Heart face shapes need to add some length to their shape and to create width around narrow chins.

The right hairstyle for your heart face shape.
“Any textured chin-length hairstyles will suit best. If
bangs are wanted make sure that they are side swept not straight
across...”
This
is a great short hairstyle that really suits our models heart face
shape. The height achieved on top adds needed length that balances out
what is known as a short and mostly wide face shape. The absence of
bangs also gives the illusion of more face and more height. It's simple
but it is what is needed.
Definitely
the wrong hairstyle for heart face shapes. This cut positions hair
where it just isn't needed. The heavy bangs make our models face
appear shorter and wider than it already is. Next, the long wispy sides
promote width, which is once again the opposite of what heart face
shapes require for balance. This shape in any texture will not work and
therefore must be avoided.
This
beauty has everything that's needed to make it the perfect hairstyle
for a heart face shape. The top area has long heavy bangs swept to the
side that shows off the forehead. This creates needed vertical
length. The sides and back are layered and then kicked out through
styling to compensate for the narrow chin that are customary with
heart faces. A similar shape in other textures will work just as well.
This
look is too square and horizontally short to suit our models heart
face shape. The solid across bangs only exaggerate the box like shape
that makes up this hairstyle. The bangs need removing and the sides
layering for any suitability. This is a good example of what not to try
if you have a heart face shape.
This
soft forward falling hairstyle has all of the right attributes for
heart face shapes. The middle part helps divide the face into two long
shapes which creates the illusion of vertical length. The layers
through the sides frame the chin area and below, adding hair where
it's needed. Waves and curls in the same shape will work very well and
actually appear softer.
This
wavy look shows what not to try if you have a heart face shape.
Firstly, the heavy bangs shorten the length of the face making it look
wider than it already is. Secondly, the width achieved through the
layers and waves once again adds width to the entire look. The result is
a short, wide, fat, squashed look. Now you know what to avoid!

Hairstyles to Try
- Any textured chin-length hairstyles will suit best.
- If bangs are wanted make sure that they are side-swept bangs not straight across as blunt cut bangs will only make your face shape shorter and wider.
- Shoulder length cuts with wispy layers that kick out will also work very well.
- Height on top will work but only if they belong to shoulder length or longer hairstyles.
Hairstyles to Avoid
- Short, full hairstyles like slicked back looks that emphasize your upper face.
- Short styles with heavy straight across bangs that create an upside down triangular shape.
