Frequently Asked Questions

Do wolf cuts look good on diamond faces?

Yes, wolf cuts are perfect for diamond faces as they add layers that draw attention to the jawline. The bangs take the attention off the forehead.

Is an undercut good for a diamond face shape?

An undercut may not be ideal for a diamond face shape as it harshens the sharp facial features, face outline, and any fine lines or wrinkles.

Is a diamond face shape attractive?

Yes, a diamond face shape is attractive. Diamond faces have a narrow forehead and chin, but wide cheekbones, making them truly stand out. They are also considered the rarest shape out there.

Is short or long hair better for a diamond face shape?

You can rock both short and long hair with a diamond face shape. If you’re looking for a great style, consider subtle layers, as they mold to your features and create the right accents for a diamond-shaped face. Long hair with layers and bangs is a great option.

What hairstyles to avoid with diamond face shape?

Avoid excessive layers and volume if you have a diamond face shape. Straight, unlayered hair works best as it accentuates your sharp hairline. Avoid short haircuts as they add fullness to your cheekbones and accentuate the sharp hairline. Choose hairstyles that balance your narrow chin, reduce broader cheekbones, and shorten your overall face length.

Does shoulder length hair look good on diamond face shapes?

Yes, shoulder-length hair works great for a diamond-shaped face. A haircut that sits at or just below the shoulders, with some layers, can give your hair lots of volume and the illusion of width. This is especially helpful for balancing out your face shape.

Can I still wear a center part with a diamond face shape?

Yes, you can wear a center part even if you have a diamond face shape, but a side part may be more flattering. This is because diamond-shaped faces tend to have high cheekbones that can be best shown off with a side part, while a center part might cover them up if your hair is in front of your ears.
