In order to choose the best haircut, you’ll, first of all, take the shape of your face into consideration. If you have an oval face, then here are 50 haircuts that’ll not only be perfect for you but also end up accentuating your overall attractiveness:

1. The short, tomboyish haircut for oval faces

It goes without saying that the short haircut is great for both male and females, irrespective of the shape of their faces. In addition to that, the hairstyle is also very easy to maintain, that’s beside adding some proportion to your oval face. This haircut has been made popular by celebs such as Charlize Theron, George Clooney, and Brad Pitt.

This is another haircut that looks hella good on top of an oval face. Achieving the middle split haircut involves splitting your hair in between, allowing the two layers to flow freely down the opposite sides.

3. The unisex, chin-length split haircut

This haircut is meant for the males and females who prefer their hair short or of medium length. And just like the split, the layers on this coif separate at the middle of the head and allowed to flow downwards but not going past the chin.

4. The long, curly haircut for oval faces

The long, curly coif is one of the many hairdos that blend effortlessly with oval faces. To achieve this hairdo, one will begin by separating the long layers of hair from the middle, allowing them to free fall way past the shoulders.
