A bouncy bob can help deemphasize the triangle of a heart face, which is why you can opt for one that reaches below the jaw because it would fill in the area around your chin. To deemphasize the triangle more, you can give your hair a bit of body with some volumizing spray like the Phytovolume Actif Volumizing Spray.

{ Deep Side Part }

If you prefer long tresses, they work at filling in the area around your chin too, but the trick is to add a deep side part to draw attention to your eyes and the upper part of your face. Deep side parts do the annoying thing of constantly falling in your eyes, so secure those bangs with a hairspray like the Aveda Control Force Firm Hold Hairspray.

{ Long Layered Waves }

Long hair can also be layered to work on heart faces. Since heart faces tend to be wider in the middle and narrower at the bottom, layered locks will give you shorter pieces that fall between your ears and nose to offset the wider part. You can also use the waviness to fill in the area around your chin. However, any waves should be restricted to below the ears because volume at the top would only make the point of your chin more obvious. You can achieve natural waves by using a beach spray like the Oribe Apres Beach Wave and Shine Spray.
