To style, use a volumizing spray like Big Sexy Hair Root Pump Plus and a round brush for blow-drying. A leave-in conditioner such as It’s a 10 Miracle Leave-In Lite can keep the hair smooth and manageable.
Feathered Layers
Feathered layers add softness and dimension to a diamond face shape. This style enhances the cheekbones and creates a balanced look, making it perfect for those who want a light, airy feel to their hair.
Maintain this style with a feathering razor or thinning shears, and use a lightweight mousse like John Frieda Volume Lift Air Whipped Foam to add volume without weight. A good quality hairbrush such as the Wet Brush Pro Flex Dry can help keep the layers looking smooth.
Voluminous Curls
Voluminous curls are an excellent choice for adding bounce and fullness to a diamond face shape. The curls soften the angles and bring a lively, dynamic feel to the overall look.
Use a curl-enhancing cream like Moroccanoil Curl Defining Cream and a diffuser attachment for your hairdryer, such as the DevaCurl DevaFuser, to maintain the curl pattern. A lightweight hairspray like Aussie Mega Hairspray can help hold the curls in place.
Short Bob with Side Part
A short bob with a side part is a chic and modern haircut that suits a diamond face shape. The side part helps soften the forehead, while the short length adds a contemporary edge to the look.
Use a smoothing serum like Kenra Platinum Silkening Gloss to keep the hair sleek, and a flat iron like the BaBylissPRO Nano Titanium for a smooth finish. Regular trims every six to eight weeks will maintain the bob’s shape.
Long Hair with Subtle Layers
Long hair with subtle layers adds movement and dimension to a diamond face shape. The layers prevent the hair from looking too heavy and create a balanced, flowing look.
To maintain this style, use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner like Pureology Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner and a lightweight hair oil such as OGX Renewing Argan Oil of Morocco to keep the hair smooth and shiny.
Choppy Bob
A choppy bob is a trendy and edgy haircut that complements a diamond face shape. The choppy layers add texture and volume, creating a playful and modern look.
Use a texturizing spray like Ouai Texturizing Hair Spray and a pomade such as R+Co Dart Pomade Stick to define the choppy layers. Regular trims every six weeks will keep the bob looking sharp.
Soft Layered Cut with Highlights
A soft layered cut with highlights adds dimension and depth to a diamond face shape. The layers frame the face beautifully, while the highlights add a touch of brightness and contrast.
To maintain this look, use a color-protecting shampoo like Redken Color Extend Magnetics Shampoo and a deep conditioning mask such as Pureology Strength Cure Superfood Treatment to keep the hair healthy and vibrant.
Classic Pixie with Long Bangs
A classic pixie cut with long bangs is a bold and stylish choice for a diamond face shape. The long bangs add softness to the forehead, while the pixie cut highlights the cheekbones and jawline.
