Choose a short haircut for an oval face

The oval face is a classic model, a generous gift of nature, which is worth it to be shown to the public. The harmonious proportions of the oval face open up space for fashionable experiments and creating an individual image.

Short haircuts are a popular and well-founded choice. They highlight the strengths of the exterior and provide options for a variety of styling options. In order for the new hairstyle to add attractiveness and bring exclusively positive emotions, it is necessary to take into account important recommendations.

The ideal ratio of the proportions of length, width, smooth transition between the forehead, the cheekbones and the chin are the characteristic sides of the oval face. The absence of prominent zones that I would like to mask leaves room for a short hairstyle.

In other cases, when deciding on a suitable haircut, you need to be guided by several points.

• Hair structure. The stylist's task is to fit the features of the hair (thin, naughty, curly, tough) into the outline of the haircut and give it a volume sufficient to harmoniously frame the face contour. At the same time, the styled hair should look well-groomed and neat. The rebellion of the strands is welcomed only as a stylish element of the haircut and should be achieved by the work of the stylist.
• Features of the figure. Growth and fullness are essential arguments in creating a harmonious, short-haired look. On miniature women, hairstyles with a minimum hair length look good. Owners of high growth and magnificent forms should opt for more voluminous models of haircuts.

• Occupation dictates its own rules. A strict office dress code requires you to choose classic hairstyle models or those that can be easily transformed from classics to avant-garde using styling tools. If there are no strict requirements, then you can choose any haircut up to the most daring options.

Someone feels comfortable with a super short haircut at any age, others believe that the avant-garde on the head after forty years (or fifty, or ...) is inappropriate. Deciding on a haircut model ultimately depends on self-awareness and personal views on an acceptable image. Short haircuts are suitable for a full face type and especially for brunettes. They are universal for both adolescents and girls, and women after 45 years, 50 years old and 52 years old.
