What Hairstyle Suits My Face? AI Previews 30 Seconds Before You Commit

How often does hair go wrong?

Every couple of weeks someone in your circle posts a “before vs after” disaster. The math is brutal:

• Dye: $50-300 / ₩100k-300k. If it fails, wait 3-6 months for it to grow out — or pay again to fix it.
• Perm: $100-400. If it fails, wait for hair to grow + cut.
• Bangs: free, but suffer for 2-3 months.

On Reddit r/coloranalysis (258K subscribers), 16-20% of top monthly posts are “Should I get bangs?”, “This hair color on me?”, “Bob or lob?” — the irreversibility makes it the perfect AI use case.

Quick reference: 6 face shapes × recommended cuts

1. Round (颧骨柔和)

Width ≈ length, soft jaw

Best	Normal	Avoid
Collarbone-length straight	Mid-length curls	Blunt bangs
Side-part long curls	Light wave at collarbone	Round short cut
Hime-cut (公主切)		Even shoulder-length

Goal: lengthen visually, avoid horizontal cuts.

2. Oblong / Long

Best	Normal	Avoid
Blunt bangs	Side-part long	Center-part poker straight
Light-wave collarbone	”8-character” bangs	High ponytail
Egg-roll perm		Slicked-back

Goal: widen horizontally, shorten visual length.

3. Square

Best	Normal	Avoid
8-character bangs	Collarbone-length curls	Blunt bangs
Curved side-part	Mid-length straight	Pixie with sharp angle
Big waves		Bowl cut

Goal: soften jawline, avoid sharpness.

4. Oval

Best	Normal	Avoid
Almost everything	—	Few extreme styles

Lucky you. Experiment freely.

5. Heart / Inverted Triangle

Best	Normal	Avoid
Collarbone straight	Side-part long	Pixie
8-character bangs	Mid-length curls	High ponytail
Hime-cut		Slicked back

Goal: add jaw volume, avoid emphasizing forehead.

6. Diamond

Best	Normal	Avoid
Center-part long curls	Collarbone straight	Blunt bangs
Side-part collarbone	Big waves	High ponytail

Goal: soften cheekbones, balance narrow top + bottom + wide middle.

Face shape is just step 1

Hairstyle adaptation also depends on:

1. Density: thin → don’t go too short (head shrinks); thick → don’t go too long (heavy)
2. Texture: natural curl → don’t fight it with straightening (rebounds in a week); fine soft → don’t perm (won’t hold)
3. Neck length: short → avoid mid-shoulder (cluttered); long → avoid super-short (exposes neck)
4. Vibe: soft → straight wins; sharp → short / asymmetric

Plus dye color depends on color season (Warm Spring → honey blonde; Cool Winter → pure black or chocolate). 6+ variables — impossible to mentally simulate.
