For a specific face type
The main reason why girls and women resort to contouring hair is that they tend to visually emphasize or change the shape of their face. Of course, the coloring technique used by the stylist depends heavily on the type of client's skull. In contouring there are not only strict rules that would suit every woman. In practice, the master should be guided by the advice of professional makeup artists, their own experience and observations.
- Round face. In this case, the face needs to be visually stretched. To do this, it is necessary, first of all, to adjust the length of the hair. They should be below the shoulders. With the help of paint light shades are applied to the space above the forehead on the growth of hair, and then on the tips. Thus, the shadows from the strands will visually narrow the broad face. The front curls are recommended to be laid in small waves - they should smoothly frame the face.
- Square. Sharp facial features can be hidden by lightening strands next to problem areas: the chin and temples. When laying it is worth remembering that the wide cheekbones should be hidden under the curvaceous curls, and the roots must necessarily have a volume. And if the hair is long enough, you should also highlight the tips.
- Oblong. In this case, the professionals recommend smoothly darken the hair at the roots and the tips, while leaving the light strands to frame the face. Laying should not be too lush.
- Triangular. Haircut should be easy and exclude abrupt transitions. You can hide a large forehead compared to the lower part of the face with the help of 50% by 50%: half of the hair is darkened from above, and then a smooth transition to light flowing tips is made. During the laying it is necessary to strive to give volume to the tips with the help of large waves.
- Oval. Girls with this type of face are very lucky, as it is considered the standard of beauty. Women have to correct it only because of their own whims. Depending on the desired effect and individual traits, an experienced master will easily select the most advantageous technique. Also, clients with an oval face at any time can diversify their image with the help of an ombre or balalezha, without worrying that the result can be frustrating.
