Advice

When choosing a haircut for a square face, you should adhere to a few simple rules to make it easier for yourself.

Your enemies:

Say NO to straight and cropped bangs! Straight lines will only add to the angular emphasis, but you need to get rid of it.
When choosing hair lengths, avoid haircuts that are too short and chin-length. The length of the hair can be above or below the chin, but in no case, not on the same level with it.
Do not concentrate the volume in the area of the cheekbones and chin, so you will only emphasize the angularity of the face.
If you want to curl your hair, remember that the curls should not be curled from the face.

Your friends:

Asymmetry! Asymmetry is your best friend, remember this and use it.
If you want to make a bang, do not be stopped by the myths that it does not fit a square face, this is not at all the case, you just need to correctly approach its design. Bangs for a square face should be elongated and beveled.
Choose voluminous haircuts and you won't go wrong. Try not to lick your hair, it will be much better if you give your hair a little chaos.
Smooth lines. Try to avoid rough, even cuts, smooth transitions smooth out the corners. Multi-layered haircuts will help you with this, since the choice of them now is large enough, for any hair length.
If you want to make a short haircut, then it should be a haircut with volume in the back of the head and lengthening to the face. Slanting bangs will not hurt here either.

Bean

This haircut is suitable for a square face both in the classic short version, focusing on the middle of the face and thus smoothing the cheekbones, and in the elongated version. However, you should not make a chin-length bob, as we already wrote above, this length should be avoided. Bob can be attributed to both short haircuts for a square face and haircuts for medium length hair. In the second version, the curls can be slightly curled so that the strands romantically frame the face.

Cascade

The cascade is ideal for both long and medium hair. Cuts should be smooth and start from the cheekbones, remember that the hair should frame the face, so it is better not to tie it in a ponytail or at least leave a few strands falling off. As for the bangs, straight bangs with a parting or laid on the side, oblique bangs and arched bangs are suitable for the cascade. The ends of the bangs are best profiled or torn to avoid even cuts.

Square

No matter how fashionable this haircut is, but if you have a square face, you better refuse its classic performance. But an asymmetrical square with milled ends will suit you perfectly. You can twist the ends and complement the haircut with an oblique ragged bang.

Garson

Garson is one of the most successful short haircuts for a square face. The volume of the haircut is concentrated on top of the front of the head, which visually stretches it. The bangs will help soften the facial features, which is what is required from a haircut.

Ladder

A ladder is a great option for long hair, especially if you have straight hair. Curly hair itself frames the face, but a regular straight cut with straight hair will not look very good on a square face. If you make the ladder so that its first cuts are at the level of the cheekbones (not the chin!), It will perfectly emphasize your appearance.
