How to choose
When choosing a haircut with shaved temples, you need to pay special attention to the oval of the face:
- A universal option is the oval shape, since it suits any hairstyle. There is an opportunity to safely experiment, since each time the face will look different, but always excellent.
- Representatives of the fairer sex with a rectangular oval face are best suited for long curls. If you want to make them shorter, you should keep your bangs long. Its purpose is to hide prominent cheekbones and give smoothness and softness to facial features.
- If you have a round face, then you should prefer haircuts with strands of different lengths. It is best to make them shorter on the front and sides. Bangs - elongated oblique solutions look great.
- Long curls at the back and bangs can soften the clear features of a square face. It should be made oblique and styled on one side.
- For short haircuts in the temple area, you can keep a short crew cut or shave off the curls altogether. However, it should be borne in mind that this will give the image impudence and a certain touch of aggressiveness.
