About This Quiz

Choosing the right hairstyle can be such a pain sometimes. You need to consider your face shape, your hair texture, and if those two aren't complicated enough, you've got to match it to your body type, too. It may seem like an actual mini job, finding this ideal haircut that fits you perfectly, but if you want to look like the best version of yourself, you've got to do it. It doesn't matter how cute your dress is or how flawless your makeup may be – if the haircut isn't flattering, you will not look your best.

Just as you find the perfect jeans cut for your legs and hips or the ideal dress for your figure or the right shoes for your feet, matching your haircut with the body type mother nature gave you is essential if you want to look outstanding.

Of course, the cut still needs to match your face shape, and it needs to look good with your natural hair texture. It may be tricky to find the haircut that flatters you most with so many factors you need to consider, but hopefully, this quiz will get you one step closer to the final decision.
Do you already know which hairstyle works best with your body type? Take the quiz to find out which cut flatters your figure most.
