Notes

Starting points, not rules. Adapt to texture, growth patterns, maintenance, and the client’s goals.

Shape	Flattering cuts to explore	Go easy on (depending on the goal)
Oval	Bob; layered length; textured crop	Extra crown height if you want to keep your face from looking longer.
Round	Long layers; angled lob; crop with height	Chin-length bluntness and extra width at the cheeks if you want a longer outline.
Square	Wavy lob; side-parted cut; layers past jaw	A heavy straight line at jaw level if your goal is to soften the corners.
Heart	Chin-length bob; shoulder layers; side bangs	Heavy volume at the temples with very tight sides below it if you want balance.
Diamond	Jaw-length bob; layered lob; soft bangs	Very tight temples with all the volume at cheekbone level if you want balance.
Oblong	Wavy bob; full-sided crop; cut with bangs	Tall quiffs or very long, flat sides if you want a shorter-looking outline.
