We are sure you will find some inspiration and the best hairstyle for square face for you in our gallery of hairstyles for square faces.
Best Hairstyles for Square Face Shapes
1. Side Bangs
Bangs can be a tricky style to wear, but we love how they create depth and dimension to your square face. A side bang style allows you to brush your hair to the side, or even clip it to the side when you want to wear them off your face.
2. Short Crop
Have you always wanted to cut your hair short? Why not try a shaggy crop? The choppy texture helps balance out your strong jawline. With this style, it’s best to visit you’re hairdresser every month for a trim to maintain the shape and bounce of your style.
3. Long Layers with Bangs
We like square face hairstyles that involve lots 0f layers. Opting for long graduating layers that turn inward will create the illusion of a narrower face. Try long and full textured bangs to complement a square face. If you have hair prone to frizz or flyaways, try TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Shine Serum to smooth out and add shine your hair.
4. The Lob
A long bob, also known as “the lob,” helps hide the width of cheekbones and forehead and helps downplay harsh angles. No matter the length of your lob, always go with layers to help offset stronger jawlines.
5. Loose Waves
Diffuse the corners of your jawline with head-turning wavy hair. Waves soften the face as they create a fun and trendy style that you can wear to the beach or to the latest music festival. Create natural beachy-looking hair by using Bed Head by TIGI Queen Beach Salt Infused Texture Spray to create bouncy and full-bodied waves.
6. Off-Center Part
Play with different kinds of styles with an off-center part to proportion the face. Sometimes mixing up your part is the easiest way to compliment your look and change it up. Plus, you can look like you underwent a major style change with the simplest (and reversible) change!
7. Angled Bob
Like the lob, the angled bob is a stunning look that will downplay the width of the cheekbones. An angled cut with long pieces in front that gradually get shorter toward the back is a great style that elongates the face rather than widening it.
8. Tapered Cut
One of the easiest looks to try this summer is the tapered cut. Not only will it give your face the illusion of being longer, this look makes it so easy to get ready and go.
9. The Shag
Having a square face doesn’t make you completely exempt from all hairstyles including popular hair trends like the shag. In fact, you can actually try your hand at any hairstyle but tweak it to suit your face shape. Use this shag hairstyle to your benefit and play with texture. Add texture with waves or curls to soften up your face frame and finish your style with TRESemmé Compressed Micro Mist Hairspray Texture Hold Level 1.
10. The Half-Up Hairstyle
This is yet another trendy hairstyle that works well on square face shapes. Gather the top section of your hair into a high ponytail and leave the back section out. If you’re wearing this look to give your jawline a softer appearance, pull your hair to the front of your shoulders to take any attention away from your jaw area.
