It's a well known fact that choosing a hairstyle that matches our face shape greatly

increasing the chances of having a hairstyle that will meet most of our greatest expectations. This principle is true when trying to select the perfect layered hairstyle as well. Discover the best layered hairstyle for your face shape.

Layered hairstyles are a great way to spice up your look without sacrificing hair length or making tons of adjustments. A couple of well chosen layers can give extra texture to the hair as well as creating interest and even drawing attention from certain facial features that might be less than perfect. While the style of the layers might be different as the fashion trends change, it's always a good idea to choose a hairstyle that matches our personal characteristics and that allows us to take advantage of all the perks a suitable hairstyle can easily provide.

For a round shape face cuts that fall just below the chin or soft, graduated layers are strongly recommended as they make your face look slimmer and tend to remove weight from the sides. You can also make bangs, but keep them long or side-swept.

But, before anything, you must determine whether you have a round face or not.

Take a tape measure or a ruler.

1.Measure the face across the top of the cheekbones, then measure across your jaw line, between the widest points.

2.Measure the tip of your face line to the bottom of your chin.

3.Measure across your forehead at the widest points, usually between the eyebrows and hairline.

Round faces

If you have found out that you have a round face, remember either to have short hair or chin length hair. You should consider layering your hair right from the top and keep your hair close to your face. Do not cut your hair very, very short and have a haircut that is rounded and ends at your chin. This will exaggerate your face shape even more. Straight bangs are not recommended, but if you love bangs, you should curl them and wear them to the side. These types of hairstyles will make your face look longer, which is what you want to strive for. Do not keep a lot of hair near the sides of your face and near your ears. However, wispy curls curled towards your face is recommendable. The point of all these hairstyles is to make your face look longer and less rounder and to accentuate your beautiful features.

Square Face

A square face has a very sharp angled jawline and has square shaped eyebrows. In order to lessen these features, you should strive for hairstyles that emphasize the cheekbones. Hairstyles worn in curls and waves will give shape to your square face. The length of hair that is perfect for you is about 1-1/2? below the chin or to have shoulder length hair. Your hair at these lengths will help to alleviate the squareness of your jaw line. It is advisable not to let your hair hang and better to wear a side part than a center part. Any freeflowing hairstyle for this shape will look wonderful.

Oval face

Since the oval face shape is considered the ideal face shape those who are fortunate enough to have this face shape will have no difficulties choosing a hairstyle that suits them regardless of the hair length. There are virtually no restrictions when it comes to the style of the layers which means that the only thing that should be kept in mind is to avoid hairstyles that are too overwhelming for our facial features. Try to avoid heavy bangs.
