The Right Hair Extensions for Different Face Shapes
Hair extensions are a fabulous way to fill out your existing hair and are ideal for trying out new styles and looks without the commitment of a cut or color. If you’ve shopped for extensions, you’re probably aware of the multitude of options, making it difficult to decide the best fit for you. This guide will tell you everything you need to know:
Understanding Face Shape
If you’ve never thought about your face shape, that’s a good place to start. As there are several face shapes, each with unique strengths, assessing your type will help you pick the best hair extension for your looks.
- Round – equal width and length, with soft, rounded edges. The cheekbones are the widest part of your face and your jaw is rounded.
- Oval – longer than wide, but features have balanced proportions and soft edges.
- Square – strong features, including jaw, cheekbones, and forehead. Your face is full of angular lines and an equal width-to-height ratio.
- Heart – tapers from the top to the chin, resembling a heart or upside-down triangle.
- Diamond – narrow jaw and forehead with wide cheekbones and a pointed chin.
Choosing Hair Extensions for Your Face Shape
Once you have determined your face shape, choose your hair extensions accordingly. Use the following information to guide your choice:
- Round – add height and volume to your crown by layering extensions to create more length. Asymmetrical styles work well, but stay away from extensions that add width as this creates an unnaturally over-round appearance.
- Oval – with an oval face, you can wear any kind of extensions your heart desires. Try different lengths and textures to find out which styles you love best.
- Square – soften the angular look with extensions that add texture near your face. Layers, waves, curls, and side-swept bangs are all great options.
- Heart – use extensions that create volume around the jaw and chin. Layers and curls work very well. Consider bangs to minimize the appearance of a larger forehead.
- Diamond – create volume at the top and bottom of the face to balance the width. Layers and bangs are two fantastic choices.
Choosing hair extensions shouldn’t be a spur-of-the-moment decision. Take some time to evaluate your options and consider how extensions may look with your face shape. If you need more help, contact us at ABC Wigs and we’ll assist you in finding that perfect look.
