Consider the shape of the face
To harmonious and natural hair, you must also take into account the shape of the face. The most common types are the following: oval, round, triangular, heart-shaped, square, and diamond-shaped types.
- Oval type suggests a smooth narrowing of the face from the forehead to the chin. The jaw line is already the forehead line, and the cheekbones are clearly pronounced. Owners of the oval face type are suitable for short haircuts. So that it does not seem round, you need to pull the hair back or comb your bangs to open your forehead. The following variations will suit the teenage boy: “British”, “Canadian”, boxing, halfboxing.
- At the young man with round face type wide cheekbones, narrow jaw, and the face is the same in length and width. Therefore, the hairstyle chosen by the young man should clearly draw the lines of the vertical and horizontal lines, thereby creating the illusion of angles. Bangs should be avoided for short haircuts, asymmetry must be created to create contrast. The choice should be the following hairstyles: "British", "Canadian", "Quiff" (variation of the iroquois).
- Triangular face differs from others in narrow chin, broad forehead and cheekbones. For this type of person is difficult to choose a suitable hairstyle. Teens should pay attention to short haircuts that emphasize the chin line. A great find is the hair that has been tucked to the side. Triangular faces will suit different options: elongated four of a kind, underkat, Canadian, Quiff, haircuts with a haircut left / right, haircuts with bangs. Classic square will further emphasize the triangle of the face, it should be avoided.
- Heart-shaped face type - a variation of the triangular, but his chin is sharper, and the cheekbones are softer and wider. It is better for young men to choose hairstyles that gently frame their face.
- With square type the teenager has a symmetrical face.The young man has a low forehead, a clear, pronounced jaw line, while the cheekbones are quite wide. He can safely experiment and choose extraordinary hairstyles. He will suit short haircuts and bangs: they will make the face more attractive.
Examples include hedgehog, “creative mess”, classic haircuts (boxing, halfboxing, beaver, bob), haircuts with bangs combed to the side. An undercard and a British woman will also help to complement the image.
- Owners diamond type have a broad line of cheekbones, narrow forehead and chin. The young men need to balance the proportions: make the chin and forehead visually wider. It is worth choosing stepped haircuts, do not shorten the hair on the sides. Hairstyles with long hair will look great: they will smooth sharp corners.
Any hairstyle can be revived if you turn on the imagination and add a little imagination. Habitual classic boxing and half-boxes are transformed into an original hairstyle, it is only the master to shave an intricate pattern on the temporal lobe. You can experiment with the parting: make it straight, oblique, zigzag. In Canada, you can make a bouffant, or you can let go of your hair and tie their tail. Strands can be made torn, and the bangs - oblique.
Hairstyle should reflect the inner world of man, and if you want change and radical change, then adolescence is the ideal time for experiments. It is not necessary to strictly prohibit the boy to choose this or that hairstyle, even if it does not go to him. The main thing that a teenager should learn is that any, even the most fashionable and stylish hairstyle will not decorate him if he does not take care of his hair - daily wash, carefully comb, if necessary, lay, in time to go to the hairdresser.
The culture of hair care must be instilled from childhood, so that in adolescence, a boy who becomes a man will not have problems.
