By Ginny Beres More than anything, even your dress,and accessories,the right formal hairstyle will say: You look absolutelyfabulous! Learn just two attributes about your facialfeatures and you will never again have a problem finding the perfect hairstyle, for prom, homecoming or any specialoccasion. Why does knowing your face shape matter? As a general rule,duplicating the face shape with the hair shape, will createan ordinary look with no pizazz, or style. If you have around face, don’t settle on a round poufy or curly hairdo;it will only make your face look unusually round. Create interest with an angular and/or blunt hairstyle. Likewise,complement balance for a longish face is easy to do with ashort full cut and style, rather than long and straight. Proportion is the relationship between the length and the width of your face. Choose your hairstyle according to yourfacial proportions. Follow the guidelines here to find whetheryour facial structure is oblong, oval or round. There are actually several methods for finding the proportionsof your face. The method we will use now is the mirror method.Get the help of a trusted friend, who can assist you with thecalculations.You can also use a photo of yourself facing straightinto the camera. It won’t matter if it is a small photo, what we are looking for is proportion and that does not change with the size of the photo. You will need, however to take an accuratemeasurement, so the larger the photo the easier this will be. The average perfectly proportioned face is 1 1/2 time longer than the width. What we are trying to determine here is to what extent does your face vary from the norm. Remember, a perfectly proportioned face is very rare, you need to know your structure only for the purposes of enhancing your features with the very best formal or casual hairstyles and the right accessories. Directions: Stand directly in front of a mirror, so you can see your entireface and hairline. Remain very still, so you can take an accurate measurement. Do not sway forward or backward or from side to side.Pull your hair back totally away from your face and neck so you can determine your true bone structure. Length First, place a dot onto the mirror, at the uppermost point where your hair meets your forehead. Next, place a dot onto the mirror where the bottom of your chin show in the mirror. Width Now, place a dot onto the mirror where each of your cheeks are attheir widest point. This is usually at the same level as the top of your ears. These two measurements are very important. Write them down. Length ______ Width ______ Now, we are going to make a simple but very important calculation.Take the width and divide that number by the length. What numberdid you get? Write this number down. ___________. Your face is OBLONG if you are between .60-.69 Your face is a bit longer than average, you may have a high forehead or a longer chin. Your face is OVAL if you are between .70-.79 Your length is at or close to 1 and 1/2 times the width. Your shape is average. Your face is ROUND if you are between .80-.89 Your is considered round if your length is shorter than average. This is not to say that you must follow these guidelines, but by doing so you automatically complement your natural features, which creates balance and excitement, making you more attractive.
