It is very important that you determine your face shape before buying a wig. Different face shape requires different hair extensions.

When it comes to selecting the right style of wig, it could make you frustrated and confused for you may not know how to select it. However, finding the right style is not a science or art. You just need to consider many factors for making your selection. The best one would be the hairpiece that would accentuate your facial features and make you look gorgeous while helping to hide all the imperfect features on your face.

Different styles of hairpieces suit different facial shapes. If a style suits a round shape face it is not obvious that a rectangular face shape individual would look great in that same style. So, one main thing that would help you determine the style of your hair extension is your facial shape.

What kind of face shape do you have? Is it a heart shape, oval shape, round shape, triangular shape, square shape or oblong shape? Different face shape requires different hair extensions. Here in this article we have discussed about the three most popular face shapes ...
... and what style of hairpiece would suit that shape the best.

If you have heart shape face with wide brows, high up cheekbones and narrow chin, what is the style of wig that you should shop for. Your main goal would be to minimize the width of your forehead and produce a fuller and wider jaw effect. Wear a side parting with soft 3-quarter bangs brushed over a side for balancing the width of the forehead. The length can be of medium length size to mid-neck. Fullness at bottom with hair curled and layered forward onto the cheek would make your chin look wide. Loose or curl waves from ears down would add fullness and width to the chin.

What if you have an oval face? You can choose to buy a Dü that has a side or center parting with hair up to the shoulders. Go for this style only of you prefer long style hairpieces. If you like short hair you can choose to buy the short-layered styles that have curls.

And round face shape? When choosing a wig for this shape, your main goal would be make your face shape appear thin. Now how can you do it? Hair below chin line must be worn with face-lengthening center part and for the hair that is above the chin line, wear off-center one for minimizing the roundness. The styles that focus on brushing hair away from face by building extra crown height for narrowing the round shape of the face can be your choice. The bangs have tendency of shortening the face. So you can even wear tousled, curly side bangs. Never wear bangs that fall straight. Wear long style ones that are closer to face for giving length.

Are you facing female hair loss problems or is it just for fashion and style that you are planning to buy a Dü? Whatever be the reason, always determine your face shape and then select the style of your hair extension.
