Her World Hair Awards 2021: Best haircuts for every face shape

Where

Leekaja Beauty Salon, #03-13 Mandarin Gallery, tel: 8133-0818 Treatment Haircut with senior stylist Jun Park, from $70

What it is

Don’t be alarmed if Jun, who spent years working in top salons in Gangnam, Seoul, spends a good amount of time looking at your face – it’s his way of determining the most flattering cut for you. A thorough consultation follows to understand your lifestyle, how you like to wear your hair and so on.

Our tester says

“Despite its simplicity, the look isn’t boring – Jun added curtain bangs and told me the cut would look most flattering and soften my features once it grows past my cheekbones. I got such good feedback that I might cheat on my hairstylist and go to Jun for future haircuts.”

Where

Urban Hair, #03-01 Shaw Centre, tel: 6737-7813 Treatment Haircut with image director Clarence Teo, from $108

What it is

With more than a decade of experience, Clarence delivers trendy yet functional hairstyles. It shows in his spot-on analysis and recommendations to address our thick, frizzy hair and slightly odd head shape. The result is a light and bouncy cut that enhanced our hair texture and natural waves. We also loved the ingenious use of partitions in the salon that help maintain one’s privacy.

Our tester says

“I haven’t felt so confident with a new hairstyle in a long time. It’s an instant ego booster.”
