Choosing to take the plunge and go for bangs is a tough decision. We can now make the decision of whether to go for bold new bangs easily with tips from famed Antonio Prieto Stylist. He explains: “It’s all about Face Shape”.
So we’ve asked stylists from Antonio Prieto Salon to help us choose stylish fringe for our face shape:
Oblong:

The goal here is to create width through the side of the face, since this face shape is long and narrow -a longer side-swept bang is perfect
. But be careful, the length of the bang is the most important factor. Make sure the bangs fall on or near, the cheekbone.

Triangle/Oval:
Bangs are great idea for this face shape because of its narrow forehead and fuller jaw line. Bangs would create width through the forehead.

Round:
Unfortunately for those with a round face , bangs will not work for this shape.Bangs will only draw more attention to the fullness of this face. The eye will see less face which translates to a shorter, fuller and wider looking face.

Diamond/Square:
Both these face shapes are resumed to an angular oval. A short side-swept bang works the best with these face shapes to soften the angular areas.

Heart:
The chin is narrrow and the forehead is already wide in this shape.But as long as the section of heir being cut into bangs is kept narrow and does not extend past the outside of the eye, bangs can be beautifully complement someone with a heart-shaped face.
