The weather seems to be getting hotter and hotter these days. Even as we sit here in the office, we’re tempted to cut our hair and escape the heat.
If you’re thinking of lopping it all off to create a bob, however, you may way to think again. A common bob could have the unintended side effect of making your face appear even rounder.
But what kind of short hairstyle can we choose to make our faces appear slimmer? Here are five options!
Ruffle perm
Because the ruffle perm comprises parallel irregular curls, you won’t have to worry about your hairstyle’s symmetry.
Not only is it easier to maintain because you only need to give it a quick blow dry, but it also has a chic and retro vibe to it.
Tassel cut
We really like the tassel cut because it looks elegant and grown-up, yet refreshing to us. It frames the cheeks and chin perfectly, making the face appear smaller.
Furthermore, this is another hairstyle that requires little maintenance, as you only need to straighten and smooth it out.
Bonnie perm
A bonnie perm involves trimming the lower ends of the hair to create volume that looks light, fluffy, and totally adorable.
If you have high cheekbones, swooping bangs can lengthen the face’s proportion and make it appear thinner.
Wind cut
Does this look familiar to you? The wind cut is similar to the layered cut, but there are fewer layers involved. This delicate yet playful hairstyle is enhanced by the small flick at the end.
What’s great is that if you change your mind about keeping your hair short, it won’t look awkward as it grows out gradually.
Layered perm
You’ll love how light and short this hairstyle is, making it boyish yet adorable. The layered perm at the back of the head draws attention to the neck, making the face appear slimmer.
For a more consistent overall shape, add curls to your bangs. It’ll look great skimming your cheeks too.
