Not only makeup can conceal certain facial features. A matching hairstyle can also work wonders. For example, the classic trick for narrow face is to cut a long fringe and form big waves. Medium-length haircuts are especially ideal for this purpose: the lob (long bob), which reaches straight to the shoulders, is perfect. Waves also achieve an optical illusion and draw attention to the cheekbones and mouth.

Fringed, slightly stepped cuts are ideal for drawing attention away from the center of the face (nose and cheeks). A long fringe falling on the eyebrows can achieve similar effect and make the face look wider.

A wolf cut is ideal for spreading a narrow face and concealing a big nose. The bangs visually take away several inches of the forehead and the waves loosen up the facial features.

Otherwise, the styling is very simple.

Shoulder-length hairstyles with side parting and curtain bangs

The lob that comes with the shoulder line quickly conjures up more fullness. Side parting also looks advantageous.

By the way, shoulder-length straight hair is best suited for gray blending. The attractive hair color automatically attracts attention and distracts from the nose.

Otherwise, you should go for inconspicuous, thin frames.
