If you have a diamond-shaped face, your choices for wedding hairstyles are endless. Women with this angular face have wide cheekbones with a small chin and narrow forehead. You should opt for hairstyles that reduce the overall length of your face and cheekbones, while balancing your other facial features. Additionally, your wedding hairstyle should harmonize with your hair length and your choice of bridal attire.

Opt for a rounded and layered bob hairstyle that reaches your chin, if you have short hair. Choose side-part straight bangs to reduce the overall length of your diamond-shaped face and give it a symmetrical look. This hairstyle compliments an elegant, simple-cut wedding gown.

2

Style shoulder-length hair into a wispy cut with side bangs in front. This hairstyle works well with all hair textures. It makes the forehead and chin area appear proportional, while the wisps around the shoulders contribute to an appealing, square look. The wispy look blends well with a country-style wedding gown, such as a high-waist wedding frock or period-influenced gown. Use a hairpin to attach a few small flowers to your hair, to add a touch of class and vibrancy.

3

Create layered bangs with long hair and tuck the hair on the sides behind the ears. This style drapes the shoulders and suits wavy- and curly-haired brides, too. It accentuates the cheekbones and makes the narrow areas of the face look wider. If you have wavy or curly hair, you can attach a headpiece on the side of your hair. Choose a headpiece that complements your wedding gown, such as a pearl comb or flower barrette.

4

Use soft waves or loose curls to style long hair. This style will give you a demure, bridal look and reduce the wide appearance of your cheeks.

5

Style your hair into an updo for a dramatic look. You can use a wig or extensions if you want to add extra length. Braid the hair at the back in styles of your choice. Ensure that the hair covers your neck area when styled to prevent your face from looking too wide. Updos work well with ball-style wedding gowns.

Tips & Warnings

Avoid hairstyles that lend height to your head, such as the spiky look. Such hairstyles will make your face look longer that it actually is.
