1. Identify Your Face Shape

Determining Your Face Shape

Selecting a haircut that complements your face shape plays a significant role in accentuating your natural beauty. To determine your face shape, examine your facial features and proportions, considering the width of your forehead, cheekbones, and jawline.

Haircuts for Different Face Shapes

Timeless Salon's expert stylists can suggest suitable haircuts for each face shape:

1. Oval: With balanced proportions, oval-shaped faces can pull off various styles, from pixie cuts to long, flowing layers. Avoid heavy bangs, as they may make the face appear shorter.
2. Round: Aim to create length and width for round faces by opting for long layers or angular bobs. Steer clear of one-length cuts or chin-length styles, which may accentuate the roundness.
3. Square: Soften the angular jawline of square faces with long layers, face-framing pieces, or waves. Avoid blunt cuts, which may further emphasize the square shape.
4. Heart: Balance a heart-shaped face by adding volume at the jawline through long layers, chin-length bobs, or side-swept bangs. Avoid heavy, straight bangs.
5. Long: Create width and reduce elongation in long faces with chin-length bobs, long layers, or wispy bangs. Steer clear of long, one-length styles.

2. Haircut Trends and Timeless Styles

On-trend Haircuts

Staying up-to-date with the latest haircut trends, Timeless Salon's stylists offer an array of fashionable styles for you to choose from:

1. Curtain Bangs: These versatile, fringe bangs frame the face and blend seamlessly with the rest of the hair, suiting various face shapes and hair textures.
2. Textured Bob: A modern twist on the classic bob, the textured bob adds movement and dimension to your hair, creating a stylish, carefree look.
3. Shag: The shag haircut, characterized by its choppy layers, is perfect for those seeking a low-maintenance style that offers a chic, bohemian vibe.

Classic Haircuts

For those who prefer a more timeless look, Timeless Salon's stylists also excel in crafting enduring styles:

1. Long Layers: Universally flattering, long layers add movement and shape without sacrificing length, complementing various hair textures and face shapes.
2. Pixie Cut: Bold and elegant, the pixie cut highlights facial features and works exceptionally well on oval, square, and heart-shaped faces.
3. Bob: The classic bob is a sophisticated style that can be adapted to suit many face shapes and hair types, from sleek and sharp to soft and wavy.

3. Expert Tips on Maintaining Your Haircut

Schedule Regular Trims

To keep your haircut looking its best, Timeless Salon's stylists recommend scheduling regular trims every 6-8 weeks for short hairstyles or every 10-12 weeks for longer styles to prevent split ends and maintain shape.

Invest in Quality Products

Using salon-quality shampoo, conditioner, and styling products tailored to your hair type will help retain the integrity and longevity of your haircut.

Protect Your Hair

Shield your hair from heat damage by using a heat protectant before styling with hot tools and minimize exposure to the sun, which can cause color fading and weaken the hair.

4. Styling Your New Look

Choose the Right Tools

Invest in high-quality styling tools that cater to your specific hair types, such as ceramic or titanium flat irons or a high-quality hairbrush, to style your locks safely and effectively.

Embrace Texture and Volume

Whether you have a trendy shag or a timeless bob, Timeless Salon's stylists recommend introducing texture and volume to your hair using volumizing mousse, texturizing sprays, or sea salt sprays for added dimension.

Maintain Your Style

Extend your style using dry shampoo to absorb excess oil and refresh your hair without washing, and set your tresses in place using hairspray or a strong-hold finishing product.
