Gone are the times when haircuts meant just sitting on the barber’s chair and letting him do the work. Today, to ace the game of style we need to understand the shape of our skull and how it

affects the way we pull of a look. Questions like ‘ Do I have a round face?’ or ‘Is my face of a diamond cut?’ make a lot of sense. Read out our 5-step guide to determine the shape of your

face and make your styling on point.  STEP 1 Find yourself the right tools to measure the shape of your skull. Get a flexible tape measure, one used by the tailors.  STEP 2  Start by

measuring your forehead. Take the tape and measure the length of the area halfway between your eyebrows and your hairline. STEP 3 Place the tape across the part below the outer corner of

each eye and measure the width of your cheekbones.  STEP 4 Everyone has a jawline, even if it is not that clearly visible. Measure your jawline from the tip of your chin to below your ear at

the point at which your jaw angles upwards.  STEP 5 Lastly, try finding out the length of your face. Run the flexible tape from the center of your hairline to the tip of your chin.  Note

down the above-mentioned measurements and find out below which measurement combinations form which facial shape.  1. DO YOU HAVE A ROUND FACE? _The shape of your face is more likely to be
