Fringe Hairstyles for Your Face Shape
Fringe Hairstyles for your Face Shape: Get a New Look with Fringe
and Face Shape”
Fringe hairstyles are a great way to get a fresh new look without changing your entire hairstyle. I’ve been writing so much about changing your hairstyle lately that I thought I should give ideas on how to subtly change your look with fringe. Not everyone wants a drastic new look, but if you want to tweak your current hairstyle just a bit, then a new fringe hairstyle is for you.
Fringe hair styles can range from a full fringe look or you can get a subtle look with fringe by adding in pieces that blend in with your layers like the look below. There are so many options with a fringe hairstyle, that you really can’t go wrong.
Fringe hairstyle with some flair
To find the right fringe hairstyle for you, your face shape needs to be taken into consideration. (if you aren’t sure about your face shape check on Barb’s great article on the getting the face shape thing right). Using face shapes to determine fringe hairstyles is the best way to find the most flattering fringe for you.
Fringe Hairstyles for a Round Face Shape
Fringe hairstyles for round face shapes should be angled with varying layers. Angled fringe best suits a round face shape. Find a fringe hairstyle with angled pieces which will offset the roundness of your face. Angled fringe with varying lengths in the layers within the fringe is a great hairstyle option because it will also counterbalance the roundness of your face.
Fringe hairstyles for a heart face shape
Heart Shaped Faces look best with a full fringe. If you have a heart shaped face you are wider through the forehead and narrower through the chin. A full fringe hairstyle that is shorter in the middle and longer towards the sides is perfect for heart shaped faces to balance the face shape.
Fringe hairstyles for a square face shape
Square face fringe should be side swept to soften a strong jaw line. Side swept fringe is perfect for softening the stronger, more dramatic, facial features found on those of you with square face shapes. Try a side swept fringe hairstyle with soft layers around your face to soften your look even more.
Fringe hairstyles for an oval face shape
Considered the ideal face shape, oval faces can wear any type of fringe. Oval faces are the most ideal face shape because you can pull off virtually any hairstyle. Lucky you! You can choose any type of fringe hair style that you like.
Keep your fringe hairstyle looking fresh by getting regular trims. Your fringe should be trimmed about every four weeks to keep your hairstyle looking its best. I offer complimentary fringe trims to my regular clients, as will many hairdressers who want to keep their regular customers looking good and coming back. So, if you decide to try a new fringe hairstyle, ask your hairdresser if you are able to ‘pop in’ to just have your fringe trimmed every few weeks . . . I’m sure they will welcome it!
