In order to complement the shape of your face with a hairdo, you need to think about opposites. A square face, for instance, pairs well with a soft, romantic updo with a few face-framing tresses, per All Things Hair. The softness of the style should take the edge off of the angular features. A heart-shaped face would also work well with framing bangs, which draw attention down to the eyes, via Live About.

A clean, tight updo, such as a high bun, would complement an oblong face well. The sleek style brings attention to the width of the face, which helps balance out the longer shape. Round faces are perfect for thick-cut bangs or some sort of fringe, which create angles to balance out soft features, as noted by Total Beauty. Oval faces seem to pair well with most updo styles, according to Styles 101.

But if you are still struggling to determine the best updo for your face shape, take a breath and let it go. There are no rules. Wear your hair however you like, and your confidence will follow.
