- Diamond: Narrow forehead & chin, wide cheekbones.
- Triangle: Narrow forehead, wider jaw / cheeks.

How to Match Short Hairstyle Types to Face Shapes
For Oval Face
Oval faces are balanced, so most short haircut styles work — especially chin-length bobs, soft pixies, and angled crops that highlight cheekbones.
For Round Face
To elongate round faces, add height at the crown and asymmetry. Blunt bobs just below the chin or side-swept pixies are perfect choices.
For Square Face
Soft, wispy layers and side parts offset a strong jawline. Avoid overly blunt lines that accentuate squareness.
For Oblong / Long Face
Focus on width — styles that add volume on the sides (like chin-length lobs or curtain bangs) visually shorten the face.
For Heart Face
Heart faces benefit from width at the jawline — try angled bobs or short shags with layered fringe.
For Diamond & Pear Faces
Textured pixies and cropped bobs with side-bangs add balance to narrower foreheads and wider jaws.
