![]() And feel free to ditch the beard, says Ruffians creative director Denis Robinson. “Too much heaviness on the forehead softens features and increases roundness of the face,” says celebrity hairstylist Jamie Stevens. ![]() You’ll also want to avoid a forward fringe. “The most suitable style is a classic short back and sides and slightly longer on the top, with a side-swept parting.” “The trick with an oval face shape is to wear your hair off the forehead to create some volume and angles on top,” says Aveda master barber Stelios Nicolaou. That said, there are a couple of minor caveats to ensure you optimize your ovalness. ![]() Symmetrical and well-proportioned, an oval face shape does pretty much any hairstyle justice, so-you lucky boy-the choice is very much yours. Seen as the genetic jackpot for women, an oval face shape may not be the most alpha of face shapes for men, but it’s a good canvas for experimentation when it comes to men’s haircuts. “A full beard only elongates the face, so instead try facial hair that ranges in length from stubble to a short beard to fill out any gaps.” Finally, never pair with a Duck Dynasty beard, says Robinson. Taking that advice, try a style that lets the hair fall to the sides and/or across the forehead to add width and ensure your face doesn’t appear narrower than it is. “Try a well-proportioned style that doesn’t take the sides too short or leave too much length on top.” “Because a rectangular face looks longer, it’s important to avoid taking the sides too short if keeping length on the top, as this would only accentuate the length of the face,” explains Nicolaou. Also considered a rectangular face shape or an oblong face shape, long faces fall somewhere between an oval and a square, but require a subtly tweaked hairstyle to ensure the face doesn’t appear even longer than it is.
