ExploreIf you are looking for the best haircut for thin faces, know that this face shape is characterized by a wide forehead and small chin, in addition to being generally longer than other types of faces. Thus, for those seeking greater balance in the look, it is recommended to bet on haircuts with volume on the sides, in addition to bangs, which give the visual impression of a less elongated face. With that in mind, Fica Diva listed three options for cuts for a thin face and other tips on how to style the hair to enhance the features.
Haircut for thin face: medium and layered hair adds volume to the sides of the face
Because it is longer, the thin face does not have much volume and definition on the sides. Thus, very long and straight hair accentuates this feature even more, unlike medium and textured cuts, which will create this volume on the sides of the face and create the illusion that it is shorter.
A sure-cut haircut option for a thin face is the medium-length cut with many layers below the ear, which will provide a voluminous effect. On a daily basis, side parting and texturing the strands with styling products help to accentuate the effect of the cut.
Anyone who wants to invest in fashionable medium cuts, such as the long bob, should pay attention to finishing the look, avoiding very straight and longitudinal ends.

The straight bangs cut in layers are the ideal option for those who don't give up the long
For those with long hair who cry at the thought of running the scissors through the strands, the solution is to bet on layers and straight bangs. The layers add volume and movement to long hair without shortening it, while the straight bangs come in to finish off the look and make it more balanced with its horizontal shape that covers the forehead and reduces the length of the face.
To enhance the cut and prevent long hair from becoming heavy, bet on finishes that accentuate the lateral volume. Those with straight and very fine strands can use accessories such as the curling iron to texturize their hair, while those with curly hair can use a diffuser to achieve more definition and volume. Afterwards, just loosen the curls with a few drops of hair oil or tip repair silicone in the palm of your hand.

Short haircut for thin face: bob and pixie cut balance the length of the face
Short cuts are also great allies for those with thin faces. With the right models and finishes, it is possible to balance the dimensions of the face and make the look more harmonious. The first option is the chin-length bob cut with a straight base to create the horizontality that shortens the face. As with medium and long hair, volume on the side is essential to enhance a thin face, so layers are also welcome.
The peaked pixie cut with bangs is another surefire haircut option for a thin face, as the strands over the forehead also harmonize the proportions of the face. In this case, in addition to straight bangs, it is worth betting on long and side bangs. Avoid baby bangs, which can further accentuate the gap between your chin and forehead. When finishing short cuts like the pixie, take care not to create volume on the top of the head, giving preference to styling techniques that leave the roots smoother.
