HEART SHAPED HAIRSTYLES

If you have a heart shaped face, you will want to add length to your locks as a means of making your narrow chin appear a bit wider. Textured cuts are usually the best, as they will add overall volume to your hair. If you have a heart-shaped face, you should generally try to avoid short hairstyles. Additionally, you will want to avoid slicking back your hair, as this can emphasize the upper portion of your face. You don’t want to create a triangular shape with your haircut, as this will make your facial structure appear rounder, rather than elongated.

Generally, the safest hairstyle for an individual with a rounded facial structure includes ones which fall at shoulder length. You can add some layers to your cut, which will help add a little style and body to your overall look. Feel free to add a little height to your hairstyle, but only do so if your hair is long enough to hit your shoulders.

If you really have your heart set on a short hairstyle, there are some options which are better than others when accommodating a heart-shaped face. If you create height at the top of your short hairstyle, you will then balance out your narrowed chin. If your hair is spiked upward, and you don’t have running across your forehead, you will create the illusion of “more face.” Therefore, you will successfully elongate your heart shaped face. You will absolutely want to avoid hairstyles which have bangs and hair flowing downward towards your ears and across your forehead. This will make your face appear wider than it already is.
