What kind of hat is suitable for a man with a round face. How to choose the right fur and mink hat
It is difficult to imagine an autumn or winter wardrobe without such a necessary piece of clothing as a hat. Hats come in various styles, from different materials and all kinds of colors, their choice is huge, but it is not always possible to choose a headdress in such a way as to look good in it. To choose the right hat, you must first proceed from the type of your face. Today we will look at the round face type, as well as tell you which hats are best for him. Examples with photos can be found below.
Basic rules for choosing a headdress for chubby girls
First of all, it should be remembered that the hat should visually stretch the round face, reduce its volume, and not make it even more round. In order to cope with this task, the size and height of the headgear are first of all important. Therefore, to begin with, you should list hats that are not suitable for this type of face because of their size or shape:
- Small tight hats.
- High fur hats.
- Headphone hats, knitted and fur headbands
- Berets and caps "pills" (flat)
Best hats for round faces
Suitable hats for women with a round face are hats that visually narrow the face. Such hats should be high-fitting, open the forehead and in no case should fit the head. Hats, caps with a small visor, voluminous berets with a hanging bottom will look good.
Winter hats for women with plump cheeks
Winter hats for chubby women can be knitted, while the knitting should be large or with a fairly voluminous pattern, but not too much so as not to aggravate the situation and give the face even more volume. A knitted hat with a pompom on top will also look very good. Don't be afraid of the pom-pom. The fact that a headdress with such a detail is only suitable for very young ladies is a stereotype that should be destroyed long ago.
Snood is still in trend
A stylish idea is snood, which has been in trend for more than one season. A trumpet cap creates the necessary volume around the head, leaving the forehead completely open, thereby visually reducing and making the face narrower. Therefore, such hats are very suitable for women with a round and wide face.
Shawls and scarves: knitted, down or fabric
You can consider shawls and scarves, which are back in fashion and are becoming very popular. They can be knitted, downy or fabric. The color of this accessory must be matched to the complexion. Shawls and scarves are a universal accessory with which you can correct any type of face, using for each its own way of wrapping around the head.
Asymmetrical hats can also be considered, but the open forehead rule must be observed.
Hats with earflaps are also a good option to give your face a more elongated shape. They can be fur, knitted, leather-fur. The main thing is that they have a sufficiently high crown. See photo.
To create a stylish look with a hat, you need to combine other items of clothing. A hat with earflaps cannot be worn with a mink coat. A classic beret with a down jacket in a sporty style is also little combined. The exception, perhaps, is knitted hats, which are suitable for all styles of outerwear, the main thing is to choose a product from a fairly large knit and choose a color.
How to choose the color of the headdress according to the color of the hair
The color of the hat, in principle, does not matter, but it must be combined with the color of outerwear and match the complexion. Otherwise, either the hat will look clumsy, or the face will become inexpressive and lost. There are several general rules for choosing the color scheme of a headdress depending on the hair color of its owner:
- For blondes, pastel colors (beige, peach, soft pink, milky) are ideal.
- Brunettes are best suited for cool or bright colors (blue, purple, fuchsia)
- Light brown is better to give preference to calm shades (gray, light green, blue)
- Bright and saturated colors (green, yellow, red), as well as all shades of brown, will go very well with redheads.
White color is universal for everyone. A headdress in this color will suit absolutely any woman.
By height and body type
When choosing a hat, height and type of figure play an important role. Full women of small stature will not fit small hats, as well as fragile and thin voluminous fur ones.
The hat should not only harmoniously fit into the image and visually eliminate the shortcomings of a round face, but also be combined with its features. Women with classic facial features will not go for extravagant asymmetrical hats. Girls with pronounced and sharply defined lines of the nose and cheekbones should avoid headwear with clear geometric shapes.
Well, and, of course, the choice of a hat should be determined by the temperature of the season for which this wardrobe item is bought, and the place of residence, since a hat is not so much a fashion accessory as a functional piece of clothing designed to keep your head warm.

There is a decent "minus" outside the window, which means it's time to think about a headdress. It is not in vain that many refuse to wear hats, believing that they do not suit them: the criteria for choosing a headdress are directly related to the geometry of the face.
Determine the type of face
So, let's first decide on the anatomical features: what shape of the face we will focus on - an oval, a circle, a triangle, a square, a rectangle, a rhombus or a pear. To do this, measure the length of the face from the tip of the chin to the hairline in the center of the forehead; width of the face - the distance between the cheekbones; the width of the forehead, as well as the segment from the chin to the angle of the jaw. The resulting data is correlated with the following parameters:
Round face: the length and width of the face are about the same, the chin and hairline near the forehead are rounded.
- Oval face: longer than wide, no sharp corners in the chin area.
- Rectangular face: longer than wide, the corners are not rounded, the width of the forehead and jawline are approximately the same.
- Square face: the width of the forehead and chin are approximately the same, the length of the face is equal to the width (the segment between the cheekbones).
- Triangular face: wide forehead, pronounced cheekbones and a pointed chin.
- Diamond-shaped face: the width of the forehead and the line of the chin are noticeably narrower than the distance between the cheekbones.
- Pear-shaped face: narrow forehead with a wide jaw line.
We select a hat according to the shape of the face
For an oval face
Lucky women with an oval face shape, which is considered the most symmetrical, can afford almost any headgear: from earflaps, low hats, peaked caps to berets, which are again at the peak of popularity. The latter, by the way, are best worn with an asymmetrical fit on the forehead. In general, this type of forehead is better to cover, and models like mountain hats and just high hats, which unnecessarily stretch the face in length, should be avoided.
For a round face
This type is shown headwear that opens the forehead and visually stretches the proportions of the face. Bulky knitted beanies and tall hats do the job. Vertical pattern and pompoms are also welcome. It is even allowed to take it, but on the condition that it will be worn without pulling it over the forehead. And hats, socks and similar tight-fitting models are contraindicated for this type of face.
For a rectangular face
To visually smooth out the angularity of the face and reduce its length, earflaps tied up, hats with a voluminous lapel, large-knit hats pulled down to the eyebrows, as well as caps and wide-brimmed hats will help to hide a high forehead.
For a square face
The task is partly the same as in the case of a rectangular face: soften the angularity plus visually stretch the face. In principle, square faces are quite proportional, with the exception of forms when the cheekbones or chin protrude too much. Hats-stockings, shifted back and opening the forehead, are perfect. Earflaps with lowered “ears”, models with hanging pompoms, and beanie hats with a rounded silhouette will also help divert attention from the massive chin line. In the list of contraindications - hats with a deep fit on the forehead.
For a triangular face
The basic rule for heart-shaped faces is to emphasize the cheekbones. Berets worn on one side or on the forehead, untied earflaps, dense bulky hats, asymmetrical cut hats are perfect. Tall hats and chunky knit caps are best avoided - they can add unnecessary volume to the top of the head.
For a diamond face
Owners of a similar face shape should focus on the cheekbones: the headdress should not be narrower, but rather wider than the distance between them. All kinds of caps, helsins made of thick yarn, knitted beanies, large-knit hats with a lapel or with fur pom-poms, knitted turbans are extremely welcome. Shawls and tight hats are not suitable for this type.
A hat is a necessary accessory for any wardrobe, but not everyone likes it. Many complain that hats, berets, knitted caps and snoods do not suit them at all. All these problems are solved simply - you need to choose a headdress that suits the type of face. And then it will not only warm in the cold, but also effectively complement any stylish look.
Face types. What are they and how do you define yours?
- Oval.
- Round.
- Rectangular.
- Square.
- triangular.
- Pear-shaped.
- Rhomboid.
This parameter is the most important when choosing a hat. After all, if you break the proportionality, then there is a risk of looking ridiculous. Hence the myths are born that hats spoil the appearance. But how to find out what type a person belongs to? Our tips will help you with this.
Determine the shape of the face
The easiest way to do this is with a measuring tape. Take a tape, pen and paper and take your measurements. Then you can find out your face type with an accuracy of up to a centimeter. To do this, you need to take only 4 measurements:
- face width. Measured from cheekbone to cheekbone - at the most protruding points.
- forehead width. Attach the centimeter tape to the center line of the forehead. Take a measurement from the beginning of the forehead to the level of the arch of the eyebrows.
- The length of the chin line. Measured from the chin to the angle of the lower jaw. The measurement taken must be multiplied by 2.
- The length of the face is a measure from the beginning of the forehead to the chin.
Now determining the type of face is very simple. You just need to correlate your measurements with the description and photo:
- Oval. Its length exceeds its width by 1.5 times. In this case, all the lines of the oval are rounded. There are no sharp corners, but the cheekbones are well defined.
- Round. The length and width of the face are equal. The chin is round, the cheekbones are wide. The forehead is not high, the jaw is narrow.
- Rectangular. This shape is often called elongated. All due to the fact that its length significantly exceeds
- Square. A square is formed if the length between the cheekbones matches the length of the face (or differs by a couple of centimeters). Cheekbones and jawline - clear, pronounced.
- triangular. The width of the forehead and cheekbones is large, and the chin is narrow. Therefore, this shape is often called a "heart".
- Pear-shaped. The forehead is much narrower than the length of the jaw line. In the area of the cheekbones, the face is wide. The length of the face is different.
- Rhomboid. The width of the cheekbones is greater than the proportions of the forehead and chin. The face can be of various lengths. Another name for this form is "diamond".
width. The forehead and chin are almost the same in width. The chin is elongated. Cheekbones - stand out, forehead - high.
How to choose a hat according to the type of face? A few practical tips
Oval
This form is considered ideal. Almost all styles go, but you need to beware of very tight berets. They visually “shift” the proportions and make the lower part of the face heavier.
The best options for oval face shapes are:
- Bulky berets.
- Classic style hats. Important: the crown should not be much wider than the cheekbones.
- Asymmetrical hats.
- Winter hat with earflaps.
- Cap-"sock", free and wide.

Circle
The task is to visually stretch the face. Therefore, it is better to choose voluminous hats or high models with pompoms. Ideal options with patterns directed vertically. The best styles for chubby girls:
- Knitted voluminous hats.
- Hats with a visor.
- High hats with narrow brim.
- Hats made of fur with ears that are best tied back.
- Fedor hats and caps.
Advice. In no case should you close your forehead. Headgear should not be overly tight on the head. "Landing" - asymmetric.

Square
The hat should soften the angular features. Another purpose is to lengthen the outlines. To achieve this, you need to abandon hats with a large pattern. Preference should be given to soft, rounded lines. The best hats for this type of appearance:
- "Bini".
- Beret.
- Hat with earflaps for the winter. The "ears" of the hat can be tied back or down.
- Kepi with a small visor.
- Models with "braids", pompoms, freely descending.
Advice. Kepi, berets and other hats should be slightly shifted to the back of the head to open the forehead. The arched edge will give an oval shape, and the open forehead will slightly stretch the silhouette.

Triangle
In this case, you need to focus on the cheekbones. It is better to cover the forehead. The main requirement for a hat is that it should not tightly fit the head. Most suitable models:
- Hats with small brim.
- Small berets, planted on the forehead or shifted to the side.
- Knitted hats. It is better to lower them on the forehead.
- Fur hats with earflaps with "ears" lowered down.

Rectangle
The hat should soften rough lines and visually reduce the elongation of the face. Low hats, the lapels of which are large, voluminous, will cope well with this task. It is better to wear them covering the forehead. The best models are caps and berets of medium volumes, as well as hats with wide brim and a small crown. No need to buy long and too "fluffy" hats.

Pear
By expanding the forehead line with a cap, you can improve the proportions, make them perfect. For this, different types of hats are suitable, the fields of which are even or raised up. Fedora, homburg, derby - a good choice. The main condition is that the crown is wider than the length of the chin line. Large patterns on hats, as well as snoods, also look good.

Rhombus
The “diamond” face looks great in caps of various styles. Flat-brimmed hats look elegant. The main condition is that they should create volume in the upper part of the head and be wider than the length of the cheekbones.

Helpful Hints:
- if you want to buy an expensive, say, seal or muskrat fur hat, but funds are limited, buy a rabbit hat, it is no worse than other fur, but much cheaper;
- so that the forehead does not itch under a knitted hat - do not raise the bangs;
- the spring model can also be chosen from fur, but rather decorated with it, rather than completely made of this material.
Photo - Knitted hats First of all, before choosing a hat, pay attention to its strength and ability to keep warm, and only then to the appearance and compliance with the trends of the season.
They say that we begin to grow up when we mature to the understanding that the head needs to be insulated. And this eternal grandmother’s “put on a hat, I told you” comes somewhere closer to 30. Of course, the hair in which the wind gets tangled and snowflakes settle looks very attractive, but this is only until the spring rages on the street. autumn bad weather or frost will not pinch. And then I remember my grandmother, and her touchingly funny, but such warm knitted hats.
Today we have grown, and hats too. They no longer perform only a warming function, but combine fashion, beauty, and cozy protection from the weather. If the hat is chosen correctly according to the type of face and is consistent with the general style of clothing, you can no longer worry about the absurdity of the headdress, always remaining stylish, fashionable, beautiful and healthy. Stylists will teach us to easily and quickly determine the type of face, and share professional secrets on how to properly fit your perfect knitted hat.
How to determine the type of face without rulers and centimeters?
Of course, you can arm yourself with the traditional cutter's working tools and measure your face to the millimeter, substituting the numbers into the formula to accurately determine your face type. But to choose a hat, there will be enough simple ways that do not require much time and effort. So:
Pull your hair back. Secure them at the back of your head with a hairpin. Take an old lipstick, stand in front of a large mirror and circle the reflection of your face along the contour on its surface. Visually determine which geometric shape the drawn outline reminds you of.
As in the first method, remove the hair from the face to the back of the head, and use the camera to take a selfie photo. Print the picture on a regular printer and circle the face in the photo with a black or bright marker. Determine your face type by the contour of the figure.
How to choose the right knitted hat according to the type of face?
Oval face type
This is a universal type of face, since almost any model of hats suits it. The only taboo that stylists warn about is caps that visually stretch the face. Therefore, too high styles of hats and headwear made of thin knitwear will not suit you. As a rule, oval and round face types have soft features formed by smooth lines and arcs. Therefore, both in the hat itself and in the texture, texture and decor, there should be soft, oval and round elements without sharp lines and transitions. Volumes and smooth reliefs are welcome.
If you have an oval face, you can opt for the following knitted hats:
round face type
The goal of looking for a headdress for a round face is to find a hat that will visually lengthen the head. The model of a knitted hat should be vertical, due to which the face will appear to be the correct oval shape. The lines in the decorative elements on the hat, jewelry and weaving should not be sharp and torn. These tricks visually “pick up” round cheeks, stretching the face. If you are the owner of a round face, pay attention to the following models of knitted hats:
Square face type
Your face type is formed by straight, pointed and sharp features - a well-defined jaw, a bulky chin, wide cheekbones or temples. Therefore, the main goal of the headdress is to visually narrow, smooth and soften sharp lines. Ideal for you will be:
Triangular face type
A person with a wide forehead, an extended temporal part and a pointed triangular chin is called a heart-shaped face. You can make it proportional with the help of hats, which will divert attention from the top of the head, focusing it on the eyes and the middle part of the face. An unforgivable mistake for a triangular shape will be voluminous knitted hats, earflaps, bulky berets. Such models will make the face small and inconspicuous. For the "heart" stylists call the ideal option:
