The rectangular shape of the face is not as common as oval or round. Many consider her angular and completely unflattering. That is why a haircut for such a form must be selected with special care. The rectangular shape of the face is often confused with the square. However, although they are similar, there are certain differences. The rectangular shape of the face is more elongated. The length of the face is greater than the width, and quite significantly. In recent articles, we have already talked about how to choose a haircut for oval and triangular face. And in this article we will talk about the features when choosing a haircut for a rectangular face.
To begin, consider certain features when selecting a haircut for a rectangular shape. So, what should you be wary of when choosing a haircut:
- Smooth geometrically straight haircuts and cuts that only emphasize the angularity.
- Volume in the crown area, which only further lengthens the face.
- Strongly combed back hair, overly revealing the face.
- Too short haircuts.
IMPORTANT! Perhaps the only face shape in which Pixie's haircut is contraindicated is a rectangular shape.
What is worth adopting when choosing a haircut for a rectangular face:
- Lush dense bangs that can smooth corners at the level of the forehead;
- Asymmetric elements in the form of bangs, or when creating a hairstyle - they will smooth out the corners as well as possible;
- Light, knocking strands at the level of the temples and chin can also remove the angular shape;
- Soft waves are ideal for creating a romantic look with a rectangular face shape.
Long haircuts for a rectangular shape of the face
Of course, the most acceptable haircut for a rectangular face is a cascading haircut. It is she who is able to smooth out all sharp corners, with the help of strands framing her face in the area of the cheekbones. Any volume created on a rectangular face using a cascading haircut, or ladder, looks very feminine and romantic. It is especially worth emphasizing the creation of light curls and waves. They are the best able to give the image so lacking tenderness and softness. Bangs are best done oblique and asymmetric.
Medium haircuts for a rectangular shape of the face
IMPORTANT! Medium length is ideal for creating a haircut with a rectangular face.
It is haircuts of medium length that can not only smooth the angularity of lines, but also give elegance to the image. Such haircuts can be safely attributed to an elongated bean-bob, a middle cascade, a bob and light curls. A bob or bob haircut that tapers down can divert attention from sharp cheekbones, smoothing corners and bringing the face shape closer to an oval, considered ideal. Do not forget about asymmetric haircuts. They will look their best on a rectangular face. And this season they are at the peak of popularity, as they look very stylish and beautiful.
Short haircuts for a rectangular face shape
With short haircuts, owners of a rectangular shape of the face need to be quite neat. As we said above, the pixie haircut is almost completely contraindicated, however, like other boyish haircuts. If you can not imagine yourself without short hair, then it is better to give preference to a bob haircut with elongated tips. Do not cut your hair shorter than the earlobe. Even when creating soft curls on it, it will be quite difficult to remove the angularity of a rectangular face.
