• Many fashionable hairstyles can enhance a heart-shaped or oval face.face to face image by Melanie von Snarly from Fotolia.com
  
  Many hairdressers agree that an oval-shaped face is the most adaptable to many trendy hairstyles. However, numerous styles can be applied to compliment the heart-shaped face with only slight variation. Medium length hair allows the most styling versatility for women of either facial structure. Whether you have short bangs, long bangs, or no bangs, frame your face and accentuate your jawline to create a multitude of fashionable hairstyles for an oval- or heart-shaped face.
  
  

Short

• Avoid short bangs to elongate a wide forehead.young girl with short hair image by amlet from Fotolia.com
  
  Medium-length haircuts are best suited for heart-shaped faces, but if you prefer a short haircut try to avoid having bangs. Short bangs tend to widen an already wide forehead, and with no hair around the cheeks and jaw, they make the chin seem even pointier on a heart-shaped face. Choose a short hairstyle that has some height on top to elongate the face and distract from the forehead. For an oval-shaped face, thin wispy bags can prevent the height on top from elongating the appearance of your face.
  
  

Long Layers

  Cutting long layers into medium or shoulder-length hair will nicely frame an oval face and give a heart-shaped face a more oval appearance. This style requires the hair to be nearly all one length -- without bangs -- to allow for lower layering. Keeping your hair parted in the center to elongate your face, have your stylist add a few long layers that begin at the jawline to create volume and definition in this area. Drawing attention and fullness to the jaw area will help balance the proportion of a heart-shaped face and add volume and width to a long or narrow oval-shaped face.
  
  

Waves

• Use heated styling aids to create waves and curls.hair styling image by MAXFX from Fotolia.com
  
  A medium-length bob or long layered haircut gives a naturally sexy look to either facial structure by adding a few light waves. Use a curling iron or electric rollers to add soft waves and ringlets from the root to the ends. Once the hair is cooled, spray lightly with hairspray and gently pick or run your fingers through it to add wispy wavy volume, concentrating mainly at the jawline. For naturally wavy hair, use a mousse or curl-enhancing product and scrunch the lower sections in your hand while air drying, or use a diffuser when blow-drying.
  
  

Jaw-Length Bob Haircut

  For a sleek and classic style that compliments both facial types, a jaw-length bob with long bangs may work for you. Keeping the hair straight and parted to the side, have your stylist cut an even, blunt bob style just below the jawline. Adding a layer of long smooth bangs that reach just past the cheek bone will create the appearance of fullness at the jawline that evens out a heart-shaped face at the bottom. The long smooth bangs will disguise a wider forehead when swept sideways, and will enhance the symmetry of an already oval face.
