Find a flattering haircut that works with your face shape! Here, get advice on choosing the best hairstyle for your face.
If you have a square face and a strong jaw, like Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Demi Moore, try to avoid severe, straight-across bangs that will make your face look even boxier. Short pixie cuts and chin-length bobs will also accentuate a square face. Instead, try wearing your hair shoulder length or longer (notice how these ladies all have long hair). Also, if you part it on the side, or wear an asymmetric, side-swept fringe, you'll soften the angles of your face.
If your face is round, like Jennifer Hudson’s and Drew Barrymore’s, wear your hair in layers around your face to create angles. Ask your stylist to cut the layers to accentuate your cheekbones. If you already have layers, try using a curling iron or blow-dryer to sweep the layers away from your face just above your cheekbones to make the cheekbones look sharper. Avoid a hair length above your shoulders, which will make your face look rounder. If you have bangs, wear them longer and wispier at the sides of your forehead to give the illusion of a narrower face. If you have a heart-shaped face, like Reese Witherspoon, Naomi Campbell, and Eva Longoria, create volume around your chin by using a blow dryer to make layers fuller or to add waves in the lower half of your hair. Avoid having too many curls or too much volume in the upper part of your hair. If your face is long, like Sarah Jessica Parker’s and Ashlee Simpson’s, avoid wearing your hair straight and past your shoulders, which can make your face look even longer. Keep your hair near or above your shoulders, and, to balance the length of your face, add soft waves for some body.

Jessica's Tips & Tricks
Don't throw out your bronzer! The other day I tried a new blush
and realized that it was much too pink — I looked like I had a fever.
Unfortunately, I was running late and didn't have enough time to wash my
face and start over. The solution: I toned down the pink with some
earth-toned bronzer that was left over from the summer.
