I want to get a haircut but I don't know which styles will suit my face shape.
The key to finding the right 'do for you is BALANCE, and the first step in achieving this balance is finding out what your face shape is. Stand in front of a mirror, pull your hair back, and trace your face shape on the mirror using a lipstick bullet or a whiteboard marker. Step away from the mirror and study the shape. Is it Oval? Heart? Round? Diamond? Square? Once you know your face shape, it's time to find a trusted hair stylist who will help you achieve the best 'do for you. To get more ideas on cuts, flip through magazines and find celebs that have the same shape as you do, then show this to your stylist. Remember, however that finding the right balance is a tricky thing—what looks good on Ashley, Vanessa, or Miley may not necessarily look good on you, given their hair color and hair type.
