Btw this reply was meant to be to @lisacarden1309. Don’t know how it got misnomed 🤦‍♀️ Yes. I am sure I could get a “hairstyle” that is more flattering to me. But, as just an active woman I find my boring shoulder length, no layers, no fringe (bangs) hair works in a practical manner 70% of the time. (lol not even a farmer……I just want to be able to tie my hair up so it doesn’t get in my eyes, get sweaty, look messy at the gym, while gardening, while doing hobbies, doing housework, just living). Yes…..I know I could look better……..but I can’t fathom how to make a “hairstyle” work in my life. I have tried in the past. And failed lol. I keep watching these vids to see if the advice will work for me. I will keep watching. I do like to see others transformed. All power to those who can do it all AND look great with a “hairstyle”.

Clear and easy to understand. I appreciated your emphasis that your tips were not JUST about balancing "flaws" but also about deciding upon one's favorite features and playing them up. I also appreciated your description of bang varieties because I usually think of bangs as the forehead fringe variety. Now I understand why my stylists need more specific info from me.

Can you do some content on curly hair. Best cuts for curl patterns, how to work with your stylist to find best cut, any tips! So many stylist don’t know how to work with curly hair- help!

Another helpful video! It is so refreshing to be given great content without a sales pitch! Is is odd however that I enjoy your videos so much due to having alopecia and not having hair at all! You help me decide what wigs are best for me.

Thank you! Glad I could help! I totally agree. I actually spent about 5 hours photoshopping different bob haircuts on peoples faces then realized there was too much "other" stuff that was distracting from really being able to see what role the shape of the bob was playing.

Best video I’ve seen on explaining hair style for face shapes! Thank you ❤

This was so helpful! Using the illustrations to show face shape is so much easier to understand- usually when real faces are shown as examples of face shape I’m unable to “see” what they’re talking about. I loved seeing how Bob and bang lengths and styles alters the fullness/shortens the facial features.

Cool! More clarification! I was thinking along the same lines for my longish/rectangularish face. Namely a bob that ends just below the chin. I still haven't worked up the courage to do it, but at least I have a good idea of what's most likely to work for when that day comes :)

Really good advice from a pro on the bob. I am definitely getting side bangs cut this week to balance my oval face. Too much weight on bottom! Thanks so much!

Hi Justin! Great video, one of my favorites from you...COULD YOU MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT FACES HAPES + HAIR OF THE FACE HAIRSTYLES? So many women put their hair up in a ponytail or in an updo for more casual days and how to do it in a most flattering way would be so helpful! Thanks for considering!

Very helpful video. Am still knocked out by last weeks video though. That bob on Suzy was PERFECTION and exactly what I've been wanting for years. No wonder you won hands down. Just to mention, your last few videos in that living room have been so dark it's hard to see you.

Hi Justin, have you covered hairstyles that look good both wavy/curly and straight, for us ladies over 50 with textured hair?

I bought the Laifen last fall when you recommended it and it's wonderful, just like you say it is. I think I need to study my face shape more--what I think it is differs from what everyone else in my family says (and they all say different things).

The Bob has always been my go to hairstyle for almost my whole life. I have a roundish face and I ve tried to get exactly what you are describing. But difficult to get a stylist to cut what I want. They usually make it very square looking which I don’t like.

This was so helpful 🥲❤ Thankyou. 🙏

Very helpful video! Now would you please kindly do a video about how to determine our face shape. I am having a hard time figuring that out.

I'm going to have to watch this again! So much information! I'm an oval shape and I do try a lot of different styles because I kind of get bored with my hair! LOL! My next appointment is in August, but I think I'm going to move it up a few weeks! Thus is going to be fun! 😊❤

Thank you! I’m glad this could help. If you’re more of an oval face shape, you really can’t do a lot. Try and think less about overall face shape and more about specific features of your face that you either want to draw attention away from or bring attention to. Because you can wear so many different shapes, doing that will ensure that whatever shape it is the best shape for you. I hope that makes sense.

I splurged on the Laifen last November when you recommended it. I really like it. So powerful but yet not super hot as it doesn't need all that damaging heat because it works on air movement. And it isn't super noisy either. Much quieter than my previous hair dryer.

I have a rectangle face, I think.😕 I thought it was oval but looking at people with oval faces something was just not looking accurate. It's very confusing. I realised it was not oval because I ask people in my family and they don't give a straight answer. Or they just don't care. 😆 Now I know how to style my hair. As you said "trying to fit it into the norm." Thanks for this.

Excellent video. Thank you ❤

I so wish I could do as you suggest! I have only ever managed to "tolerate" a side parting when I had a pixie cut... as soon as it grows any longer I naturally default to a middle parting with a straight & choppy fringe... I have a roundish face with a bob below my ears & too thick to wear as one layer... I really dislike any layers that 'flick' into my face... So basically I must be my hairdressers nightmare! I also have quite a low hairline at the nape of my neck... therefore I ask for it to be cut as short as possible to stop it flicking up as it grows! I love listening to all your advice ♥ you're an inspiration.

This video is perfect for any woman entering a salon. If your stylist can’t explain exactly what Justin has said here, then perhaps you should consider going to a different stylist. What Justin is explaining are all basic truths. And unless you are “married” to a specific hairstyle please have this discussion with your hairstylist. I owned a salon for 10 years, in Chicago. I found that women who refuse to even consider changing their hairstyle usually had that hairstyle during the happiest times in their life…even if it was 30 years ago. If that’s the case, I would gently offer a new hair style, but in the end I would give them the hairstyle that insured they would leave with a smile. Really enjoy your videos, Justin! Brings back such memories! I loved 99% of my clients, and learned so much from the other 1%.

I think I’m going to let my hair grow some. Maybe in the fall. I’m not sure I can survive in the summer with my hair growing. But I’ve always wanted a bob. Now I know what kind I should get. This was a great video for me to figure out which one I should get.

Thanks for the video. I have a rectangle face with a larger forehead and a slight widow's peak. Currently my hair falls around my shoulders in mostly one length. I am wondering if adding more layering and side swept bangs is a good idea? I want some length to be able to pull my hair up as I have an active lifestyle.

Love ALL the vids! 2 questions how does this dryer hold up against the dyson, besides it’s affordable? I recently bought the hair story shampoo/conditioner and the undressed. Is there a chance of product build up? Thanks again.

Your pups are adorable and both have great hair! Lol. My dog is going to love the blow dryer test. I think I have had every face shape depending on weight or life cycle. 😊 The older I get the more I want to emphasize my eyes and cheek bones. What about a shorter bob, above the chin, side swept and tucked behind one ear? What face shape does that style suit the best? Thank you!

@justinhickox

11 ай бұрын

Yes they are! Our pups had a GREAT time! Lol. Those bobs can work great. It really depends on where the volume sits since the length is sitting directly at the cheek area. Mainly you just want to be sure to have the volume up towards the temple area and tapered in toward the bottom. That will help you lift those cheekbones. Also, if your face is feeling narrow around the jaw and broad around the cheek bones, a length above the chin can accentuate that.

Helpful video. Thanks.

Good idea for a future video. I appreciate the insight.

Justin, have you heard of the butterfly layer, and if so, what is your thought on that type of layer for medium length hair?

Your hair dryer experiment is so comical! I love the Bernese Mountain dog and the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. The nice thing about your dogs is that they aren’t greedy and don’t fight over the treats. Now, I have a long face, bordering on round, with a widows peak. I also wear glasses. The only bob I like is the long layered bob minus the bangs. Because of the widows peak bangs don’t lay well. Also, my hair is wavy and gets frizzy when I blow it dry. Any suggestions?

True, but I have a roundish face too and very thick and coarse hair. Yet I prefer a no-layers, blunt cut with a short blunt fringe, I don’t care if it enlarges my face, those side swept and layered cuts aren’t for me and I don’t like the look of them. At the end of the day everyone should just have the haircut that makes them feel better:)

I think the shape of your head (side profile) also plays a role on what style suits you best.

I totally hear you! As for longer shapes, you can wear a longer style with your face shape, it would just require some face framing layers to help add a bit of width and keep from a long getting your face too much. Of course, those would be harder to pull back into one ponytail however, a bobby pin on either side of the head around the ear could help get those pieces out of your face when your hair is pulled back if necessary.

I have a round face with a widow’s peak. Love having a bob. I have tried so many times to wear my bangs longer to side sweep them but it just won’t work. And the way my hair falls, I have to have heavy bangs.

This is great! I think I have a diamond face - narrow jaw, highish checkbones, no widows peak - so I should reference the heart face?
