FACE SHAPE- DIAMOND

  DAINTY DIAMOND

DEFINING CHARACTERISTIC:

A diamond face shape should balance out a narrow chin, reduce broader cheekbones, and shrink overall length. Straight bangs, as well as sides, will have the effect of narrowing a lengthy face. Diamond face shapes necessitate haircuts, styles, and cosmetics that bring out the best in the narrow and full features that combine to form their distinctive shape.

You will identify the following traits if you have a diamond face shape:

• Your face’s length is more than its width.
• The brow is slanted and the jawline are around the same width.
• The chin is pretty angular.
• Diamond face shape’s jawline is long and thin, tapering to a point.
• Cheekbones are pronounced and pointed, which are the broadest part of your face.

EARRINGS:

Your eyes and the widest part of your face are in line with each other and your forehead‘s width mirrors your chins width.

Studs or chandelier earrings that are wider at the bottom, are great options to balance the angles of the diamond shape face.

 Stick to gentle curvy shapes such as hoops and mid-length teardrops to soften and flatter your sharp features.     

NECKLACES:

When choosing necklaces, go for matinee and princess lengths to lengthen the face. A striking pendant can also help with visual harmony.

NECKLINES:

Type: V-necklines will accentuate your narrow jawline. If you want to round it out, opt for scoop or round neckline styles.
Width: Go for wider necklines to make your face appear more balanced.
Depth: Try for high necklines to camouflage length, so high crew neck and turtle necks will create the illusion of a shorter face.

SUNGLASSES:

Diamond shaped faces should be complemented by angular frames like cat-eyes, but rectangular and oval shaped frames work too. Color-wise, a pair of glasses that are darker or heavier on the top (such as half rimmed glasses) are a fantastic choice for sunglasses. They give more structure to the top of the face and distract from the bottom where the jawline is elongated.

Diamond face shapes look best in cat eye, oval, narrow, rimless or top heavy frames. Soften the cheekbones by selecting a frame with gentle curves that is no wider than the width of the cheekbones.

HATS:

If you’re a diamond face shape, you have a lot of width around your cheekbones and eyes but have a shorter, more narrow forehead and jaw. The goal when picking out a hat for a diamond is to find a shape that creates more length. This can be accomplished with hats worn farther back into your hairline or just at your hairline. Try styling your beanies farther back and picking out hats that have shallow crowns, which are meant to be worn farther back on your head.

Wear: hats worn farther back on your head

Avoid: wearing hats across your forehead and floppy hats

EYEBROWS:

This type of face structure is not as common as the others. The face is highly angular and the forehead is short, while the face is widest at the temples.
If you are one of the people that has this kind of face, go for a curved brow. It is going to help soften your angles and give the impression that your face is symmetrical. To do a curved brow, just follow your natural eyebrow’s shape and make the lines as soft as possible.

HAIRSTYLES:

Diamond face shapes are coveted because they are symmetrical and balanced, so your main objective is to accentuate your elegant face shape, rather than balance anything out. Opt for long, side-swept bangs to highlight your cheekbones with long layers, or go short with a textured lob. As well, try out a sleek middle part with your hair tucked behind your ears or a sleek high ponytail to show off your bone structure. 

Hairstyles to avoid for diamond faces:

With diamond faces, it's not so much what to do as what not to do. Diamond face shapes can pull off pretty much any hairstyle, however, there are a few styles to avoid. Because your face narrows at the chin, avoid heavy, rounded bangs, which shorten the face, making it look smaller than it is. On that note, try to avoid straight-across bangs as well, as these accentuate the widest part of your face, making your chin appear even narrower.
