There are three types of hairstyles: those with center parts, no part and side parts. Slight variations either add width or height and in some cases both. In even the flattest of hairdos some height may be given by an upward line or curve.
In all these top treatments, not only should there be an upward lift but a forward line as well. By forward I mean that there is a slight projection of the hair over the forehead. There should always be a slight bulge over the forehead-sometimes no more than a thirty-second of an inch, at other times as much as a half-inch. Don't ever forget this rule. In short, the top of your head is a factor which must be considered by itself.
THE CENTER PART: When deciding what to do with the top of your head, remember that anyone can wear a center part, anyone can wear a side part, anyone can wear no part. The part is simply the axis on which the hairdo revolves.
Using a center part is not subject to any restrictions. Contrary to the general belief, a woman does not have to be a classic beauty to look well in this style. The only considerations to bear in mind when choosing a center part are: are you going to give the top of your head a great deal of height; are you going to keep the top flat; or are you going to give the top of your head some width?
A combination of any two of these three things can also be used. You can keep the top of your head flat and bring out some width, or you can keep the top high and also bring out width. Many different hairstyle ideas are possible.
When wearing a center part, sometimes the curls are made right up close to the part, to give height. Sometimes the hair is simply shaped and combed into a higher direction to add height. At other times the curls are made away from the part with a slight combing up of the hair to give height. This last method lends a maximum of width with a minimum of height.
SIDE PARTS: The side on which you part your hair has no bearing on changing the shape of your lace. Use the side which will cause your hair to stand up more. You may have found that when you part your hair on one side it will lie down flatter, making it difficult to give the hair that upward line so necessary to most faces.
While your hair is wet, first part it on one side, comb your hair to the other side, and see if it tends to have a lift above the forehead. If that side doesn't have it, part it on the other side and do the same thing. One of them is sure to have it.
The most popular side part for height is one that starts low at the side and goes up toward the crown. To test whether or not your hair is parted at the correct angle, look straight-on at your mirror, after you've given your hair the necessary lilt. If you don't see the part it is correct.
NO PART: A hairdo with no part gives your face the most length plus width. An extreme forward bulge of the hair shortens the face.
BANGS OR FRILLS: Bangs or frills can do all sorts of pleasant things for the face and features, depending on how they are styled. They dramatize the eyes, deepening their color. They can soften a thin or sharp face; they camouflage a forehead that is too high or too low for your liking.
If your face is short, so that you feel you cannot cut its length further by wearing frills or bangs, you may wear a perfectly straight bang with a slight bulge before coming down over the forehead curving at the corners. This adds length.
Take your time to consider all possible hairstyle ideas and decide on the best hairstyle for you.
