Choosing the Right Hair Part for Your Face ShapeUpdated 16 hours ago
How to Choose the Right Parting for Your Face Shape
If you’ve ever tried a new hairstyle and something just felt… off—it might not be the hair, but the parting. One of the best-kept secrets in beauty is that choosing a hair part that flatters your face shape can make extensions or wigs look ten times more natural.
Why Face Shape Matters for Hair Extensions
Your part plays a powerful role in framing your features. When placed correctly, it can:
- Balance your facial proportions
- Enhance your bone structure
- Soften strong jawlines or cheekbones
- Draw attention to your eyes or lips
Whether you’re trying a sew-in, clip-ins, or your first Fit ‘N’ Go™ Wig, the parting you choose can either elevate or overwhelm your look.
How’s to Find Your Face Shape
The most common face shapes are:
- Round: Full cheeks, soft jawline
- Oval: Balanced length and width
- Square: Strong jaw, broad forehead
- Heart: Wider forehead, narrow chin
- Diamond: High cheekbones, narrow forehead/chin
- Oblong: Long face, minimal curves
