Find The Right Hat

A hat for a windy day or just to through on in a hurry can help you through your day. You really want to look good though. To choose a hat that is right for you, you must take your face shape into consideration. There are many types of hats out there today, this article will help you find the hat for your face shape.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Find a Hat for an Oval Face.

    Finding a hat for an oval face shape is easy. Virtually any hat will accentuate this face shape. If you have an oval face shape, you can literally get out of bed and throw on any hat and look good.

  2. Step 2

    Find a Hat for a Round Face.

    A round face shape does not need to look more round. Find a hat with a large brim and a high crown. These features in a hat will help elongate your face shape and even out the roundness.

  3. Step 3

    Find a Hat for a Long Face.

    A wide brim on a hat will shorten your features if you have a long face. Don't choose a hat that is too tall in the crown or it will cause your face to look longer. Choose a hat such as a Newsboy Cap.

  4. Step 4

    Find a Hat for a Heart Shaped Face.

    Find you a hat that has a small brim or no brim, such as a cowboy hat or a beanie. This will help your jaw line to appear wide. If you get a large brimmed hat it will make your jawline look too thin.

on 8/6/2009 Very clever, I think I have a long face but I'm not positive, what do you think? I know I have a long neck, lol? So I'd probably have to go for the hat that has the wide brim on it. Some basball caps look good on me, just depends I guess.
