With 2017 finally upon us, it’s time to kick into action all the plans and promises made in 2016.
Its factors in life such as work, family, friends & lifestyle choices that can make a large impact on not only how we feel but how we see ourselves, so it’s important that as we step into the new year we address aspects of our life that breed negativity and focus our energies on what makes us happy & motivated.
Whether it’s a new career path, change in lifestyle or a bit of soul searching you’re hoping to achieve, we’re here to help you accomplish it feeling your best and with more confidence than ever.
A fresh colour and cut personalised to enhance and compliment your face shape, skin tone & personality can make a huge difference to your self confidence, making it easier to take on challenges/situations that you may have otherwise avoided.
Below is a table listing our various face shapes & the styles best suited to enhance your natural beauty.
| Face Shape | Qualities | Hair Style | Fringe |
| Oval | The length of your face equals 1.5 times the width | Most styles & fringes inc. Bobs & pixie cuts | All |
| Oblong | Similar to oval shapes but with either a longer chin or forehead | Most styles & Fringes. Avoid extra long styles as these will elongate your face. | All |
| Round | The width of your forehead & cheekbones are more or less equal & your features soft. | Long or short styles with movement | Long, Side swept |
| Square | Similar to round face shapes but you have sharp, angular features | Asymmetric styles with layers & curved edges to soften the face | Feathered |
| Heart | Your face is wider at the forehead & narrow at the chin | Long with a fringe to highlight cheekbones. | Long |
| Triangle | The narrowest part of your face sits at your temples, widening slightly at the cheeks and extending down to the jaw line. | Lots of layers creating fullness at the top & drawing attention to jaw line. Fringes, side partings and hair styled half up work well. | Curtained/ Feathered |
To ensure you’re getting the best out of your cut/style, it is always useful to invest in a few good style aids (in addition to your stylist recommended shampoo & conditioner).
