How to Choose the Right Haircut for Your Face Shape

Why Face Shape Matters

Every man's face is different — and the right haircut can emphasize strengths and hide flaws. Professional barbers always consider face shape, hair density and texture, as well as the client's lifestyle.

Basic Face Shapes

Oval Face

The oval face is ideal — almost any haircut fits. You can try a classic side part, pompadour, or textured fade.

Round Face

For men with round faces, we recommend haircuts that add length to the face:

• High fade on the sides
• Longer hair on top
• Avoid very short hair on top

Square Face

Men with a square jaw look great with:

• Textured and soft cuts
• Medium-length hair
• Avoid too short sides

Oblong Face

For an oblong face, the following are suitable:

• Side volume — hair longer on the sides
• Fringe (bangs) visually shortens the face
• Avoid very high volume on top

Triangular Face (wide jaw, narrow forehead)

• Pompadour or quiff adds width at the top
• Light fade on the sides

Practical Tips

1. Bring a photo — if you see a cut you like, save it and show it to the barber
2. Tell us about your routine — if you don't want to style your hair daily, say so
3. Trust the professional — an experienced barber can recommend the best option
