How to Pick a Hairstyle by Face Shape
The rule: balance your face shape. Round → length and top volume. Square → soft waves to soften the jaw. Long → side weight and bangs.
Round: long layers, side-part curls, high ponytail
Square: soft middle-part waves, curtain bangs
Long/oblong: bobs with bangs, tousled short hair
Oval: suits almost anything
Heart-shaped: curtain or see-through bangs help soften a wider forehead
If unsure of your own face shape, take a straight-on photo and compare the outline, or ask your stylist to check in person before the cut.

2026 Korean Women's Hair Trends
2026 favors long soft waves with curtain and see-through bangs, plus minimal sleek bobs and glossy voluminous curls. Expensive-looking but DIY-friendly styles lead, and event/graduation updos stay strong.
Many of these styles trace back to Korean dramas and music acts that remain popular in Thailand, especially among younger clients, so most local stylists already recognize them and can replicate the look without trouble.
Thailand's heat and humidity make hair oily faster and more prone to frizz, so lighter styles and humidity-resistant products such as an anti-frizz spray tend to hold up better here than heavy styling creams.
Hair and scalp care: Whatever style you pick, a healthy scalp and healthy hair are the foundation of any look holding up well. If you style with heat often, a heat-protectant spray helps reduce damage, and if you notice unusual hair loss or thinning, talk to a pharmacist or dermatologist before choosing a treatment.
How often you wash matters for how well a style holds, an oily scalp usually needs a daily or every-other-day wash, while dry hair does fine with two to three washes a week. A weekly hair treatment can reduce split ends and add moisture, especially for hair that goes through frequent curling or straightening.
If you use styling products often, clean the scalp thoroughly to stop the build-up that leads to dandruff, and before using a straightener or hot dryer, apply a heat-protectant spray every time to reduce long-term damage.
Before You Perm or Color Your Hair
Before every perm or hair-color session, do a patch test on the skin as directed on the product label, since the chemicals in the solution can trigger an allergic rash or scalp irritation. If your hair has already been bleached or chemically straightened, tell your stylist, since repeating a chemical process on already-damaged hair can cause more breakage and shedding. Leave enough time between chemical treatments for the hair to recover.
