It's sad but true - not every woman can pull off her dream hairstyle. Sure, we all spent days in the 1990's wishing we had Jennifer Aniston's bone structure so we could perfectly pull off the "Rachel," but that doesn't mean that you can't find a look that's all your own. So how can you customize a haircut to your face shape? The answer is simpler than you might think. You'll first need to grab the opinion of a friend or two to weigh in on your particular face shape. Pull back your hair and sweep away any bangs with a bobby pin.
Determine if you have an oval face - a long face that is broad at the temples and slightly narrower at the chin, a round face - a circular chin with full cheeks, centrally-positioned ears, and a horizontally symmetrical structure, a square face - a shorter, symmetrical face with a square jaw line, a heart-shaped face - a wider forehead with a narrow chin, or a diamond-shaped face - a narrow forehead and a narrow chin. Oval face shapes have the most versatility - they can easily pull off nearly any cut, from a bob with bangs to layered length with a face frame. For rounder faces, go for length and body.
A longer cut can help to elongate your face, and layers can add volume to your hair and draw attention from the roundness of your structure. Avoid a central part and add some fullness around your crown. For square-faced women, go for softer, fuller looks at short and medium lengths as well as side-swept bangs to create soft asymmetry. If you have a heart or diamond-shaped face, go for something between chin and shoulder-length.
