Your Hair Style is a Fashion Statement

A beautiful dress, light make up and a different hair style can completely change your entire appearance. Once you decide to get a haircut you need to understand two most important points, the shape of your face and length you wish to opt for, as both of these points need to be considered when finding the style that suits you the best for a gorgeous look. So lets look at the face of your face and see what style would sit you and also mention some well known celebs.

Round face:   Kate Winslet and Drew Barrymore have round faces. The perfect hair style has face framing layers with bangs that curve to the side which will help to slim the face. Length (always below the chin) and fullness at the top with less fullness on the sides of your hair style will make your face appear slimmer and longer. Short bobs and blunt cuts should be avoided. Off center parts will make your face appear less round.

Oval face:

An oval face is perfectly proportioned with chiseled-looking cheekbones. This is the face shape by which all other face shapes are judged by. Because of the perfect proportions, this face shape lends itself to any hairstyle. You can experiment to see which one works best with your type of hair. Here are some famous oval faces you might know: Cameron Diaz, Cindy Crawford, Angelina Jolie, Courtney Cox Arquette, Elle MacPherson, Heather Locklear, Mariah Carey and Julia Roberts.

You can consider yourself lucky if this is the shape of your face in terms of hairstyle variety because just about every hairstyle flatters it!

Gwyneth Paltrow and Kirstie Alley shaped faces look better with short or medium hair, with bangs to soften the face. As you have a rectangular face long length is not a right choice so you should be very careful while choosing the style for your hair. This face shape is long and thin with a more pointed chin. You should pick a hairstyle with width and length. Fluffy bangs with a short layered cut, with fullest at the temples, will make your face look wider. You can also pick a hair style with a shoulder length layered cut that has lots of waves or curls to add softness and fullness to a long pointed face.

Try to avoid the long, flat, and straight hair style. It only serves to make your face look longer.

Square face:

Demi Moore, Calista Flockhart and Sandra Bullock are included in this set. Short and medium length hairstyles are best suited keeping away from long hair. A square face has a broader jawline and forehead. Pick a hairstyle that is fuller on the top and sides. A blunt hair cut, that falls below the chin, with lots of feathery bangs is ideal.

Here are some styles that Demi More has worn over the years. I actually love her middle look, even though now it's a bit out of date.

Heart face:

Ashley Judd and Michelle Pfeiffer look good with chin length or long hair. Stay away from short hair. If you are crazy about long hair which is very much in fashion and you have a heart face you can explore this combination for your makeover. Ashley looks like a princess with that hairstyle, plus the light make-up tops it off.

Triangular face: Kathy Ireland and Martina McCutcheon shape-faces should be wearing hair either short or tied at the nape. This face shape is the opposite of a heart shaped face. Picture a heart upside down. This face shape has a wider jawline and your face gets gradually narrower as you go up. You can wear a shorter hair style to balance this out. Going for a styling hairstyle is not enough but a perfect mixture of your look and style is very necessary to give you a fashionable look.

Diamond face:

Linda Evangelista, Katherine Hepburn and Sophia Loren type faces can wear any length of hair and look fabulous. This face shape has a small forehead and chin with very prominent cheekbones. It lends itself to a variety of hairstyles. A shoulder length blunt cut with some wispy bangs will disguise the fact that your face is widest in the center. You can also wear a short curly layered cut and accomplish the same thing. Your cheekbones are your best asset, so be sure to give them a little blush.

If you are not sure about the shape of your face contact some fashion professional. When it is about your look you just can't take chance.

Length of hair: Hairstyle length can totally decide what types of looks can be achieved. Longer hairstyles can develop longer waves or fancy updos without the need for extensions. Medium lengths are very versatile and tons of distinctive looks can be produced like classic bobs and sleek simple cuts. Short hairstyles have wavered in popularity but women seem to love shorter hair because of it is easier to take care of and style. One of the hottest short hairstyles is definitely Natalie Portman's pixie cut which shows that short hairstyles do not fail to keep up in style with other hairstyle lengths.

Is your hair type suited to the celebrity hairstyle that you'd like? Some styles are created by the use of a flat-iron to get the straight look. If you want a style that is dead straight and you have hair with a natural curl, this is going to take some time! On the other hand, if you want the romantic, long tresses of curls and your hair hasn't a single wave to it, you're going to need a salon semi-perm or daily curling. Try to find a celebrity hairstyle that fits your hair type for ease of maintenance.

If you want a fashionable style, look to the celebrities. However, make sure that the celebrity hairstyles you like suit your face shape and hair type.
