About This Quiz

Hairstyles are an amazing way to express inner confidence and beauty. But with so many types of cuts and styles to choose from, it can be difficult to select the right style for you. So we've come up with a solution to this problem, and that secret lies in your gorgeous face!

Your face shape must be taken into account when picking your hairstyle. There are six common face shapes: round, oval, square, rectangle, diamond and heart. Reese Witherspoon, for example, famously has a heart-shaped face. Her broad forehead and pointed chin are the perfect canvas for bangs! The right hairstyle will frame your face and highlight all your best features. Do people always compliment your smile? We can find a style that emphasizes your pearly whites. Love your eyes? Let's find a style that draws all eyes to your peepers. 

We also can't forget about your hair type and lifestyle. Let's say you have very curly hair and a heart-shaped face. Even though we just said bangs are perfect for heart-shaped faces, it isn't that simple. It's not that you must avoid bangs if your hair is curly, but if your hair texture is unpredictable, you might want to avoid the extra challenge. 

Your perfect hairstyle is waiting for you at the end of this quiz!
