Oval
Oval: the balanced face that suits almost anything
Your forehead, cheekbones and jaw are similar in width, and your face is a little longer than it is wide — the most balanced shape. Show your features off rather than hiding them.
Hair · long & medium
- Long layers or a shag that frames your face
- Long straight hair with a center part
- Loose, big waves
Hair · short
- A chin-length bob
- Pixie cuts work easily
- For short men's cuts, anything from a textured fringe to a slick-back
Glasses
- Most frames work — pick one about as wide as your face
Go easy on
- Heavy bangs that cover your forehead and cheeks — they hide your proportions
