If you’re looking to accentuate your cheekbones with a little help from a new hairstyle, look no further than this list for fun ideas to help make showing off your cheekbones a walk in the park!
1 Half-up
Half-up hairstyles pull your hair off of your face and draw all of the attention to your face rather than your hair. If you’re looking to accentuate your cheekbones, try this style. The look will pull the hair back away from your face, and pinning it back will make the look absolutely perfect!
Frequently asked questions
2 Pinned Back from Your Face
If half-up isn’t really your thing but you still want to pull your hair away from your face, there’s still a solution! Take the pieces of hair that frame your face, whether it’s bangs or layers or something else, and pin them back with bobby pins. Twist them back or simply pin them back to achieve a simple yet pretty look that will accentuate your cheekbones!
3 A Slicked Back Bun
Stiffly pulling all of your hair away from your face and twisting it into a bun is an easy way to show off your cheekbones. There’s a reason that ballerinas always keep their hair off of their face—not only does it make dancing easier, but it always shows off your pretty face!
4 Curled Away from Your Face
Again, keep your hair off of your face to truly accentuate your cheekbones. If you’re looking to keep your hair down but you still want to accentuate your cheekbones, try curling your hair. A lot of women who curl their hair often make the mistake of curling their hair towards their face. It crowds your face and hides those pretty cheekbones! Curl your hair away from your face to fix that issue!
5 Side Swept Bangs
A lot of people think that side swept bangs don’t create the right effect when you’re trying to show off your cheekbones. However, that couldn’t be further from the truth. The shape of the side swept bangs draws attention down to your cheeks rather than hides them.
6 Farrah Fawcett Curls
Farrah Fawcett’s hair is an iconic look that accentuates your cheekbones. She always wore her hair in a middle part and then would curl her hair in almost a fan-like fashion away from her face. The feathered look pulls the attention away from your hair and towards your face!
7 A Short Bob
If you’re looking for a cut, a short bob is the perfect way to go. The short length should end right below your cheekbones, and it will draw the attention towards your face and will show it off beautifully!
