Wig Outlets Face Shape Guide
Face shape is an important factor when selecting a wig. Any hairstyle is going to compliment and highlight different areas of your face. A "bad" haircut is usually due to someone selecting a style that is not complementary to their natural face shape.
How to determine your face shape:
If you can't determine which shape closely matches your face, try standing in front of a mirror with your hair pulled back. Take a fine eyebrow pencil or eyeliner and use it to trace the outline of your face. |
