Where a preview helps
- Testing fringe around a wider forehead
- Comparing cheekbone and chin-length framing
- Exploring fullness around the lower face
Hairstyle ideas by face shape
A heart-shaped face is often described as wider through the forehead or cheekbones with a narrower chin. Hairstyle ideas can either emphasize that taper or add visual fullness lower around the face.
ReferenceOptionsBefore the appointment
Chin-length bobs, side fringe, curtain bangs, shoulder-length waves, and textured pixies each place attention differently. Preview the specific proportions rather than relying on the style name.
What to tell your stylist or barber
Discuss hairline growth, the shortest face-framing point, and where you want the silhouette to hold the most volume.
Photo setup
Use a straight-on photo with a neutral expression, level camera, visible jawline, and hair moved away from the outer face. Avoid wide-angle close-ups that distort facial proportions.
In the Android app
Use a front-facing photo with your face and hairline visible in even light.

Common questions
Many lengths and textures can work. The useful question is which details you want to emphasize—such as height, softness, width, movement, or the jawline—not whether a face shape is “allowed” to wear a style.
No tool can make that personal decision with certainty. Glowify is most useful for comparing several realistic directions on your own photo, then discussing the favorite with a stylist who understands your hair texture and routine.

Nearby options
Use the alternatives below to isolate the detail that matters most to your decision.

Curtain bangs change the visual frame around the eyes and cheekbones without fully covering the forehead. Their length and opening determine whether they feel airy, dramatic, or blended.

A bob changes the outline around your jaw and neck, so even a small shift in length can feel dramatic. Preview the silhouette on your own face before deciding where the line should fall.

A pixie exposes more of the forehead, ears, cheekbones, and neck than most cuts. Previewing those proportions can make a major haircut decision feel more concrete.

Bangs can transform the frame around the eyes and forehead, but “bangs” includes several very different shapes. Preview the density, length, and opening before choosing one.
