Besides highlighting the hair and modernizing the look, a good cut values the positive points and hides the face's imperfections. But, for a good result, it is fundamental to harmonize with the features of the physiognomy.

Oval

- Characteristics: chin a little longer and narrower than the temples, and a high forehead.
- What looks good: Everything. You can use every type of cut. This type of face looks great with chin-length bangs and wavy short ones.
- What to avoid: very long and full hair that hides the face. Straight cuts, such as long and straight hairdos, also do not match.

Triangular

- Characteristics: the broad forehead forms a triangle with the thin and long chin. The face is a little salient along the sides.
- What looks good: layered cuts along the entire length give volume and break the chin's angular look. Short, straight or wavy strands always look good.
- What to avoid: it is necessary to turn attention away from the chin. Therefore, no bangs, short hair with volume on top of the head, pulled back hairdos and Chanel cuts with the ends turned inwards.

Square

- Characteristics: wide face with prominent jaws that are almost twice the size of face's cheeks. The chin and forehead also tend to be larger.
- What looks good: medium length hair and asymmetrical cuts, hairdos parted down the middle or on the side. The layered Chanel cut is indicated. Slightly frayed bangs soften the angular format.
- What to avoid: geometric cuts that accentuate the jaws and bangs, especially straight cuts that emphasize the horizontal format of this type of face. Also avoid volume along the sides and very short, close to the head cuts.

Round

- Characteristics: because it gives the impression of being overweight due to the broad face, it is the negative target of most women. The chin is rounded and the temples very wide.
- What looks good: layered cuts without bangs that break the rounded look. Long hair with straight cuts always make you look thinner. For a modern look, an irregular layered cut, feathered at the ends, looks great. Those who have a round face and voluminous, curly hair, can opt for a short cut with the right to a feathered look.
- What to avoid: straight bangs, lengths above or at chin level and pulled back hairdos.

Eyebrows personalize the look and give harmony to the face. Some out of place hairs can give a heavy, tired and even aged appearance. It is thus very important to know the ideal design, thickness and format.
  
Step by step for perfect eyebrows.

1. Sketch the desired format with a brown or black make-up pencil for eyebrows.

2. Remove all hairs that lie outside the contour made with the pencil. Begin from the base of the inner corner of the eye until reaching the outer corner. Pull one hair at a time, always in the growth direction and near the root in order to not break the strand;

3. After cleaning the entire area below the arch, begin with the area above the eyebrow. In this area, you should only remove the fuzz;

4. Comb the hairs upward and check which ones need to be trimmed. With a fine-tipped scissors, cut hair by hair so the eyebrow does not look clipped.

Advice from the best professionals for you.

Claus Borges, from L'equipe, São Paulo, SP

"It is fundamental to be aware of all trends as well as the most modern techniques. Nowadays, the customer arrives at the salon already well-informed and knowing what they want. A hairdresser who is not concerned about knowing the news is soon outdated. A good professional needs to have a technical eye, to analyze every customer and indicate the look that best matches their face, even if the person already has a look in mind.  I believe the hairstylist's profile is very important. Since I travel a lot to participate in workshops, I notice there are coiffeurs who do not value their own image, without realizing it helps sell their work."

Hélio Nakanishi, Hélio Diffusion dês Coiffeurs Team, Brasília, DF

"Before anything else, for a good result, the hairdresser must analyze the customer's face and hair texture. Then he can define the best style for each customer. The most important accessory for work is a scissors with a precise blade, thus ensuring a perfect cut."

Hugo Moser, from Hugo Beauty Fashion Hair, Porto Alegre, RS

"To get good results, besides the perfect understanding between the customer and the professional, the materials (scissors, brushes, combs, etc.) must be excellent quality. The good hairdresser must have experience, talent and skill to make several types of cuts: long or short, disconnected, frayed, symmetrical or asymmetrical."

Paolo Biagiolli, from PPM Estética, São Paulo, SP

"Contrary to what many professionals do, hair needs to be analyzed before washing and not after. The shape of the neck, forehead, head must also be analyzed before choosing the new look. I like to talk a lot with the customer before beginning to cut. I only pick up the scissors after. No doubt, this avoids unpleasant surprises for both of us. The work instrument must be top of the line to facilitate one's work and not ruin the hair, causing an undesirable bristly effect, for example. I also try to be very careful and selective when it comes time to choose the products wash or style the hair. Quality formulas only add greater value to a good cut and hairdo."
