There was a time when we were made to believe that blunt bob plus blunt bangs are only reserved to a selected few…face shapes, that is. It’s time to kill that misconception! You can sport this cut regardless of your face shape! For round and square, the edges should be fall below the chin so as not to accentuate the width. For heart and oblong, the length should end within the level of the jawline or just a little above it. Make the hairstyle work for you not the other way around! You are the boss, y’know?

A fine textured hair’s best friend is a layered cut. It adds volume and is very flattering especially if you know where to start the layers. If you’re planning to have blunt bangs, the layering should start just below the bangs. It frames the face perfectly and the longer sides will look good when your hair is gathered into a ponytail.

Bangs that are cut straight across are feared by women who possess round and square faces because they add more width. That’s not always the case as seen here on Nicole Anderson. The fringe should not be too heavy and the sides should be longer and gradually blend with the layers framing her face. Do a side part at the crown for some volume. This will make the face look a little elongated.
