A hairstyle affect your whole appearance, not just that of your face. When choosing a new hairstyle you should take into account your overall body shape. If you are a traditional pear shape, don’t choose an elfin hairstyle; it will draw attention to the lower half of your body, making your hips look wide. Petite women should avoid masses of very curly hair as this makes the head appear out of proportion with the rest of the body.

• If you wear glasses: Try to choose frames and a hairstyle that compliment each other. Large spectacles could spoil a neat, feathery cut, and very fine frames could be overpowered by a large voluminous style. Remember to take your glasses to the salon when having your hair restyled so that your hair stylist can take their shape into consideration when deciding on the overall effect.
• Prominent nose: Choose a hairstyle that incorporates softness into your appearance. A wispy fringe would work well, and a light perm would add height and movement, to balance out your face.
• Pointed chin: you need to style your hair with plenty of width at the jawline.Don’t have your hair cut too short.
• Low forehead: Choose a style with a wispy fringe, rather than one with a full fringe. Choose softer style and avoid anything too severe.
• High forehead: This is best hidden with mid-length fringes.
• Receding chin: Select a hairstyle, that comes just below the chin level, ideally with lots of waves or curls around your shoulders.
• Uneven hairline: A fringe should easily manage to conceal this problem.

Your hairstyle has a big influence on your appearance, so be honest with yourself and take a critical look in the mirror before choosing a new style.
