The Best Fade Haircut for Your Face Shape

Choosing the right fade isn't just about what looks trendy—it's about finding a style that complements your unique face shape. Here's your complete guide to selecting the perfect fade.

Round Face

Best Choice: High Fade or Skin Fade

A high fade adds vertical length to your face, creating the illusion of a more angular shape. Pair it with some height on top for the best effect.

Oval Face

Best Choice: Any Fade Style

Lucky you! Oval faces work well with virtually any fade. Try a mid fade for a versatile, classic look.

Square Face

Best Choice: Low Fade or Taper

Softer transitions like a low fade complement your strong jawline without making your face appear boxy.

Oblong Face

Best Choice: Mid Fade with Volume on Sides

Avoid going too short on the sides. A mid fade with some texture helps balance longer face proportions.

Heart-Shaped Face

Best Choice: Low to Mid Fade

Keep some weight on the sides to balance a wider forehead. A textured top draws the eye upward.
