Understanding Different Face Shapes
Knowing your face shape is the first step to finding the most flattering hairstyles, glasses, and makeup techniques. Explore our comprehensive guide to different face shapes and discover personalized recommendations.
Oval
The oval face shape is considered one of the most versatile and balanced. Its softly rounded jawline and slightly wider forehead create an elegant symmetry, offering a harmonious appearance that complements many styles and looks effortlessly.
Key Features:
- Face length is about 1.5 times the width
- Forehead is slightly wider than the jawline
- Cheekbones are the widest part of the face
- Jawline has a gentle curve without sharp angles
- Balanced proportions between all facial features
Styling Tips:
Most hairstyles and accessories work well with oval faces. You can experiment with various looks from short pixie cuts to long layers, bangs, and center or side parts. For glasses, try rectangular, aviator, or wayfarer frames.
Round
The round face shape is youthful and charming, defined by soft curves and full cheeks. With equal width and length, it creates a balanced, symmetrical look. This harmonious shape conveys warmth, approachability, and a friendly appeal.
Key Features:
- Face width and length are roughly equal
- Fuller cheeks with soft curves
- Rounded jawline without definition
- Forehead width similar to jawline width
- Lacks sharp angles or defined corners
Styling Tips:
Look for styles that add definition and create the illusion of length. Long layers, side-swept bangs, and cuts that add volume at the crown work well. For glasses, try angular frames like rectangular or square shapes to add definition.
Square
The square face shape is defined by its strong angles and structured features, radiating confidence and strength. With a jawline that is as prominent as the forehead, this face shape exudes a bold and striking presence, embodying both power and symmetry.
Key Features:
- Strong, angular jawline
- Forehead and jawline of similar width
- Straight sides with minimal tapering
- Defined chin that may appear square
- Sharp angles rather than curves
Styling Tips:
Styles that soften your angular features work best. Try side-swept bangs, layers, wispy ends, or cuts with rounded edges. For glasses, round or oval frames help balance your angular features and create contrast.
Heart
The heart-shaped face is defined by a wider forehead and a narrow, pointed chin. This shape creates a striking, feminine silhouette, with prominent cheekbones that give a naturally youthful and attractive appearance. Perfect for diverse styling options and known for its captivating appeal.
Key Features:
- Wider forehead and temple area
- Narrowing at the jawline
- Pointed or narrow chin
- High, defined cheekbones
- May have a widow's peak at the hairline
Styling Tips:
Balance your wider forehead with styles that add width at the jawline. Side-swept bangs, chin-length bobs, or layers that frame the face work well. For glasses, frames that are wider at the bottom or rimless styles are ideal.
Diamond
The diamond face shape features dramatic, high cheekbones with a narrow forehead and jawline, creating an elegant and distinctive appearance. This rare and coveted face shape has natural angular definition that catches the light beautifully, creating sculpted shadows and highlights.
Key Features:
- Narrow forehead and jawline
- Widest point is at the cheekbones
- Angular features with defined structure
- Pointed chin similar to heart shape
- Dramatic facial angles and proportions
Styling Tips:
Hairstyles with volume at the forehead and jawline help balance your prominent cheekbones. Try chin-length cuts, side-swept bangs, or styles that add width at the temples. For glasses, try frames with detailing on top or cat-eye shapes.
Oblong
The oblong face shape is longer than it is wide, featuring an elongated silhouette. With a straight forehead, defined jawline, and minimal curves, this shape gives a sleek, refined appearance. Ideal for hairstyles that add width and balance, the oblong face has an elegant, sophisticated profile.
Key Features:
- Face length noticeably longer than width
- Forehead, cheeks, and jawline of similar width
- Straight cheekline with little curvature
- Often has a long, straight chin
- May have a high forehead
Styling Tips:
Styles that add width rather than height work best. Try bangs to shorten the face, layers at chin level, or cuts with volume on the sides. For glasses, wider frames with decorative temples add width. Avoid tall frames that elongate.

How to Determine Your Face Shape?
Knowing your face shape is the first step to finding the most flattering hairstyles, makeup techniques, and accessories. While our AI-powered tool offers instant analysis, understanding how to manually determine your face shape can be a valuable skill. Here are three reliable methods you can use at home:
Mirror Measurement
This traditional method involves measuring key facial proportions using a flexible measuring tape or ruler while looking in a mirror.
-
1
Pull your hair away from your face and secure it with a headband or clips.
-
2
Stand in front of a mirror with your face relaxed and looking straight ahead.
-
3
Measure the width of your forehead at its widest point (usually between the temples).
-
4
Measure the width of your cheekbones (from the outer corner of one eye to the outer corner of the other).
-
5
Measure your jawline from the tip of your chin to below your ear at the jawbone, then multiply by two.
-
6
Measure the length of your face from the center of your hairline to the tip of your chin.
Compare these measurements to determine your face shape. For example, if your face length is notably longer than your face width, you might have an oblong face shape. If all measurements are similar, you likely have a round or square face.
Tracing Method
This visual approach allows you to see the outline of your face shape clearly by tracing it directly on a mirror or photo.
-
1
Pull your hair back completely away from your face.
-
2
Take a front-facing photo of yourself with a neutral expression, or stand in front of a mirror.
-
3
If using a photo, print it out. If using a mirror, use a washable marker or lipstick.
-
4
Trace the outline of your face, following the jawline, cheekbones, and hairline.
-
5
Step back and look at the shape you've traced – compare it to common face shapes.
Look specifically at the jawline angles, forehead width, and face length-to-width ratio. Heart shapes have pointed chins, square shapes have angular jawlines, and oval shapes have gently curved outlines.
Digital Analysis
The most convenient and accurate method uses our AI Face Shape Detector tool to analyze your facial proportions instantly.
-
1
Take a clear, front-facing photo with neutral expression and good lighting.
-
2
Pull your hair away from your face to reveal your entire facial structure.
-
3
Upload your photo to our Face Shape Detector tool.
-
4
Within seconds, receive a detailed analysis of your face shape with percentage matches.
-
5
Get personalized recommendations for hairstyles, glasses, and more based on your face shape.
For the most accurate results, ensure your photo is taken in even lighting without shadows on your face. Look directly at the camera with a neutral expression, and ensure your full face from hairline to chin is visible.
