Haircuts for owners of a rectangular face (42 photos)
Many of the fair sex have a rectangular face. But we can round it slightly, smoothing out sharp corners, for this we will choose a suitable haircut.
Rectangular and square face shapes are very similar, large cheekbones, an even chin, but in our version, the length exceeds the width.
When choosing a haircut, our task is to round the corners and balance the length with the width.
Let's decide what can help us with this:
- A bang is a reliable assistant, it can perfectly mask a large forehead, round up the face. Eyebrow length, neither thick nor short, ideally torn.
- Another helper - layering, will help balance the width with the length of the face.
- A ladder is a good option for a rectangular face. The use of graduation in haircuts will come in handy.
- Another assistant will be the length to the middle of the neck. The hair below the chin will help round off the angularity of the cheekbones.
Short hair
Haircuts that fully reveal the face, such as a pixie garcon, do not fit a rectangular face because they emphasize flaws. It is worth giving up hairstyles with clear symmetrical shapes, such as a short bob with straight bangs.
Since a short haircut is undesirable for a rectangular face, it is better to do a collected hairstyle and release strands from it than to cut your hair. But there are lovers of minimal hairstyles, we will give you some tips:
- If you decide on a short haircut, you need to add an oblique torn bang to one side with elongated curls, they will slightly narrow the width of the forehead. Do not make thick and even bangs - you will look like a mushroom.
- In a haircut for a boy, there should be light and airy strands, they will slightly remove attention from the sharp lines of the face.
- And do not try to create volume on the top of the head, the face will be even longer. Volume on the sides could have saved the day, but it won't work on short hair.
- You should not give preference to an ultra-short haircut, it will completely open up your face, while highlighting all your shortcomings.
Medium hair
A medium haircut is optimal for all face types, but for a rectangular one this length is ideal. Many haircuts have the opportunity to decorate your face, such as an elongated bob, a classic bob. An asymmetrical haircut will give you grace, bangs will slightly shorten the face, and the front elongated hair will visually narrow the chin area. If you are doing a collected hairstyle, leave a couple of curls on the sides, this will soften your facial features and give you a certain romance. Bangs are very necessary for such hairstyles.
Long hair
Although long hair is not considered the best choice for a rectangular face, it is not a losing one either. For long hair, multi-level haircuts are recommended, with a maximum volume in the middle of the neck. Instead of straight hair and straight bangs, give your hair waves for a softer look. A bang with lengthening will look good if you put it on two sides.
Choose a volume and a cascade in haircuts, a graduated ladder will be indispensable, shifting attention from the cheekbones, thereby softening the image. Soft waves will beautify your face. A milled crown, making a hairstyle with a light volume, will distract attention from the face.
