Choosing a haircut for an oval face

The hairstyle is the most important step in creating an individual look. Her choice depends entirely on the shape and features of the face, as well as the structure of the hair. Hair color plays an important role, because dark tones visually reduce the shape of the face, while light tones can emphasize its ideal features. Let's take a closer look at how to choose the right haircut for an oval face.

The life of a woman who chooses a haircut unsuccessfully changes for the worse. The reason for an inappropriate haircut or hairstyle is not always due to the unprofessional approach of a specialist. Haircut, like makeup, must fully correspond to the physiology of a woman. Before choosing a particular hairstyle, you need to determine what type of face you have, so that in the future there will be no disappointments.

Oval face shape (oval face type) is listed as a universal face. Almost any hairstyle is suitable for this shape without any restrictions, but this statement is true for those who have an ideal oval face. There are small errors (large forehead, long nose) that will need to be corrected.

The oval face is somewhat similar to an inverted egg: narrowing and lengthening occurs in the lower part. Facial features are neither large nor small, but mostly medium. A huge number of styles and hairstyles fit this shape, perfectly highlighting the attractive features of the face.

When choosing the length of a woman's haircut, attention should be paid to the neck. If it suits you, then you can choose any length of hair. Otherwise, experts advise avoiding short haircuts and haircuts above the chin level, because such hairstyles not only open, but also emphasize the lower face and neck.

If the owner of an oval face does not want to spend time and effort on styling, you can choose a haircut with short hair. This hair length can save you a lot of money. Haircuts for short hair that do not require styling are presented in a large assortment.

Such haircuts are not suitable for a rounded face, because they visually make it heavier. Short hair is considered ideal for women with an oval face. Men's haircuts are also in demand, they are able to give the whole image youth.

If you want to look more distinctive, you can pay attention to the haircut. pixie... Its secret lies in a slightly sloppy look. A haircut does not require perfect neatness, as it will look better when tousled. This variation can divert attention away from irregular facial features.

"Sessun" - an attractive and unusual haircut that looks like a hat. This hairstyle does not require daily styling and maintenance, which is important in the modern world.

When choosing a short haircut, it must be borne in mind that such a hairstyle is suitable for those women who are naturally endowed with an ideal body shape. After all, this size of hair focuses on the parameters of the body.

Not everyone can take a chance and create short curls. There is a large assortment for medium lengths. The most versatile and popular is the "cascade" haircut. The advantages of a hairstyle completely depend on the specialist: it is possible to create volume at the roots or along the entire length of the hairstyle.

You can also experiment with bangs, which will favorably emphasize the beautiful shape of the eyes and eyebrows.

An excellent option would be a "ladder" haircut. It is often confused with a "cascade", although these haircuts have a lot of differences. There is no need to lay the "ladder", but you need to observe the position of the strands so that they do not spoil the whole image.

The bob haircut looks seductive. This haircut can be either with or without lengthening. The first version is ideal for an oval face, as it lends correctness to the entire look.

"Kare" is great for an evening out, because for this it is enough just to comb the hair well. But such a haircut requires constant monitoring of the length of the strands; when they grow back, you must immediately seek help from specialists.

Models of haircuts with long hair are in great demand. After all, long curls can be worn in any haircuts and hairstyles. The only advice: if you like loose hair (shoulder length or lower) with curls near your face, then you should do a bang, because without it, the face will seem more elongated and narrower than it really is. Bangs of various sizes and shapes look great with long hair.

But when choosing a bang option, you should take into account the structure of the hair, as well as their ability to create curls. The more they curl, the longer the bangs should be.

The oval face shape is considered correct, because it allows you to use and create any type of hairstyle. But you need to pay attention to important points:

• For owners of thin hair, it is better to give their preference to haircuts with medium hair length. Also, an excellent solution would be to use a haircut with short hair.

• Girls with straight strands always dream of curly hair. But those who naturally inherited such a hair structure say that it is difficult to care for them. It will be even more difficult to decide on a haircut. To give such curls the correct shape, you must use specialized care products. If the curls are small, then you need to trim asymmetrically. And for larger curls, a ladder haircut is suitable.

With age, many women begin to think more about which hairstyle to choose so that it effectively emphasizes all the outlines of the face. The masters say that it is worth deciding on the choice of hairstyle not only by the shape of the face, but also by age.

After all, at 20 years old, you can use almost all haircuts. Short curls can both visually add several years, and vice versa - significantly rejuvenate a woman. Young girls are better off choosing sophisticated and natural hairstyles that are perfect for everyday life.

At the age of 20-30, hair begins to grow faster, and it also becomes stronger. Experts advise choosing haircuts with medium curls. If you like to wear long curls, then a ponytail is considered an ideal and fashionable variation, which will give the whole image elegance and youth.

Women over 35 should choose anti-aging haircuts. These haircuts include:

• "bob" with curled curls;
• short youthful haircuts;
• elongated "bob-bob" with voluminous curls at the roots;
• long oblique bangs with medium hair.

For women after 40, haircuts are suitable: "cascade", "pixie", "bob", fluffy haircuts with a hat, "square" with lengthening. A huge number of women aged 40-45 refuse hairstyles with long curls. This option often does not look very attractive, and caring for elongated hair takes a lot of time and effort.
