You never know how to style your hair or how to wear makeup because of your big forehead? You don’t have to cover it up: but take inspiration from the looks of these 5 stars!
The big forehead is a very common character for both men and women. For women, however, especially those with little hair, it could be a problem because they risk looking bald even if they are not. For this reason, many of them tend to cover her with ad hoc hairstyles and make-up.
In our opinion, the big forehead is a particular sign like many others: a pronounced chin or a French nose, in short, a characteristic feature that distinguishes us. Hiding it all the time is certainly a shame; for this reason, we have decided to tell you some little tricks to cover it, but also some suggestions to show it without fear.
The hairstyles to hide the big forehead
The first idea we all have when we think of a big forehead that needs to be hidden is undoubtedly the bangs and in fact, we are not wrong. The fringe is super suitable for those who have this characteristic, in fact, in addition to hiding the defect, it covers the hairline and highlights the eyes, bringing all the attention to them and improving the harmony of the face. A second solution very similar to the bangs is the side tuft. It too manages to give balance to the face by covering part of the forehead. It can be more or less long, with a line that is not necessarily clear: for example, in this case, even a disheveled effect looks very good. The line, if done on the part where the receding hairline is less visible, improves the final hairstyle.
Often, mistakenly, the middle part is excluded from the hairstyles useful for those with a high forehead; Unlike what we believe, the hair that falls on the sides of the face is able to give an excellent balance to the face, partially hiding the forehead, without completely covering it. The advice is to climb the first strands and make sure that they are short near the eyes. The final effect is super suitable for those with a high forehead.
The make-up to hide the big forehead
Experts on the subject, including Clio, Make up, suggest that the great ally for those with a high forehead is definitely contouring, a technique that through the use of light and dark colors gives new proportions to the face. In our case it is necessary to apply some earth starting from the hairline, along all sides of the forehead, then contrasting in the center with light colors (powder or foundation according to our manual skills) and finally, adding the highlighter only and exclusively in the center of the face on the cheekbones, chin, and jaw.
The eyebrows also play an important role: those with a big forehead do not run the risk of weighing down the face, so yes to thick and thick eyebrows and yes to dark eye shadows on the eyes.
Another great tip is to use lipsticks of strong colors and accesses so as to bring all the attention to the lips and look away from the forehead.
