Square Face Hairstyles for Women

Haircuts that work with the square face's proportions — what to ask for, and what to skip.

What works

Waves and soft layers round the corners of a strong jaw.
Side parts with lift break the horizontal forehead line.
A long bob ending 2–3 cm below the jaw lets the jaw read defined, not boxed.

What to skip

Sharp geometric bobs that end exactly at the jawline — they double the square.

Why this works on your shape

Round the corners: waves, curves and oval frame shapes offset the strong horizontal jawline.
