5 Best Hairstyles to Try If You Have an Angular Face
There’s nothing more flattering than a hairstyle that enhances your facial lines and features. This is all the more important for angular face shapes as the right styling can soften a distinct chin or jawline. Angular face shapes are characterised by wide cheekbones, a broad forehead and a pronounced jawline. Melissa Hughe, National Technical Head, Schwarzkopf Professional, shares five hairstyles that you can do at home. "If one has a triangular face with a narrow jaw and chin then one would want to keep the hair away from the face to open up the facial focus and enhance the angles. For a more square shape with a wide jaw one would work more on concealing, by softening the angles with soft waves or texture, hair worn down to conceal the width and angles," says Melissa.
