Most women keep the same hairstyle and hair color for at least 70 percent of their lives – BORING HUH? This is because we are afraid of experimenting and hair matters once done are not easily reversed. You all must be familiar with the term contouring, thanks to beauticians. It creates such an illusion that the positive beauty aspects of the face are enhanced hiding the not-so-good ones. We looked up hair contouring on the internet and found some amazing coloring hacks for each face type. So let’s share them with you people.
It involves using dark, low and bright highlights along with the application of different hues to specific hair strands to create an illusion of the wanted face cut.
Round Face
For round faces, as they have a defined structure, darker highlights are applied to the ends of the hair and to the hair lines underneath the ears. This helps to give the face a very nice focus. As for lighter highlights, they are applied to the hairline on the forehead starting from above one ear to the other. This helps make your skin tone more prominent and also creates an elongated illusion for a round face.
Square Face
As for square faces, as they have more space for feature prominence, both light and dark tones are applied to the hairline and the hair surrounding the jawlines and ends of the face adding more of appropriate shape and depth to the face.
Oval Face
Oval faces are considered the most suitable for any hairstyle, and the same goes for hair contouring. Add a little bit of color to any strand of your choice in order to get a more smoother texture and to add some shine.
Oblong Face
I especially searched for this one because I have an oblong face. The face looks chubby if you have the oblong type so the main objective of hair contouring for this type is creating a slim illusion. For this, the hair roots are toned to create an angular illusion.
As for the people who have a printed chin, the face is given a slightly oblong touch by soft highlights around the jawline and the ears, thus blending in the strong cuts of the bottom of the face.
