminous topknot or ballerina bun provides a vertical illusion, making your face appear longer and slimmer.
A sloppy, beachy braid with volume at the roots lengthens, lifts, and lengthens the facial shape.
Slick the lighter side under the ear and align the portion with the arch or tail of your brow.
This simple low bun is the answer. Face-framing waves elongate the face and make it seem classy enough for a wedding or black-tie event.
To produce a neat symmetrical line that will give you an elevated impression, line up the angle of your ponytail with your cheekbone and top of your ear.
Large strands of hair from above each ear should be softly gathered and pinned to the back of your head. Assemble the parts so that they fall lightly over your ears.
Shaggy layers are ideal for this since you can simply experiment with the texture with various style tools to give it more substance.
Short hair may also be slimming if it has a lot of structure and volume, making your face appear smaller in proportion.
