Advices: The square shaped face need height on top and narrowness at the sides. Deep side parts, texture, and soft bangs helps balance the square face shape. Longer length looks great with their more angular and powerful jawline. This face shape should avoid straight lines.

Tips: Curls and waves are a go-to for this face shape and it's easy to see why. Sometimes the chiseled bone structure of a square-shaped face can use a little softening. And a wavy short cut or long bouncy curls will help you achieve that. Particularly, if the features are sharp, curls or waves are a sure-fire way to take the attention away form a defined jaw.

Here are some hairstyles that work well for individuals with a square face shape:

  1. Soft Waves: Soft, flowing waves or curls can help soften the sharp angles of a square face. Whether you have long or short hair, adding some gentle waves or curls can create a more feminine and balanced look.

  2. Long Layers: Long hair with layers that frame the face can be very flattering for square faces. These layers add movement and softness to the jawline and cheekbones.

  3. Side-Swept Bangs: Side-swept bangs that are longer on one side can help break up the squareness of the face and draw attention to the eyes. They add a touch of asymmetry that complements the face shape.

  4. Bob Haircut: A long bob (lob) or a classic bob haircut can work well for square faces. Be sure to keep the ends soft and not too blunt, which can make the jawline appear even more angular.

  5. Pixie Cut: If you prefer short hair, consider a pixie cut with some soft layers or side-swept bangs. This can create a chic and stylish look that suits a square face shape.

  6. Updos: Updos like messy buns, chignons, or side-swept upstyles can be elegant choices for formal occasions. They can also help balance the face by adding height at the crown.

  7. Layered Shag: A layered shag haircut can add texture and movement to your hair. It softens the angles of the face and creates a more relaxed, casual look.

  8. Half-Up Hairstyles: Half-up hairstyles, where some of the hair is pulled back and secured, can draw attention to the upper part of the face and create a harmonious balance.

  9. Curly or Textured Styles: Adding curls or texture to your hair can help break up the squareness of the face. Consider a messy, textured look for a more relaxed vibe.

  10. Asymmetrical Styles: Asymmetrical cuts or styles can add an element of visual interest and draw attention away from the strong jawline. For example, an asymmetrical bob or pixie can be flattering.

Remember that personal style and hair texture also play a role in choosing the right hairstyle. It's a good idea to consult with a hairstylist who can assess your face shape and recommend a hairstyle that suits your features and preferences. Additionally, don't forget to consider factors like maintenance and styling time when choosing a hairstyle that fits your lifestyle.
