Easy steps in discovering the best hairstyle for you:

Identify your faces shape...

Step 1: Locate The Widest Part Of Your Face

  • Forehead: If your face is the widest at your forehead and slowly gets more angled in your chin area, you probably have a heart-shaped face.

  • Cheekbones: If your cheekbones are the widest part of your face, you probably have a diamond shape face.

  • Jaw: If your jaw area is the widest point of your face, you probably have a triangular or pear shape face.

  • Equal: If your forehead, cheekbones, and jaw are all equal, then the chances are that your face shape could be either oval, square or round.

Step 2: The Shape Of Your Jaw

  • Pointy: A heart-shaped face is when your chin is angled and you can clearly see your jaws meeting at a particular point.

  • Square: A strong wide jaw, is a square-shaped face. Sometimes, when the jaw doesn’t appear to be that strong, you could also be a diamond or triangle face shape.

  • Round: A rounded jaw, is probably an oval or a round face shape. An Oval face shape the forehead and chin are approximately the same width. An oblong has the same characteristics at the forehead and chin but is longer and thinner.

Step 3: The Length Of Your Face

  • Short: A simple way to determine the length of your face is to draw an imaginary line horizontally below the eyes and vertically from the top of your head through the nose and towards the chin. If the horizontal to vertical ratio is one to one, then you have a round face.

  • Average: Average faces are usually longer than they are wide, so if the horizontal to vertical ratio is one to one and a half, that’s the average shape. This is also what the majority of people have.

  • Long: If you have a longer than average lower half, then it’s most likely that you have a long face. This means that the horizontal to vertical proportion is one to more than one and a half. You may fall into the oblong category.

Step 5: Ask yourself the following questions:


How much time do you like to spend fixing your hair? If you are very busy with children, like to sleep later in the morning before you go to work then a high maintenance hairstyle may not be for you.


Does your hair get in your way during daily activities such as work, tending to the children, working out etc? If this is the case you need to ask yourself do I mind putting my hair up; is it long enough to put up; or short enough I don't have to worry about my hair getting in my way. These are very important questions when determining the best hairstyle. We all want to look professional looking plus fit our diverse lifestyle without having to fuss a lot with our hair.
