Types of Women's Haircuts

A picture of woman's layered haircut There are three basic types of haircuts for women, layered, one-length and a combination of the two. Our stylists at Salon Essential can help you choose the right look for you! Layered haircuts are a great way to add texture and shape to your hair. Whether you have a lot of curls or straight hair, layers can add body and volume. Another popular style is the one-length cut. This look is perfect if you want your hair to look natural and effortless. It can be cut to any length from chin to shoulder length and can be styled in many different ways. For a more dramatic look, a combination of both layered and one-length haircuts can be used. This look is great for those who want to have a bit more control over their style. By adding layers in certain areas, you can create a look that is unique and flattering.

How Do I Determine My Face Shape for the Perfect Haircut?

Picture of a woman with a new haircut To determine which face shape you have, grab a flexible tape measure and measure the length of your face, the width of your forehead, the width of your cheekbones, and the length and width of your jawline. Your measurements will most likely correspond to one of the face shapes listed below. Generally, there are 7 face shapes:

Oval
Round
Square
Heart
Diamond
Oblong
Triangular

An oval face shape is when the length of the face is longer than the width of the forehead and the width of the jawline, and the jaw is slightly rounded. A round face shape is when the length and width of the face are almost equal, and the jaw is round. A square face shape is when the length and width of the face are almost equal, and the jaw is angular. A heart face shape is when the forehead is wider than the jawline, and the chin is pointed. A diamond face shape is when the forehead is narrower than the jawline, and the cheekbones are the widest part of the face. An oblong face shape is when the face is longer than it is wide, and the jaw is slightly angled. Lastly, a triangular face shape is when the forehead is narrower than the jawline, and the jaw is pointed. Our professional stylists at Salon Essential will help you determine your face shape and find the perfect hairstyle to suit it!

What Haircuts Suit What Face?

A picture of a woman getting a haircut When it comes to choosing the right haircut for your face, it’s all about figuring out the shape of your face and selecting the right cut to complement it. For example, if you have an oval face, you should look for a haircut that adds volume to the sides of your face, such as a layered cut or a messy bob. If you have a round face, you should look for a haircut that lengthens your face, such as a shoulder-length cut with layers or a long, side-swept bang. If you have a square face, you should look for a haircut that softens the angles of your face, such as a long, layered cut or a side-parted bob. For those with a heart-shaped face, you should look for a haircut that adds volume to the sides of your face, such as a long, layered cut or a side-swept bang. Finally, if you have a triangular face, you should look for a haircut that softens the angles of your face, such as a long, layered cut or a side-parted bob.
