Read your own head first
Before you fall for a photo, look at two things: your hairline and your face shape. A receding or high hairline plays nicely with a faded crop or a Caesar - the forward fringe softens the front while the fade keeps everything tidy. Round face? Height on top, like a quiff or a pompadour-leaning style, stretches it and adds angle. A longer face balances better with a bit more on the sides and less lift, so a textured crop or Ivy League sits right. Square jaws can carry almost anything, a hard skin fade included. The usual mistake is copying a celebrity cut that was built for a completely different head. Use the gallery to test the shape on your own face, not theirs.
