Q & A
How can you determine your face shape?
-To determine your face shape, look at your face in the mirror and examine the perimeter of your face, focusing on three points: your mid-face, jaw, and forehead. If your jaw and forehead are wider than your mid-face, you likely have a rectangular face. If your jaw is narrower than your mid-face and forehead, you have a diamond face shape. If your mid-face is wider than both your jaw and forehead, your face shape is round or oval.
What are some recommended hairstyles for individuals with rectangular or square face shapes?
-For rectangular or square face shapes, recommended hairstyles include a long messy side part, a classic crew cut, and a fringe with medium to short length hair on top and shorter sides. These styles help balance the face shape by either adding width to a longer face or adding height and structure to a shorter face.
What is the role of the Forte series styling cream in achieving the long messy side part hairstyle?
-The Forte series styling cream is used to achieve the long messy side part hairstyle by providing medium hold, allowing for a textured and natural look without a stiff or overly structured appearance. It's applied by emulsifying it between the hands and raking it through the hair to set it in place.
How can the Face App help in choosing a hairstyle?
-The Face App allows users to upload a selfie and virtually try on different hairstyles. This helps individuals visualize how various styles might look on them, aiding in the decision-making process for choosing the most flattering hairstyle.
What are the best hairstyles for round or oval face shapes?
-For round or oval face shapes, the classic comb over, choppy top, and side swept hairstyles are recommended. These styles add angles and structure to the face, creating a more balanced and defined appearance.
Why might a buzz cut not be suitable for everyone?
-A buzz cut can round out the face, making it less suitable for those with round faces as it may emphasize the roundness. However, individuals with strong facial features like a defined jaw, cheekbones, or brow ridge may carry off a buzz cut well, as the lack of hair draws attention to these features.
What are some tips for individuals with a diamond face shape?
-For diamond face shapes, consider growing out a beard to add width to the lower part of the face. Hairstyles such as a classic middle part, messy side part, and short side part with longer hair on top can help balance the face shape by adding width or structure where needed.
How can you enhance the look of a messy side part hairstyle?
-To enhance a messy side part hairstyle, use a lighter hold product like a styling cream, apply it to damp hair, and then use your fingers to rake through your hair, creating a textured and casual look.
What products from the Forte series are recommended for different hair lengths and styles?
-For longer hair, the Forte series styling cream is recommended for its medium hold and versatility. For shorter hair, a stronger hold product like a molding paste or clay can be used. The argan oil can add moisture and silkiness, while the instant volume powder provides texture and volume.
How can you achieve the side swept hairstyle for round or oval face shapes?
-To achieve the side swept hairstyle, grow your hair to at least three to four inches on top. Keep the sides shorter and use a lighter hold product like a styling cream. Sweep the hair to one side to add bulk and structure without making the face appear too wide.
What is the significance of the Forte series community in the development of their products?
-The Forte series community, consisting of over 15,000 people, provided input in the creation of the product line. This collective feedback ensures that the products meet a wide range of needs and preferences, resulting in high-quality grooming products.
