Types of men's faces

Face shapes

If you are concerned about your appearance, you should choose a haircut and/or a beard style according to the face shape. The same thing happens with both eyeglasses and sunglasses. Identifying the shape of our face is vital to obtain the most optimized appearance possible.

If you have gone out to buy sunglasses with a friend, it is likely that your friend has tried on some other model that you have found attractive, but when you put them on, you see how the effect is totally different. This is due to the shape of your face.

Just like every face shape, has a hairstyle associated, with the glasses and with the beards the same thing happens, although the latter in smaller measure.

Our face is the most important part of any person, a face that indicates traits of our personality and that is usually the main tool used to judge people.

As the saying goes "The first impression is the one that counts".

even though is not always like that. In my life I have had the opportunity to meet people who, through their faces, represented something totally different from the prejudices that I have associated.

You can judge someone by the type of shoes they wear, however, when you talk to them, you don't talk to their shoes, you go to your face.

When we say that our face projects everything about us to the outside world, we are not simply referring to the youthful appearance, but also to the character that we give off.

If you want to give a radical change to your appearance, you do not need to resort to image professionals (which too). You just have to use the same tools that they use, with the shape of the face being the basis of everything.

Uniform the shape of your face

The visual aspect of how we present our face ddepends on its proportions and shape. Although we can group face shapes into 7 categories, each of us has specific features that we want to hide (such as scars) or highlight even more (chin dimple).

Once we know what our traits are, both positive and negative, we can begin to take the necessary steps to make a style change, a radical change or simply a touch up for that area that we don't quite like.

Face shapes

While some stylists group face shapes into a total of 9, others reduce that number to 5. However, if we want to find the scale that best balances diversity and morphological categorization, we can group them into 7.

triangle face shape

The jawline is stronger than the cheekbones, with a smaller but relatively wide forehead and a pointed chin.

With the right style, the triangular face shape can evoke strength and authority by highlighting his strong jawline. Our goal is to reduce the volume of the jaw and highlight the forehead to restore balance.

oval face shape

Somewhat wide forehead with narrower cheekbones and a round, tapered jawline.

oval faces, present in most people, it is an ideal base for practically any type of hairstyle. Our object is to respect the proportions without deviating from them.

If we want to highlight a particular feature, we can choose sharp hairstyles to add angles and sharp areas to our appearance and thus move away from the rounded shapes of our face.

round face shape

Wide, circular cheekbones with a sharp jawline and forehead.

To try to get as far away from a round face as possible, we must highlight other recessive traits that add length to the face. Choosing a specific hairstyle, adding a moderately long beard, will allow us to reduce the roundness of our face.

oblong face shape

Tall, rectangular face with rounded corners. The forehead is wide, but similar in size to the cheekbones and jawline.

Far from moving away from this type of face shape, our goal is to take advantage of it to create width and reduce the importance of its length.

diamond face shape

Narrow forehead and chin with strong cheekbones.

Diamond-shaped faces tap into their potential promoting balance of proportions. We can curb the most prominent features of the sides, our cheekbones to highlight more recessive features of our face.

square face shape

The face is wide at all points. Broad forehead, strong cheekbones, and angular jawline.

square faces are ideal for experimenting, though if you've made it this far, chances are you've gotten tired of that phase.

Our objective is highlight our most characteristic features, but without especially standing out, since we can fall into error and modify the interpretation of the shape of our face.

heart shaped face shape

Broad forehead, rounded cheekbones that slope down to a small chin.

Heart-shaped faces offer us a perfect balance in the upper area of ​​the face, a balance that we can compensate by focusing on the lower part, using a medium beard, and even a mustache.

How to change the shape of the face

Short beard styles for men

We can slightly change the shape of our face without the need to go through an operating room (mainly because it is not a simple and affordable operation for everyone).

In this article, we show you what are the hairstyles that best suit every face shape. Along with the hairstyle, you should consider, if the type of beard you have, allow you to start adopting it in your day to day.

The beard is the only method we have at our disposal to be able to modify the shape of the bottom face, as long as we know what we're doing.

We can also opt for a knob if the idea of ​​the beard is not to our liking.

Be that as it may, you must bear in mind that the beard must take care of her the same or even more than the scalp, since the skin behind the hair it is not the same as the one found in the head.
