Choosing a new haircut can be exciting—but also a little overwhelming. What looks great in a photo might not work the same way on your features. That’s where face shape comes in. At Beaudee Salon, our stylists use your face shape, hair texture, and lifestyle to guide your haircut choices.
This guide will help you understand which flattering haircuts for face shape work best—and why a professional consultation is key to finding the perfect fit.
Why Face Shape Matters
Your face shape plays a major role in how different cuts and styles frame your features. The goal isn’t to “fix” anything—it’s to create balance, highlight what you love, and support your natural structure.
