Perfect Hairstyles For Different Body Shapes

Read on to know the tips to choose the perfect hairstyle that compliments your body.

Hairstyle For Rectangle Body Shape

For a rectangle body shape, go for hairstyles with soft waves and multi-tonal shades to add movement. Avoid sharp lines or boxy cuts like a box bob. Layers work well for long hair, giving it dimension and avoiding a heavy look.

Hairstyle For Triangle Or Pear Body Shape

If you have a triangle or pear body shape, focus on creating width around your shoulders to balance out your hips. Curly hair can add volume, so embrace your natural curls. Shoulder-length cuts and blunt bangs are also great options for this body type.

Hairstyle For Hourglass Body Shape

If your hips and bust are almost the same size then opt for side parts and flowy, sexy hair to enhance your natural curves. To add a twist to the ultra-feminine style, consider playing with bold geometric lines or trying out a clean-cut super short hairstyle with textured layers on top.

Hairstyle For Round Or Oval Body Shape

If your chest area is bigger, hips are slimmer, and your midsection is fuller, you likely have what's often called a round or oval body type. To enhance this shape, opt for clothing with vertical lines and go for a long, sleek hairstyle. Choosing hairstyles with less volume can visually elongate your torso.
