Rectangle Face

Use side width, fringe and layered movement as references if you want to interrupt a longer vertical line; sharp, long looks are equally valid by choice.

What defines a rectangle face?

A rectangle face is noticeably longer than it is wide, with a straight forehead, flat sides and a squared-off jaw. The forehead, cheeks and jaw are close in width, and the length is the defining trait.

Works to explore

Curtain bangs, waves, shag layers and side fullness are useful ideas when you want more horizontal movement in the silhouette.

Be careful with

Long, straight, one-length hair with a centre part creates a strong vertical line. Keep it if that clean, elongated effect is what you want.

Ask your stylist

What fringe or side layers can work with my natural part, hair density and time available for heat styling?
