Many men overlook their face shape when thinking about a haircut. Including me. It is never something I consider whenever I go to the hairdressers but it does effect how you will look with certain hair cuts. There are loads of websites out there that give advice on what hairstyles suit certain face shapes.

Men’s face shapes include; diamond, round, square, heart, oblong, oval and triangle. CoolMensHair goes through the different styles that suit each face shape. I have come to the conclusion that I have an oval face; I even conferred with my friend Stef who says the same. Apparently having an oval face is quite lucky because it is a well balanced shape which usually can pull off any length hair. However, having too much of a fringe can make the face look heavy and throw off the balance. Jude Law also has an oval face (which explains the photo, thanks to umfi1 off of Flickr)
