Light, wispy side-swept bangs will add some diagonal direction and draw attention to the eyes and the middle of the face and the lightness of the bangs will still allow part of your forehead to show through instead of blocking it out completely. Also, having some height to the bangs further opens up the forehead and draws attention away from a heavy jaw line. Side-swept bangs that allow most of your forehead to show through will keep attention on the top section of your face. The lower half of triangular faces is very heavy and will benefit from bangs that draw attention from the bottom half of the face and focus it on the middle or top half of the face for the most flattering look. This is because the look, style and length of bangs have the ability to shape your face - for better or for worse. This style kicks out at the bottom and sides and only draws further attention to the jaw region, while the heavy bangs, although to the side, still make the face look shorter and wider.īangs are perfect for adding versatility to your look and for giving your hair a makeover without sacrificing your length, but they can also make such an impact that they totally change the way you look. This shape will work in straight and curly textures.Īnother good example of the wrong hairstyle on the wrong face shape! Triangular faces are pear shape and are narrowest at the top forehead region and widest at the jaw line chin area. The middle part also helps to top divide the face into two long narrow portions to create the illusion of length. The soft waves have a naturally soft appearance that falls nicely due to the layering.
#HAIRSTYLES FOR FEMALE FACE SHAPES HOW TO#
This long soft wavy hairstyle is a nice look and a great example of how to design a hairstyle that will suit triangular face shapes. The heavy bangs make the face shape appear even shorter and wider which leads the eye to the sides and width once more! The hairstyle follows the actual shape of a triangular face shape instead of compensating and adjusting it. The sides only make the jaw area, which is already large naturally, look even wider and bigger. Too wide, too square! This hairstyle is the worst possible shape for triangular faces. The zig zag part creates some height and builds length into the look, while an all over rounded shape frames the face nicely. The sides fall softly onto and away from the jaw line creating cover in the right places, and the side swept bangs work well to create diagonal direction drawing attention to the eyes. This is a very nice hairstyle shape which suits triangular face shapes to a tee. The geometry is all wrong as our image shows very well. Worse still, due to the sides being layered in short, the jaw area actually appears larger and wider than it really is. This makes the overall shape of the face appear to be shorter and wider. For a start, the bangs are heavy forward falling and in the eyes. This short hairstyle is the perfect example of what doesn't suit triangular faces. The heavy top layers allow hair to be rounder and fuller above the ears, while no bangs make the face shape appear longer, bringing attention to the forehead and away from the jaw line.

This short layered hairstyle is perfect in how it puts hair exactly where it's needed to make a triangular face shape look balanced and proportional.
