Hello Jeanie,
Choosing the right wig that complements your face shape is a great way to enhance your features and boost your confidence. Here are some guidelines to help you find the perfect match for your face shape.
Oval Face Shape: If you have an oval face, you’re in luck! Most wig styles will look harmonious on you, including those with bangs. You can wear long, flowing layers, bobs, or even pixie cuts. Just be sure to choose a style that balances your facial features rather than overwhelming them.
Round Face Shape: To elongate a round face, look for wigs with height on top and less volume along the sides. Layered styles like the best-selling Peace Wig or longer, angled bobs can help create the illusion of a longer face. Avoid short, blunt-cut bobs and chunky layers as these can accentuate the roundness.
Square Face Shape: For those with a square face, the goal is to soften the jawline. Wigs with waves or curls that flow past the jawline or shoulder-length bobs with soft layers are ideal. You can also consider a side-part to distract from the symmetry of a square face.
Heart Face Shape: A heart-shaped face will benefit from wigs that add volume around the jawline to balance the face. Styles like chin-length bobs, side-swept bangs like the Mane Attraction Romance Wig, or layered waves work wonderfully. Avoid short, full styles with tapered necklines, as these can make the upper face appear heavier.
Remember, the key to choosing the right wig is trying on different styles and seeing what feels best for you if you have a physical location you can visit. Places like Glamour Boutique have a showroom where you can shop in private and try on all the wigs to find what works best.
If you have to shop online then try to use a service that has live customer service so you can get good advice and remember our Crossdressing Tips Blog has lots of Wig Tip Articles to help you!
Don’t be afraid to experiment and consult with a stylist if you’re unsure!
All the best,
Katie
