With so many great hairstyles to choose from, it can be difficult to determine the best style for your face. When choosing a hairstyle, you can take into account the shape of your face or other distinct features of your face to determine how best to wear your hair. The same is true if you are looking for the perfect hairstyle for a special occasion. Either way, if you take the time to figure out what suits you best, it can be a lot of fun to choose and try out a new hairstyle!

Method 1 of 3: Choose a hairstyle that matches the shape of your face

1. If you are a woman with a round face, opt for layers, an asymmetrical haircut, or a shapely short haircut. Women with a round face should wear their hair a little longer and in layers, or try to wear their short hair in a more daring way. If your hair falls over your shoulders or is cut into a bobline, you will need to layer it in rich layers to better define your face.
   • If you have shorter hair, try an asymmetrical bob or a nice short haircut. These two hairstyles both add some angles and give soft facial features a bit more shape.
2. If you are a man with a round face, wear your hair a little longer on top, cutting or even shaving it very short at the back and sides. That way you can make your facial features look sharper. Complete the look with a side part or slightly messy edges on the slightly longer top.
   • If you like to grow a beard, remember that a thin, well-groomed beard near your Adam's apple looks good on a round face.
3. If you're a woman with a heart-shaped face, try blunt bangs or a center part. A heart-shaped face is wider at the top around the cheekbones and tapers towards the chin in the shape of a point. Bangs cut straight across your forehead look good on a heart-shaped face by framing the wider part of your face.
   • If you have a heart-shaped face but don't like bangs, try a center part to make your face stand out. A side part usually makes your face appear longer, which is an excellent idea for round faces, but unnecessary for someone with a heart-shaped face.
   • Most lengths and types suit this face shape.
4. If you're a woman with a square face, get lots of layers and waves, or ask your hairdresser for a so-called "diamond dry cut". Women with square faces have a wider jawline and more angular facial features than women with other face shapes. Softer hairstyles look better than angular or square styles.
   • Long hair looks great with a square face, especially if you cut the ends in layers or curl them in a wavy way.
   • A so-called diamond hairstyle is longer at the back and shorter at the front, and looks best on someone with slightly wavy hair and a square face.
   • If you wear bangs, wear them sideways instead of in a straight line for a softer look.
5. If you are a man with a square face, wear your sideburns short and style your hair in an upward direction. Square-faced men can lengthen their face by wearing their hair in an upward style, such as in the shape of a so-called pompadour. Another way to make your face look a little longer is by holding your sideburns above your ears.
   • If you like to keep your beard on, keep in mind that a longer beard will look good on a square face as well.
   • If you prefer longer hair, a bun can also be a good option. A bun will make the sides look cropped, and the bun can be as high and as long as you like.
6. With a triangular face, provide volume at the top; this applies to both men and women. Men with a triangular face have narrower temples and cheekbones and wider jaw lines. By keeping your hair longer and adding texture on top, you can make your face look more proportioned.
   • If your hair has some curls, let it grow on top and wear it in a casual pompadour.
   • If you like to wear facial hair, a well-groomed goatee, or a thicker beard, can hide the corners of your jawline.
   • For women with a triangular face, a layered bobline with bangs can look good. Bangs help make your forehead look a bit wider.
7. If your face is oval, try out different hairstyles. Oval-shaped faces are known for having the best proportions and can in principle be combined with any hairstyle. Browse through hair magazines and view photos on the Internet to find a style you like and show it to the hairdresser when it's time to cut your hair.

Method 2 of 3: Replenish your facial features

1. Flatter a large forehead with bangs. If you have a large forehead and want to try to hide it a bit, it is best to go for bangs. If your face is heart or oval, choose thick straight bangs.
   • A round or square face works best with side bangs.
2. Draw attention away from your nose with a side part. If for whatever reason you are not proud of your nose, you can draw attention to your eyes with the help of a deep side part. A side part also makes your face appear longer and draws attention to your forehead and chin instead of the center of your face.
3. If you have narrow features, wear a nice short haircut. If you have small eyes, a small nose and / or a small mouth, be careful not to let them drown in long, layered strands of hair. If your facial features are on the small side, consider cutting your hair short. A pixie haircut and a bobline up to your chin draw attention to your facial features and make them appear more in proportion to your face.
   • Men with a narrow face should cut their hair short and should try to avoid too much facial hair, otherwise their facial features will soon be dominated by the hair.
4. Hide a long neck with long strands of hair. If your neck is on the long side and you would like to hide it a bit, just let your hair grow long. Wear it straight or in waves to divert attention from your long neck.
   • If you currently have short hair, it may take a few months before it is longer. To add some extra length while growing your hair, use extensions that you can pin into your hair. You might even consider trying out different styles with the help of wigs.

Method 3 of 3: Choosing a style for a special occasion

1. Wear your hair up in a loose, wavy way in combination with a lace dress. Lace dresses are the most romantic and call for a matching romantic hairstyle. Think about updating your hair with loose waves and tucking in some flowers or hair clips to finish it off. If you have naturally straight hair, curl it a bit using curlers or a curling iron so that it waves nicely before updating. Then turn it onto your back a few times.
   • Secure your hair with a bobby pin and some pretty hair clips to complete the look.
2. Try it on a halter dress with a high, casual fishtail braid. A halter dress pairs beautifully with a hairstyle that complements the long, sleek look of the dress. Give your hair some more volume and tie it into a high ponytail. Make a loose fish pie braid and secure it with a rubber band.
   • If your hair is not long enough for such a hairstyle, use so-called hair extensions that you can pin into your hair and then put your hair up.
3. Combine a so-called mermaid dress with sideways wavy hair. Mermaid dresses are particularly elegant; pair yours with an equally elegant hairstyle to complete your look. Create loose waves by braiding your hair into one large, loose braid and sleeping with it at night. The next morning, put some styling serum in your hair and comb it all to one side.
   • To complete this elegant style, spray some hairspray over the waves to keep them in shape.
4. Try a ballerina bun paired with a shoulder dress. A shoulder dress gives you a bold and dramatic look. Hence, make sure your dress gets the attention it deserves by putting your hair up and keeping it out of the way. Simply create a high ponytail and wrap the tail around the center to the ends. Secure the bun all around with bobby pins.
   • If you'd like this look but don't have that long or very thin hair, try using hair extensions, or create a bun with a sock.
   • For a smoother and more modern look, work some gel or mousse into your hair to prevent frizz and to style any unruly strands. Then pull your hair back into the ponytail and continue with the bun.
5. Create a vintage look by curling and pinning short hair to one side. If you have a bobline down to your chin or shoulders, create a 1920s style by curling your hair using large curlers or a curling iron and holding the curls in place with hairspray. Comb all the curls to one side and secure with hair clips.
6. Brighten up your hairstyle, however short or long, with flowers or hair clips with glitter and rhinestones. You can brighten up any hair length with one or more hair clips. Put up longer hair and put fun hair clips through it here and there, or curl or twist shorter hair and then decorate it with small clips.
   • For the best look, choose hair clips that match your dress or your jewelry.
7. Comb your hair back or create a pompadour for a classic look. Men can easily make their hairstyle more festive by combing it back with pomade aka wax.For a beautiful pompadour, comb the sides of your damp hair back smoothly with pomade. Take a round brush and roll the brush back from the back of your head and use a hair dryer to blow your hair up and forward at the same time.
   • Brush your hair all over your forehead with the round brush, until the top of your hair is nice and high and convex. Add some more wax and use some strong hairspray to keep your style in place.
   • For an even better result, use a blower that you can put on your hair dryer. This makes it easier to direct the hot air to specific parts of your hair.
