The first step to your ultimate hairstyle is to figure out what the shape of your face is, and this is how you do it. Before we start, get a tape measure; it ll come in handy. Of course, you can do without one, but measuring and recording each measurement will make things easier than trying to go by sight alone. These are the measurements you ll need to take: Take a measurement from one of your eyebrow peaks to the other side s peak. You need to start at the sharpest end of one cheekbone and measure across to the other. Take a measurement from the under your ear where the jaw is angled upward, to the tip of your chin, and multiple that by two. Take a measurement from the very tip of your chin to the center of your hairline. UltraFX10.com 6
Once you ve got all your measurements written down, it s on to the next step. To determine your face shape, simply take a look at the list below and pick the one that best describes yours. This is where the length of your face is larger than the width between your cheekbones, while your forehead is bigger than your jawline. You ll also have a rounder jaw, rather than a sharp one, if you possess this shape. This is when all the measurements are similar to each other, with a sharp jaw. This is where the length of your face has a higher measurement than the others, while the rest are similar to each other. UltraFX10.com 7
The length of your face and your cheekbones are similar in regards to measurement, but are bigger than your jawline and forehead, which are also similar in measurement to each other. Your jaw has a softer angle and isn t really defined. The length of your face is the greatest, followed by your cheekbones, your forehead, then with your jawline having the smallest measurement. Your chin will be pointed. If this is your face shape, your forehead is greater than your jawline and cheekbones, with a pointed chin. For this, your jawline is greater than your cheekbones, which in itself is greater than your forehead. UltraFX10.com 8
Once you know which shape is yours, it s time to look at the cuts. THE RIGHT CUT FOR YOUR FACE If you re a guy and you have this face shape, you re in luck. This is often seen as ideal by women, as it is known as the most alpha face shape. It is also a shape that lends itself well to almost any hairstyle. However, there are still a few things that you need to keep in mind. One of them is to make sure your hair is worn off your forehead. Also, avoid a fringe that covers your forehead, and you might want to shave, since a beard isn t really needed to fill out the face here. You can t go wrong with the classic short cut, with shorter sides and slightly more length up top. A side-swept parting goes well with this. UltraFX10.com 9
Now this is what most think of as the most masculine of the face shapes square jawed, chiseled and even. And, much similar to the oval, it lends itself nicely to quite a few hairstyles, including both really short and really long. Although, if you go too short you risk looking like you re in the army (which isn t necessarily a bad thing). Classic haircuts work best if you have this kind of face shape, such as short layers or side partings. Feel free to have some stubble as well, as it adds to the masculine aesthetic, and gives texture to the face. This is the longest shape you could have, and requires a style that doesn t extend its length any further. This means that you don t want to take too much off the sides if you like to keep it longer on top. With this shape, it s all about keeping both the sides and top proportional to each other. Try having your hair fall across your forehead or across your sides as well. This stops your face from looking too narrow. Also, keep in mind that this face does not lend itself well to a full beard, so keep it short or have some stubble. UltraFX10.com 10
This shape has a round chin and no sharp angles at least none that are immediately apparent. To offset this, you need to go for a square type of haircut. The idea is to make it appear as if there are angles, even if there aren t. This means going with height up top, with tight sides like the pompadour. Basically, you want square corners in the area that s prone to recede. A square, full-bodied beard is also a good idea, as it adds sharp angles to your chin and jawline. If you have this face shape with the narrow brow and chin, and wider cheeks you re in possession of one that is actually quite rare, which means you re going to have to be extra careful when choosing a hairstyle. You need to add width to your chin and forehead with this shape, so you ll probably want to have a fringe for the forehead, and grow your hair longer so that you can tuck it behind your ears. Keep in mind that you don t want to overly shorten the sides your ears will just appear larger. You want soft layers for your hairstyle. It ll help soften the rather sharp angles of your face. Add a deep side-part, or do a sweep to the side, and some stubble to complete the look. UltraFX10.com 11
Another rare face shape, the heart means that your temples are wide, along with your hairline, and it gradually narrows, eventually ending at a pointed chin. For this shape, you ll need to be creative with your styles. You ll need to avoid tights cuts altogether, unless you want your chin to look much narrower. Mid-length sweeps are best, but you can also go for longer. Basically, either of these two, as long as they re fine and lightweight, so as to soften the forehead. A beard is great with this shape, as it adds bulk to your chin and jaw. Since this is pretty much the opposite of the heart shape, you need to make sure the hairstyle is opposite as well. You need volume here, longer, nose-length and fuller sides. It s also probably best to remain clean-shaven with this shape, as you don t want to add any more volume to your already prominent jawline.

Longer and not as wide as the oval, with a narrow chin. If you have this shape, your forehead is greater than your cheekbones and jawline, while your chin is pointed. The length of your face is the greatest, while cheekbones, forehead, and jawline go in descending order, with jawline having the smallest measurement. Your chin will be pointed.

The Right Cut for Your Face If you have an oval-shaped face, you re in luck. This shape works with almost any cut, which means you have a lot of choice. Our advice would be to go extreme though either long locks or short curls. But really, ladies with oval faces can pull off just about any kind of style, so feel free to experiment. If you have a round face, you need to avoid the bob cut, or any cut that has a uniform length. You need to have layers to give yourself some definition, depth and structure. You can also do this with some color. The point is that you don t want too much uniformity if you don t have a strong jawline. You need the definition from the cut to add frame to your face, and elongate it. You can try long hair with soft textured parts as well. UltraFX10.com 17
The first thing to keep in mind if you have a square-shaped face is to avoid anything that ends at your jawline. Essentially, you need to soften the square. This can be done with a curtain-style fringe, shorter in the center, and have it get longer towards either end. Have longer hair to soften the jawline, with texture. If this is your face shape, you need a style that adds volume and something interesting to your jawline. It s all about framing here, with layers specifically. Use them to emphasize what you want to accentuate, be it your face, neck or collarbone. UltraFX10.com 18
If you have a heart shape, you need to get a cut that makes the forehead width smaller, while increasing the width of your lower face. Try going for a nice, long fringe that can be swept to the side to show off the forehead. Layers around the cheekbones are a good way to lengthen your face as well. One final tip is to keep the length of your hair above your shoulders. This helps give more width to the jaw. Those of you ladies that have an angular, diamond-shaped face need to try out a bob cut, or even a straight-across. Keep your proportions in mind though, especially when you re layering. In terms of length, chin or shoulder is fine, and you can have wispy edges as well. Basically, you need any cut that reduces the width of the cheekbones, and length of the face. UltraFX10.com 19
