Let the Face Shape Guide assist you in selecting a style that is
perfect for you. Your facial shape is the starting point to choosing
a style that flatters you.
To find out the shape of your face, measure it with a tape measure
- and write them down: |
- Measure your face across the top of your cheekbones.
- Measure across jawline from the widest point to the widest point.
- Measure across forehead to the widest point. Generally the widest
point will be about halfway between your eyebrows and hairline.
- Measure from the tip of your hairline to the bottom of chin.
