The Best Men's Haircut for Your Face Shape

The right cut balances your features. Here's a quick guide — though a good barber tailors it to you in the chair.

Round face

Add height and angles: a high or mid fade with length and texture on top — a pompadour, quiff, or textured crop — lengthens a round face.

Square face

Lean into the strong jaw: most fades and tapers work; a classic comb-over or a buzz with a line-up looks sharp.

Oval face

The most versatile — almost anything works. Avoid heavy fringe that fully covers the forehead.

Long or oblong face

Keep height down and add sides: a low fade or taper with some length on the sides balances a longer face; a textured crop with fringe works well.
