Face-Framing Haircuts Are the Most Flattering for Any Face Shape

As the title suggests, this cut has a lot to live up to. In the end, what awards it the "most flattering" award is the sheer and unbridled versatility. No matter your face shape, hair length, or hair texture, face-framing works. For any popular haircut, this technique can be added onto your length of choice to make it at least 10 times more flattering. (If that's not salon sorcery, we don't know what is.)

We think the curtain bangs trend was onto something, but we'd venture to say that short curtain bangs aren't for everyone. Face-framing layers, though, everyone can enjoy.

Face-framing pieces of hair are what make the difference between a fine hairstyle and your best hairstyle yet. We went straight to the experts on this trend to share their most popular face-framing cuts. Customize these low-maintenance layers just how you like them and pair them with your signature cut.
