oval face shape

               Above you will note the diagram that analyses the hallmarks of an Oval face shape. The face width gradually reduces from the forehead with a sloping jawline. With its even proportions, features are usually visible but not angular.

With balanced characteristics, this shape has been considered the so-called “ideal” face shape. Its neutral composition and lack of dominant features allow for a great versatility in styling from hairstyles to eye-wear.

                    Being a well-proportioned structure, an oval face has the rare privilege to be free in experimenting a variety of styles. Nevertheless, a classic short back and sides with a little length on top is a foolproof solution. Whilst texture and volume on top sharpen the shape, discretion is advised with fringes, which run the risk of softening the features and making the face appear rounder.

DO:

• Wear hair off forehead to create volume and angles on top

DON’T:

• Avoid forward fringes

Best Oval Face Shape Beard Styles

Best Oval Face Shape Moustache Styles

Oval face shapes can experiment with a variety of moustache styles but care should be taken that the moustache isn’t too long. Large, bushy moustaches that curl over the lip will reduce face height and make it appear round. Sharpened edges and angular finishes will overcome this and retain structure.

Best Glasses For Oval Face Shapes

As oval face shapes as the so-called “ideal”, they can be much easier to style. However, to ensure that your proportions stay well-balanced, there are certain steps to take. For instance, it would be a shame to lose harmony due to glasses that don’t work.

Indeed, oval face shapes have chameleon-like properties and their subtle features can be curbed or emphasised according to taste. Therefore, even more eccentric styles tend to work well. That said, try not to go for anything that well throw your proportions off entirely.

            Balanced and classic styles are always safe choices. The most ideal options tend to be more angular styles as they will bring your features out. If you opt for anything too round, it may soften them or give your face a rounded appearance.

            Finally, ensure that your glasses fit. Even if you’re oversizing, try not to go for anything that will dwarf your face and make it appear too small or round.
