Find the Perfect Hairstyle for Your Face Shape

Your hairstyle is a powerful expression of your personal style. But choosing a haircut that suits your face shape is just as important as the style you love. At Combined Salon Supplies [CSS], we believe that haircuts tailored to your facial structure bring out your best features and boost confidence. So before picking up the scissors or booking that appointment, ask yourself: Which hairstyle suits your face shape?

In this guide, you’ll learn how to identify your face shape—whether it's round, square, oval, triangular, or long—and discover the ideal haircuts for each. Plus, we’ve included styling product suggestions from our professional salon supplies collection to help you create salon-quality looks at home.

Best Hairstyles for Round Faces

If you have soft, curved lines and a face that appears wide, you likely have a round face. The best hairstyles for round face shapes include:

• Layered cuts to add angles and slim the face

• Side parts instead of center parts

• Voluminous, short hairstyles

• Long hairstyles with subtle waves

✨ VASSO Hair Styling Wax for Men and Women – Ideal for shaping layered styles and adding dimension.

Avoid slicked-back styles or straight cuts that emphasize width. Instead, create volume at the crown and let the hair frame the face to create length.

Best Hairstyles for Square Faces

Square face shapes are defined by strong jawlines and broad foreheads. To soften these angles:

• Choose medium-length layered cuts

• Use side parts and wispy bangs

• Try waves or curls that start below the jawline

• Avoid blunt cuts that highlight the jaw

💡 Product Pick: L'Oréal Tecni Art Volume Lift Mousse – Adds root volume and a light hold without weighing hair down.

Also consider curly styles and textured cuts. Not naturally curly? Use mousse or foam for styling support.

Hairstyles for Triangular Faces

Triangular face shapes are narrower at the chin and wider at the forehead. The goal is to balance proportions:

• Go for chin-length cuts with volume at the ends

• Use waves or curls to add width to the lower face

• Avoid sleek, straight styles or sharp bangs

💇♀️ Style Tip: Bangs and side-swept layers can help draw attention upward and soften the jawline.

Hairstyles for Oval Faces

If you have an oval face, consider yourself lucky—most hairstyles work beautifully for this shape. Ideal looks include:

• Middle-parted wavy styles

• Blunt bobs or shoulder-length cuts

• Bangs to add style without disrupting proportion

Oval faces can also rock layered styles and curls. The key is to avoid hiding your naturally balanced features.

Hairstyles for Long Faces

Long faces are characterized by more vertical space, often with a prominent forehead. To add width:

• Use volumized waves and curls

• Add bangs or fringe to shorten the appearance of the forehead

• Avoid straight, sleek styles or ultra-long hair

🔥 Featured Product: L'Oréal Steampod 3.0 Professional Styler – Create waves, curls, and volume with minimal heat damage.

Chin-length cuts and layered styles help to balance your look and reduce facial length.
