Avoid
Short, full styles that emphasize upper face. Height at the crown. Severe, slicked back looks. If you are a dramatic heart shape, the short full styles with tapered necklines which emphasize the upper face will make you look top heavy. Too much height at the crown will give the appearance of a longer and narrower chin. Just remember if you have a dramatic heart shape face, you have great cheekbones to emphasize! Avoid top-heavy cuts, and no
one will be able to resist your sweetheart appeal. Avoid Short, blunt-cut bangs and harsh, choppy layers. Choose a style that will create volume around the bottom of your face. But whatever your hair type, don't have your hair too long. Four inches below your shoulders is ample.
Ask your hairdresser to cut them round so that they lightly fall on to your face then use a serum to smooth over and keep them frizz-free.
If you have Curly Hair Avoid: shampooing everyday, you'll find your curls look best the less you shampoo, instead, use a heavy conditioner in the shower (curly hair tends to be dry hair).
• Thick, long hair? Ask for soft layers to soften your chin area - keep the layers cut as close to your jaw line as possible so that they can fall on to your face.
Long, curly locks will look fantastic on a heart-shaped face if you keep them soft and loose.
