Aromatherapy

Aromatherapy is the practice of using the natural oils extracted from flowers, bark, stems, leaves, roots or other parts of a plant to enhance psychological and physical well-being. The inhaled aroma from these "essential" oils is widely believed to stimulate brain function. Essential oils can also be absorbed through the skin, where they travel through the bloodstream and can promote whole-body healing.A form of alternative medicine, aromatherapy is gaining momentum. It is used for a variety of applications, including pain relief, mood enhancement and increased cognitive function.There are a wide number of essential oils available, each with its own healing properties. It traces back more than 6000 years, since ancient Egyptians, Greeks, Persians, Romans and probably Chinese used to burn scented flowers and herbs and enjoy aromatic bath, massage and skin care for curative and cosmetic purposes.

Essential oil:
Essential oils are non-oily aromatic liquids occurring naturally in various parts of plants, herbs, flowers, fruits, woods and spices. They contain the life force of the plant and have the ability to strengthen our immune system and to stimulate our body’s natural healing abilities.
Essential Oils are highly concentrated and should not be used directly on the skin or near the eyes. Using oils neat on the skin can create a rash, itching, an allergic reaction, and even severe pain.They must always be diluted in a suitable carrier oil for massage, or diluted with water for baths and vaporization.Essentials oil should be kept away from children and pets and stored in dark colour glass bottles away from sunlight and heat.

paraffin manicure

2012-01-15T20:01:00.000-08:00

As explain before,manicure is a procedure that is performed as a beauty treatment for the hands and fingernails.A paraffin manicure is a type of manicure that includes a paraffin wax treatment to replenish and soften the skin. This specialty manicure involves more steps than a standard one, which can make it last longer and feel more relaxing. A paraffin manicure can be enjoyed at home or at a luxurious salon or spa.For paraffin manicure we need to perform all of steps of basic manicure firstly and after a relaxing hand and arm massage we should prepare warm paraffin to dip the hand.It will help to soften and smooth the recipient's hands.Spas often enhance the soothing qualities of the paraffin manicure by adding calming essential oil to the wax for an aromatherapy aspect to the treatment.During a paraffin manicure, the warm paraffin wax can be applied a number of ways but before applying the paraffin use a moisturizer.
The most common application is by dipping the hands several times into a basin of melted paraffin wax until they are well coated.
Other methods include applying the wax by wrapping pre-proportioned thin sheets around the hands or by brushing it directly onto the skin.
A plastic bag or glove is placed over the wax, and a hot, wet towel can be wrapped around the outside to enhance the moisture and heat. Alternatively, thermal gloves can be used for the same purpose. The hands are left to soak in the wax for as long as 30 minutes. When removed, the cooled wax does not stick to the skin but peels off easily, sometimes in one large piece, leaving the hands moist and soft.
A paraffin manicure is known for hydrating dry skin,opening the pores,and increasing circulation to the hands. It helps retain the skin’s natural moisture and is especially beneficial in the winter months, when hands tend to get dry and cracked. A paraffin treatment also can have therapeutic properties such as relieving sore muscles and joints, providing better range of motion in the hands and easing the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome,eczema,arthritis and other ailments.
Many people prefer at-home manicures, and adding a paraffin treatment can be easy and inexpensive. Many of the same moisturizing and smoothing benefits for that skin that are provided by a professional paraffin manicure can be obtained at home with a few basic supplies that are available at beauty supply stores or major discount retailers. A small basin, a block of paraffin wax and a pair of protective gloves are all that is needed to include this therapeutic treatment to a personal hand and nail regimen in the comfort of one's own home.

Basic Pedicure

2011-09-29T14:32:00.000-07:00

Like the nails on your hand the nails on your feet too need to be taken care of. You can give yourself a pedicure at home. Given below are the steps to follow for a home pedicure.
1) Remove old nail polish completely. Using cotton balls leaves traces of cotton on your nails try using cotton bands instead. Soak the cotton band with acetone remover and remove the old polish. If the color is not coming off the press the cotton on to the nail and let it soak for a while.
2) It is always best to use high quality clippers to cut your toenails. Cut your nails straight across, leaving about 1/8" of length. Do not let your nail extend over the tip of your toe.
3) For a soft square shape, file the nail around the corners in one direction. Use emory boards and not metal files, as metal files rip nails. The smoother surface is for smoothing the nail edge while the coarser surface is for shortening and shaping nails.
4) Apply cuticle cream
5) Fill a big flat-bottom bowl or foot spa machine with warm water. Add Mineral salts, aromatherapy oils or pedicure shampoo and let your feet soak for to minutes. The more calloused your feet are the longer they need to stay soaked. Add about quarter cup of milk to the warm water. Lactic acid in the milk loosens dead skin.
6)Apply cuticle pusher and cutter to the base of each nail and rub in. Wait for a minute and then using an orange wood stick, slowly push the skin back where it meets the nail. 7)Use brush and shampoo in a circulate motion.
8) Use foot scrapper and loofah or a wet pumice stone and remove the dead on the balls and heels of your feet.
9)Use an ex-foliating body or foot scrub.
10)Use a massage cream for a relaxation one.
There are some tips of pedicure also that will explain more about them later.

Professional Manicure Tips

A manicure is a beauty treatment for the fingernails and hands. Manicures usually involve soaking the hands, applying hand lotion, filing and shaping the nails and applying nail polish. There are also special manicures that will explain later.

It is possible to give yourself a professional manicure or pedicure at home. You can even create your own professional manicure sets (including pedicure machines for those who want all the manicure and pedicure sets and tools). All you need is a few simple tools and knowledge of the procedure that professional manicurists use.

Pedicure is the same sort of treatment for the feet. Again, it involves soaking the feet, filing and shaping the nails and applying lotion and nail polish.

The Procedure (for doing your own manicures and pedicures)

Below are the procedure that would be followed by a professional manicurist. By following the same procedure, you can also give yourself a professional-looking manicure. Before you start, though, you will need to collect some tools and put together one of your own professional manicure sets.

PROFESSIONAL MANICURE SETS

Here are all the tools you will need to give yourself a manicure or pedicure. Some items on the list are essential, but some items can be left until later. You can also buy professional manicure sets or individual manicure and pedicure sets.

The Basics

Bowl of warm water (this will have to be a very large bowl for a pedicure).
Nail polish remover.
Cuticle pusher (preferably orangewood)
A hand towel.
Nail clippers or scissors.
Clear nail polish.
Cotton pads.
Finger brush.
Nail file or emery board.
Nail polishing board (or nail buffer).

Top coat.
Professional Items
Pedicure machines (can also be used for manicures).

HOW TO DO A BASIC MANICURE

If you have ever wondered how to do a manicure, the following list should be helpful. It is a list of steps that professional manicurists take when giving people manicures. By following the same steps (and using your own professional manicure sets) you too can give yourself a professional manicure.

Remove any old nail polish with nail polish remover.
Trim the fingernails and shape them with a nail file. Metal nail files or emery boards can be used, but professionals usually use fine glass files. To file properly, start with the file at the outer edge of the nail and move towards the center. You should not file nails with a saw-like motion.
Apply a cuticular cream or oil
Soak the hands in Luke warm water that added shampoo,Mineral salt, Antiseptic lotion and H2O2 before, for 10 Min.
The cuticles are pushed back with a cuticle pusher. Metal cuticle pushers can be used, but they may damage the fingernail. It is best to use orangewood cuticle pushers.
use a brush with shampoo and apply in circulate motions.
use scrub cream.
Finish the manicure with a hand massage. You can use hand lotion or oils. Some manicurists will soak the hands in paraffin or wax before putting on hand lotion.(explain them later)
Polish the fingernails with a polishing board (or nail buffer). A polishing board has a soft foam layer with a polishing surface.
Apply nail polish. Most professionals apply at least one layer of clear nail polish. If you want to apply colored nail polish, use at least three layers. Start with a base coat. Then put on the color coat. Finish with a top coat. Clear nail polish can be used in place of a base coat and top coat.

Hair Texture

2011-05-23T18:41:00.000-07:00

Hair texture is the measure of the circumference of the hair strand itself. Professionals classify the texture of hair as being "coarse", "fine", or "medium".

Fine hair texture

Fine hair texture is very, very small in diameter, and tends to be weightless and flyaway. Frequently, it’s quite straight and won’t hold a curl easily. Fine hair generally takes chemical processes easily, but care must be taken in using perms, relaxers and other treatments. Due to the fine texture, this hair type is easily over-processed. Careful timing is essential to avoid over-processed, damaged hair.

Medium texture

If your hair is not flyaway, or thick and coarse, it is a medium hair texture. This is sometimes referred to as “normal” texture. If this describes your hair, you should consider yourself lucky, as your hair texture is the most common and most manageable. This hair texture type is also the easiest to process. Medium hair texture tends to take perms and relaxers equally well.

Coarse hair

Coarse hair texture has a thick diameter, and often feels rough. Coarse hair is the strongest hair texture. This strength is a good thing, unless you are trying to use a chemical process, such as a perm or relaxer. Strong, coarse hair texture is also the most difficult to process. If you have coarse hair texture, you may find that it doesn't always take a perm well, or more frequent perming is necessary.

Hair texture varies from individual to individual, and can be different in separate areas of the same head. You may have coarse hair on the top of the head and fine hair at the nape of the neck. Race and ethnicity are irrelevant in determining hair texture, as coarse, medium and fine hair can be found among all racial and ethnic groups.

Dry skin makeup guide

Makeup can worsen dry skin conditions therefore dry skin should be prepared for makeup before applying it. It is essential to understand and follow the right methodology to apply makeup for dry skin.

Exfoliate: Exfoliating the skin will remove the dead cells. Therefore exfoliate face, neck and lips before applying makeup.

Moisturize: Moisturize your face after cleansing. Use a rich moisturizer that is non-greasy as oily formulations can clog the pores of the skin.

Primer: Apply a speck of makeup primer specially formulated for dry skin. Start applying from the center of your face outward.

Foundation: Use a liquid foundation, apply small dots and blend it into your skin using a makeup sponge. A base with very fine light-reflective particles will give a natural-look and dewy finish. Foundations with a reasonable degree of oil will retain moisture in the skin.

Concealer: Concealers that are liquid or creamy suit dry skin. Concealers can be used to hide birthmarks, dark spots, pimples and scars. Do not apply concealer under the eyes as it might highlight the dark circles. For dry skin makeup, choose a concealer that is a shade lighter than the foundation you use.

Eye makeup: Select creamy eye shadows and eyeliner. Use mascara and brow cosmetics of your choice.

Blush: Use a creamy blush as gels, powder and cheek stains do not suit dry skin type.

Lip makeup: Use a balm or salve. Over this, apply lip gloss or moisturizing lipstick.

Makeup application tips for dry skin

Always use cosmetics designed specifically for dry skin.
Before applying makeup, apply moisturizer and wait for a few minutes. This will soften the dry skin and bring out the best of your makeup.
During summer you can use a tinted moisturizer in place of a regular foundation as it is very light when compared to foundations.
Exfoliating the skin at least once a week helps the skin to absorb the moisturizer better.
Use an eye cream as the skin around the eyes is very delicate and eye creams are absorbed better when compared to moisturizers.
Use a foundation brush to apply foundation; this will help you use very little foundation thus avoiding a caked appearance. Apply foundation in downward strokes.
Apply the cream blusher high on the cheek and blend well. Choose pink blush if you have a blue or pink undertone to the skin, peach color if you have a golden undertone to the skin.
Use peach or neutral pink eye shadow all over the eyelid.

Choose the right makeup

Choose products that can cover the blemishes of dry skin.
Make sure that the creams and cosmetics have a water-based combination.
Creams and cosmetics made from water-based fruits such as watermelon are best suited for dry skin makeup.

Makeup products for dry skin

For dry skin choose oil-based or water based products. Avoid makeup products that are oil-free, avoid matte products too. Do not use powders, as they will dry the skin further.

Foundation: Use moisture rich, oil-based, hydrating, light reflecting or silicone-based liquid formulas. You can try cream or mousse foundations and tinted moisturizer too. Each of these products offers a special degree of coverage and finish.

Concealer: Use cream or liquid based forms.

Eye makeup: Use cream and silk-textured powder. Use soft, creamy pencils and cream eyeliner.

Face Powder: Dry skin people need not use powder as it will make the skin further dry.

Makeup brushes

2010-05-08T06:29:00.000-07:00

How To Use Make-Up Brushes

Step 1: Blusher brush
Use angled blusher brushes to get into the socket line and for applying highlighter to the tops of the cheeks. Blusher brushes are useful for applying powder to the whole face, giving a light even finish.

Step 2: Eye shadow brush
An eye shadow brush can be used to apply eye shadow all over the lid, and can be used to apply concealer into the tiny corners and lines of the eyes.

Step 3: Lipstick brush
A lipstick brush gives an even coverage of lipstick, and is wide but also thin and tapered for effective application in the ‘cupids bow' and lip corners.

Step 4: Eyeliner brush
An eyeliner brush, with long bristles and a fine point, can get in between eyelashes and gives very fine, neat detail.

Step 5: Care
If you use synthetic brushes, clean them regularly to keep them in good condition.

Ideally spend more to get brushes made from natural hair.

How to Clean Makeup Brushes

Step 1: Run the bristles of the makeup brush under warm running water.

Step 2: Apply a small amount of shampoo to bristles and work into a light lather.

Step 3: Rinse bristles thoroughly under running water. You will notice that the water leaving the brush is tinted from old makeup.

Step 4: Continue rinsing until no color leaves the brush.

Step 5: Allow it to air-dry.

How we can collect best makeup products?

2010-05-06T04:37:00.000-07:00

I always have these questions.

"what are the best makeup products ? "

"How i can collect the best for myself?"

I have tried a lot to answer these questions and be the best in makeup collector.Somebody always get confused while purchasing and some others always purchase and purchase without any considering that this is suit for her or not.

I believe that all products are not suit for every body and every body could get it after some experiences.

If you was confused while using makeup products and don't have any useful information follow me and read carefully this article.

Identifying Your Skin Type

It is important to know your skin type. Examine your face closely. Do you see large pores, flakes, or redness? Each can indicate a different skin type or be indicators of oily skin. Take a tissue to your face and blot. Did you absorb oil? If your self-examination reveals large pores and oil on the tissue, you could have oily skin. The redness can be from excessive washing or sensitive skin. I have combination skin. It is very oily with large pores in the t-zone and dry around my cheeks. If you are still unsure, consult a dermatologist or aesthetician.

Taking Care of Oily Skin

Caring for your skin now will provide benefits for the future. Your skin will thank you five years from now. Know how to take care of you skin, both inside and out. It is important to drink water so that the skin remains hydrated. Taking vitamins, especially vitamin B2 and B5 will also help your body. These vitamins can help the skin look more radiant and improve paleness.

Products for Preparing Oily Skin for Makeup

When cleansing, use an oil-based cleanser since it will help dissolve oil better. Do not use harsh cleaners that leave the skin feeling tight. This tightness will restrict oil flow and lead to clogged pores later. Also, massage the face when cleansing to avoid pushing dirt and oil into the pores. Scrubbing will clog the pores. Rinse with warm water to help dissolve oil. Use a mud or clay mask one or two times a week.

Read labels

Look for products that are for oily skin. Avoid products that contain alcohol since alcohol dries the skin. Petroleum based products such as mineral oil contain too much oil and can further clog pores. Use astringents containing acetone. Acetone dissolves oil better. Moisturizers need to be oil-free. You may only need to moisturize certain areas such as around the eyes. Mature skin will need to moisturize the entire face.

I find that applying lemon juice before applying makeup helps my skin's appearance. Witch-hazel will do the same. Both are excellent ways to create a more balanced ph for the skin. You may even want to spritz lavender water on your face several times a day. It is a good hydrator for oily skin as well as providing antiseptic properties.

Makeup for Oily Skin

Read labels. There are some items that should be avoided and some items that you should look for in makeup for oily skin. There are certain makeup companies that are known for their work in designing products for specific skin types. I recommend Clinique . It has a reputation for excellent care and products. I also like Jane Iredale Cosmetics . This is a mineral based line used by many dermatologists.

Avoid

1. Avoid products containing oil from petroleum. This includes mineral oil. Use oil-free makeup or makeup that is intended to benefit oily skin.

2. Avoid makeup that contains alcohol. Alcohol will strip the skin of oil, which may cause the body to produce even more.

3. Look for ingredients such as bismuth oxychloride and dimenthicone. Both can clog pores and may cause blemishes. These are commonly found in foundation or powder based products.

Beneficial

1. Find foundations that contain titanium dioxide, a naturally occurring sun protector.

2. Makeup for oily skin should contain serecite to reduce the appearance of pores and help absorb oil.

3. Kaolin clay added in foundation will help oil control.

4. Zinc oxide used in makeup will act as an anti-inflammatory.

A makeup artist will use products designed for a customer's skin type in order to promote healthy skin. It is equally important for the makeup artist to become familiar with products and ingredients for specific skin care. Knowing how to take care of a customer's skin will benefit the client and the makeup artist's reputation.

Now if you have dry skin follow this

Take care of dry skins

Dry skin has a low level of sebum and can be prone to sensitivity. The skin has a parched look caused by its inability to retain moisture. It usually feels "tight" and uncomfortable after washing unless some type of moisturizer or skin cream is applied. Chapping and cracking are signs of extremely dry, dehydrated skin.

. Cleanse your dry skin regularly
. Always use cosmetics designed specifically for dry skin
. Use non detergent, neutral-pH products to cleanse your skin
. Before applying makeup, apply moisturizer and wait for a few minutes. This will soften the dry skin and bring out the best of your makeup
. Follow a bath or a shower with a mild application of baby oil.

products for preparing dry skin for make up

So, before using the make up products, always make it a point to ensure that the creams and cosmetics you use for makeup are prepared in water-based composites. The creams and cosmetics that contain extracts of water-based fruits such as watermelon are best to use in your make up for dry skin, as these extracts can make skin livelier.

Mae up for dry skins

Make up for dry skin gives effective results for any type of make up–liquid or powder. Both are safer and effective for dry skin. So, continue using any of the two make ups for your dry skin unless it makes your skin even drier or makes you to break out.

eyes make up

2010-05-02T05:51:00.000-07:00

Today I'm going to talk about eye make up and its effect on whole face.The eyes are main focal points of the faces.Now there is a question " How to select the color and pattern of eye make up?"
It depends on many factors like eye color,face shape,eye shape etc.that I will explain about some factors:

1)Eye shape:

Almond Shaped Eyes
Oval Shaped Eyes
Round Eyes

Almond Eyes: This eye shape is characterized by an upswept outer corner. Many women with this eye shape want to increase the depth and intensity of their eyes, so experiment with eyeliner as a bold sweep on the upper lid, neutral colors lining under the eye, and upper and lower liner in various shades. To help almond eyes appear larger, limit liner to the outer portion of the top lid. To make almond eyes appear more round, stop liner before the outer corner of the eye, or use a lighter shade or smoky or smudged look in that area.

Oval Eyes: To give an oval eye an illusion of more height, use liner to create a thin line at the outer corner and gradually thicken towards the middle of the eye. Continue in slightly towards the inner corner, reducing again to a fine line. If your eyes are small, skip the lower liner; otherwise draw a very fine line under the lower lashes

Round Eyes: This eye shape if often large, and open-looking, and many women like to use makeup to elongate the eye. Use darker liner to slightly extend beyond the eyelid at the outer corners to give this illusion. Use a medium shade of eye shadow on the eyelid (up to the crease) and extend the shade slightly both slightly up toward the brow bone and slightly down toward the lower lid to create a more elongated eye appearance.

2)Eye placement:

Hooded Eyes
Wide-Set Eyes
Prominent Eyes
Deep-Set Eyes
Close-Set Eyes
Drooping Eyes

Hooded eyes, sometimes also referred to as "bedroom eyes" appear as if the eye lid is partially closed. Hooded eyes often need more prominence, so to give this illusion:

1)Use a light highlight shade on brow bone and inner corner along lash line.
2)Apply an eye shadow shade slightly darker than the highlight shade over the entire lid and hooded area of the eye.
3)Use a darker contour shade on the outer corner, sweeping up to a light peak.
4)Finish with a liner to define the lash lines

Wide-set eyes are spaced out in the face, and the goal is typically to bring the eyes closer together for a more proportionate look. This can be achieved by:
1)Using a highlight shade on the central portion of the upper lid.
2)Use a medium shadow up to the brow bone from the inner corner outward, finishing in inward slant.
3)With a darker shade, shade the edge of the upper lid and the outer crease.
4)Apply liner to focus on the center and inward corner of the eye - this gives the illusion of drawing the eye closer together.

prominent or convex eye shapes, makeup can help reduce the appearance if bulging, or bugging out. To make the eye appear as if it is receding a bit more into the face, use a dark shade of eye shadow near the lash line and base of the lid. Use a slightly lighter shade for the crease, and blend outward towards the brow bone.

The opposite of prominent eyes, deep-set eyes recede back into the sockets. Ideas to bring them out with makeup:
1)Lighten the inner corner and entire lid with shadow.
2Use a medium shadow above the crease and gently apply it across the bottom of the brow bone.
3)Use a darker contour shade only at the outer crease and dip slightly outward.
4)Keep liner, especially on the upper lid, thin

Close-set eyes together can be brought out by using a light shade on the inner corner and most of the lid and a medium shade from the middle of the brow bone and sweeping outward. The darker contour color should outer corner and blend up and out toward the edge of the brow line.

drooping eyes that slope downward can be seen at any age, this is sometimes the look of mature eyes of other shapes as well. To make eyes appear livelier:
1)Apply a light shade in an oval shape on the lid and inner corner.
2)Follow with a medium shade that stops slightly before the edge of the brow.
3)Finish with a dense patch of shadow in and slightly above the outer crease that extends toward the brow.
4)Use liner in lower lash line, but keep the line light, and stop before the outer corner.

3)Eye color:

black

brown

blue

green

bridal updoes and hairstyles

2010-04-30T07:08:00.000-07:00

Nowadays most of brides worry about their hairstyles and updoes at the wedding party.Bridal hairstyles have to be the best looking hairstyles at a wedding because she is the focus of attention. An updo is a simple and elegant way to do your hair for your wedding day.
As a bride-to-be, you probably understand the importance of your wedding hairstyle. Many brides begin planning this months in advance to be sure they look their best on the big day. Updos are one of the most popular wedding hairstyles and for good reason – they are elegant, charming and work well with most wedding themes.

I can suggest some of updoes and hairstyles that suit for you.

1)Round - your face is as wide as it is long, however it may vary slightly.Your hair will look great taken away from your face, in a gentle updo, or perhaps pulled back with some grips. Your face shape can greatly accentuated with longer hair styles. You could try to match the colour of your dress in a cute hair band that will look simple, cute and yet formal.

2)Square - Your face is as wide as it is long, with your jaw line and temple line of similar width Curls will look great on your face, adding a softer edge. Try to avoid styles that are too straight, so add some curl into your hair by using some curling tongs or rollers. Or try out a curved straight look, by gently turning your straighteners inwards by a very small amount, this creates a very Jennifer Aniston look.

3)Oval - Similar length across each area of your face, with a rounded hairline on your forehead.Most hairstyles look good on an oval face shape, and pulling your hair back from your face looks great. Try to avoid a heavy fringe as this will effectively 'hide' your face, instead try a soft side fringe.

4)Heart shape faces - the length from temple to temple is larger than the distance of you jaw line. Your best formal hairstyle is one with a side parting, with a small side fringe. To gently curl your hair, and blow dry it so that it has some volume would be great to soften the lines of your face, and show off its romantic side.

best hairstyle for long/rectangular faces

2010-04-30T06:43:00.000-07:00

Now explain about long faces:

A long face shape is longer than it is wide, a rectangular is the same just with a more angular appearance.

If your face is long and slender, with your forehead and below cheeks about the same width, hairstyles that balance out the length of your face work best for you. These include short to medium lengths with fullness at the sides and soft wispy bangs. This will shorten the length and add width to your face. Layered styles work well and add softness to the straight lines of your face.

Avoid too much length, it will only make your face look longer. Too much height will also lengthen your face.

best hairstyle for oval faces

2010-04-30T06:36:00.000-07:00

Now explain about oval faces:

An oval face has a length that is equal to one and a half times width.

You're lucky - this is the kind of face shape that suits just about any hairstyle. Both long and short hair cuts look great on you, as your face shape is well balanced. The chin and forehead of an oval face shape are in even proportion.

Avoid covering up your perfect face shape with heavy bangs or wearing your hair on your face. You'll lose your face shape and it may add weight to your face.

best hairstyle for heart shape face

2010-04-30T06:24:00.000-07:00

Now explain about heart shape faces:

A heart shape face has a narrow jaw and is wider at the

forehead and/or cheekbones.

The heart shaped face is widest at the temples and narrowest at the chin, which can appear pointy. Short hair and chin length hair often looks great on this face shape, as the fullness can even out the jaw and chin lines. Chin length bobs, short shags, swept forward layers and wispy bangs all work well.

Avoid full styles that emphasise the upper face without balancing out your narrow chin. Too much height at the crown and tapered necklines will make you look top heavy.

best hairstyle for square face

2010-04-30T05:14:00.000-07:00

Now explain about square face:

A square face is as wide as it is long but with more of an angular appearance than a round face.

If your face is square, with a strong, square jaw line and often an equally square hairline, the right hairstyles for you are ones that soften the square look of your face. Short to medium length hair cuts, with soft wispy bangs and a wave or curl will compliment and balance out your straight face shape. If you hair is straight, maybe consider a body wave. Side parts and fullness/height at the crown can add length to your square face shape.

Avoid straight styles - long straight hair, blunt bangs, straight bobs and center parts, as they will emphasise your square jawline.

best hairstyle for round face

2010-04-30T04:07:00.000-07:00

Today I'm going to explain the most suitable hairstyle according to your face shape.There are 5 basic face shapes. These include;

1. Round
2. Square
3. Heart Shape
4. Oval
5. Long/Rectangular

At first explain about round faces:

A round face is as wide as it is long with soft, round edges

Hairstyles with fullness and height at the crown will give the impression of a narrower face. Try a cut with layers while keeping the sides close to your face to make your face appear longer. Round faces suit either short hairstyles swept back from your forehead, or hairstyles that are longer than chin length. Wispy fringes and side parts are also good.

Avoid chin length hair, center parts, fullness at the sides of ears, straight "chopped bangs - these wll all emphasise the shape of your face.
