Large forehead
Term

Usually found on round or square faces.

Use a higher half bang to create length in the face that will give the face the illusion of being larger and will make the eyes appear more proportional.

The hair should be slightly darker at the sides than the top.

Definition

Wide-set Eyes

Term

Asymmetrical, off-center styles are best, as they attract the eye away from the nose.

An asymmetrical style will accentuate the fact that the face is not even.

Definition

 Crooked Nose

Term

-          Draw the hair away from the face.

-          Use a center part to help elongate and narrow the nose.

Definition

Wide, flat Nose

Term

-          Stay away from styles that are tapered close to the head on the sides, and have height on top.

-          Middle parts or too much hair directed toward the face are also poor choices. This will only accentuate any long, narrow features on the face.

-          Instead, select a style where the hair moves away from the face, creating the illusion of wider facial features.

Definition

Long, narrow Nose

Term

-          Often gives a child-like look.

-          It is best to design an age-appropriate hairstyle that would not be associated with children.

-          Hair should be swept off the face, creating a line from nose to ear.

-          The top hair should be moved off the forehead to give illusion of length to the nose.

Definition

Small Nose

Term

-          To draw attention away from the nose, bring hair forward at the forehead with softness around the face.

Definition

Prominent Nose

Term

-          Use straight lines at the jaw line.

-          Use curved lines at the jaw line.

Definition

Square Jaw

-          Hair should be full & fall below the jaw to direct attention away from it.

Definition

Long Jaw

Term

-          Hair should be directed forward in the chin area.

Definition

Receding Chin

Term
Move the hair up & away from the face along the chin line.
Definition

Small Chin

Term

The hair should be either longer or shorter than the chin line so as to avoid drawing attention to the chin.

Definition

Large Chin

Term

Usually found on long, narrow faces.

Direct hair back and away from the face at the temples.

A side movement from a diagonal back part with some height is advisable.

A slight lightening of the hair at the corner of the eyes will give the illusion of width.
