Quick Face Shape Guide
Oval Face
This face usually has a small forehead, cheekbones that widen and then jawlines that narrows down again with a pointy chin.
Oval faces are very versatile. The only thing to watch out for here are sunglasses that are wider than the width of your face.
Round Face
The jaws are softly angled with similar sized cheekbones and length of face that is also bigger than both jawline and forehead. So here we want to stay away from rounded shades to better balance out the facial features.
Square Face
These guys have wider foreheads, prominent features and sharp jawline angles. To balance out the harshness and squareness of this face, rounded shades are ideal.
Rectangle Face
These men have equal sized jawlines, cheekbones and forehead as well as a long face. For this type of face, it is important to find larger glasses than the size of your face. Square and rounded frames will look ideal.
Heart Face
Men with pointed chins, larger foreheads and a tapering of the jawlines and cheekbones. These men have stronger chins and smaller faces than usual.
This is a trickier face to find frames for since, ideally, we want to take the attention away from the top of the face that is already larger than usual and balance out the narrow jawline and chin. A difficult ordeal, therefore in this case, rounded frames are the best option.
The Takeaway
The only concern you must be aware of after reading this article is the extra attention you’ll be getting from the opposite sex once you start using these trendy shades.
We wish you great luck. Thanks for sticking around and see ya next time!
