Hat-attack!

Good-day everyone, what we would be discussing today is of utmost importance to both sexes, so go to the bookmark option and save this page. The headgear is fast becoming a necessity both for fashion purposes and global-warming, and hence before your rip one off the head of a mannequin here are somethings you should know.

Six Methods:Long Face/ Oblong Face
Heart Shaped Face
Square Face
Oval Face
Round Face
Triangle Face

Most of you may have had trouble buying a hat: The hat looks absolutely incredible and super chic on the mannequin, and you realize painfully later that the hat worn around your head looks infinitely unsatisfactory. Then you are stuck in the vicious circle that every hat seems odd or silly on you. You become, sadly, hat-paranoid. It's time to turn a new leaf and resume the adventure. By picking a flattering hat based on your face shape, you can add flair and sharpness to your appearance.


Method 1 of 6: Long Face/ Oblong Face

1
See if you have this face shape. Long face features high forehead, narrow jaw line and long length.


2
Pick some optimal hats. Try a hat with a flared brim and low crown, such as a sunhat, a cloche or a fedora with a large brim. The large brim of a sunhat may well offset the length of a long face. A cloche worn low to your eyebrows can help conceal your high forehead, and, like sorcery, create an impression of shortened face. The large brim of the fedora also counterbalances vertical curves.
3
Avoid any hats with tall crowns which only elongate your face even further.

Method 2 of 6: Heart Shaped Face

1
Recognize if your face is heart-shaped. Heart shaped face has a broad forehead, wide cheekbone and pointy chin. Chin is the narrowest part of a heart shaped face.
2
Experiment with styles that flatter you. Go with medium brimmed hats, such as a fedora with a medium sized brim, boater, cloche, homburg, beanie, beret or toque. They are all good choices to make. The hats mentioned above balance out the width of your forehead. It can prevent your jaw line from appearing narrow. Slanting the hat to one side will slim your face and draw attention to the eyes. Actually, any type will work well on you except those with large brims.
3
Avoid shapes that accentuate the shape. Stay away from wide brims which only accentuate your forehead and narrow your chin.

Method 3 of 6: Square Face

1
Look at your facial proportions. With a square shaped face, its length is almost equal to its width. The distance from forehead to chin and that from cheek to cheek are the same. A broad forehead and a strong chin are the main features of a square shaped face.
2
Experiment with circular styles. Your defined and symmetrical face requires circular features to soften the edges of the face. Round crown and brim will do the trick - smoothing a boxy face and inducing the illusion of height and roundness. Opt for a sunhat, a cowboy hat, a homburg, a cloche or a toque which gives you a feminine and flirty touch. A beret will elongate and cushion your facial contour. Tilting the hat off to one side breaks up the symmetry pattern of your square face. A sunhat with a pair of sunglasses and a flowing maxi dress adds boho-chic to your ensemble. It is a perfect combination for your beach vacation.
3
Don't wear a hat with a short brim, no brim or a square hat. The two types of hats will both emphasize your angular face shape.

Method 4 of 6: Oval Face

1
See if your face has an oval shape. If so, it'll look like an egg. It has broader cheeks, slightly narrowed forehead and jaw line. The forehead is a bit wider than the chin.
2
Feel free to try all kinds of hats! You are blessed and try on any style you like. Pick up whatever suits your mood as long as the hat is in harmony with your outfit. Experiment with earrings, necklace and bracelet, women with oval faces can top off any hat.
The possibilities are limitless. It depends on your personal preferences.

Method 5 of 6: Round Face


1
Determine if your face is round. A round face as it implies has round chin, full cheek and a round hairline. It makes you look younger than other shapes.
2
Add some asymmetry to your look. You can perfectly handle a fedora, a newsboy hat or a baseball cap. This symmetrical face cries out for a new angle: asymmetry. The roundness requires a slimming treatment. Your main goal is to choose a hat that helps distract people's attention from your facial curves, and eliminate the power of first impression about your chubby and short face. It is wise to select a hat with a high crown and straight brim in order to give your face more angles. Moreover, slanting your hat forward draws out your face and gives a touch of definition.
3
Steer clear of round crowns which aggravates the roundness of your face.

Method 6 of 6: Triangle Face

1
Consider whether you've got a triangle look. Triangle shaped faces are also known as pear shaped faces, a little longer than they are wide. *The narrow forehead widens from the cheekbone to chin. The chin is the widest, maybe angular or rounded.
2
Feel free to try many hats. A triangle face is like an oval face shape that the options are virtually endless when it comes to a hat. Make sure your hat brings balance to your shoulder line, and accent to your garment.
3
Never get close to a crown that is narrower than the cheekbones.
