Square cut: which one to choose?

GLAMOROUS, CHIC, TRENDY, ELEGANT... THE SQUARE CUT IS TIMELESS AND SEDUCES ALL WOMEN! PLUNGING, UNSTRUCTURED, SMOOTH, WAVY OR WAVY, FOR WHOM AND FOR WHAT HAIR... WE TELL YOU EVERYTHING ABOUT THE SQUARE.

Each season, long hair and short hair compete for our favors ... Unbeatable, the square cut is necessarily a very good choice! Trendy, sometimes ultra-feminine, sometimes more rock and resolutely modern, this is the favorite cut of short hair lovers! The proof? The stars themselves also regularly succumb to the temptation of the scissor kick...

What square cut is trendy?

It is customary to say that a woman who cuts her hair is a woman who is about to change her life. It is not necessary to reach these extremes to be tempted by a square cut! For Arnaud, a hairdresser at Massato, a square haircut "is ultra feminine because it clears and illuminates the face to better highlight it". On the trend side, each season highlights new short haircuts while other squares cross the seasons without taking a crease! In the first category? The wolf cut, butterfly haircut which are variations of the mullet cut in a feminine square cut, or even the liquid bob which gives pride of place to extreme shine... And what about the timeless? The wise square, the long square cut - or lob cut -, the fuzzy square wob.

What square cut according to the shape of her face?

To find the ideal square, it is not enough to rely on photos of celebrities! It is necessary to take into account essential parameters such as the shape of his face, nature, and the texture of his hair ... which play a major role in the rendering. Here's how to find the right square cut according to your morphology:

 What square cut if you have a round face? A fuzzy, bohemian square that will soften the curves of the face and hide the plump cheeks. The other option, almost the opposite but having the same rendering? A plunging square that will bring structure to the face and give the illusion that the cheeks are less imposing, even sunken!

 What square cut if you have a square face? Here again, the challenge will be to soften the features and, the plunging square turns out to be a tempting option. Another option is the fuzzy, bohemian square with an undulating blow-dry that brings softness to the features. Above all, we avoid the short square, which stops above the jawline and which will tend to accentuate the "strong" aspect of the lower face.

 What square cut if you have an oval face? It's the ultimate in-face shape. For what? Quite simply because everything suits him! The hacked bob, the retro squares, and even the bowl cut are yours (after all, if anyone can dare it, it's him!)

 What square cut if you have a triangle-shaped face? The challenge is to harmonize the volumes of the face. If the jaw is narrower than the forehead, opt for a square cut that will soften the features like a bohemian, blurry square, or a tapered square, accompanied by a light fringe that will lighten the volume at the level of the forehead. If the jaw is wider than the forehead, we allow ourselves a more imposing square, and above all, we ensure that it reaches at least the level of the jaw, the perfect choice? The long square!

 What square cut if you have an elongated face? The challenge will be to break this elongated effect. The right options? The long square, the fuzzy square, or even the tapered squares will give texture and movement... We don't hesitate to also opt for a curtain fringe or a long fringe which will harmonize the result! Above all, we avoid the wise square with a very clear line in the center which will accentuate the effect of length.

Not to neglect? The fringe can make all the difference! We also help you find the ideal combination to be on top with a square with bangs!

How do I know if the square will suit me well?

Do you have questions before cutting everything? It's normal! The Schwarzkopf brand has a tip to help us decide, here's how:

• measure the distance between the chin and the earlobe; to do this place a pencil horizontally, under the chin, and place a ruler on it, just under the ear, then take the measurement.
• If the distance obtained is less than 5.5 cm, the square is made for you and there is no longer any reason to hesitate!
• If the measurement is more than 5.5 cm, think twice before cutting! Indeed, long haircuts should be more flattering... even the long bob, also called a lob cut (for long bob ) can be the perfect compromise!

What square cut to rejuvenate?

A bob cut to give a youthful cut? The option is worth considering. Indeed there are good options when looking to rejuvenate by cheating a little with your hair ... and it is the bob cuts that will bring softness to the features. This plays out in particular on the brushing side with the blurred square and the wavy square ... but also on the side of the scissor cut! The degraded, tapered square and the long square are the softest options and could help you save a few years (at least in appearance, and it's always taken, right?!).
