Oblong
Oblong: an elegant, mature face
Your face is clearly longer than it is wide, with a similar width at the forehead, cheekbones and jaw. It reads smart and grown-up — bangs and side volume add width and balance.
Hair · long & medium
- Medium layers with bangs
- Waves that add volume beside the cheeks
- Collarbone-length curls
Hair · short
- A full bob with volume at the cheeks
- For short men's cuts, a forward fringe; keep the sides from getting too short
- Wispy see-through bangs that just touch the brows
Glasses
- Oversized or deep Wayfarer-style frames break up the length
Go easy on
- Height on top or a slicked-back look
- Long, straight hair with no bangs
