When choosing the shape of frames, women strive to improve their appearance, emphasize their advantages, and hide some shortcomings. And for a man it is very important to find and emphasize his own style, status and image. A bright touch to a man's individual image is not an easy task, but if you know the features of the face and the rules, it is doable.
To select the right accessory, you should take into account your face shape and know some rules.
What's your style?
Try to describe your style in one word: elegant, casual or sporty... Do you most often wear a business (formal) suit or do you prefer an urban casual style, where you can freely wear shorts, a colored T-shirt and studded leather accessories?
The frame of glasses directly depends on the style and dress code of clothing. It is better to choose a universal model, because the accessory should be combined with a formal business suit, at a concert, and at a party and other events (stadium, meeting with friends, etc.).
Various shades of frames are trending: iridescence, prints and bright blue, red and neon tones. But for daily wear, it is better to purchase traditional black, brown, silver or golden shades.
Who prefers sporty style or bold decisions?, then they will fit narrow sports frames, which exist for different sports. They are loved by students, teenagers and creative individuals.
Basic rules for selecting glasses for men
To know which men's glasses to choose, let's first focus on the basic rules that need to be taken into account:
- Glasses should carefully hide any imperfections, for example, wide cheekbones, long nose, sharp chin, heavy jaw, etc.
- You definitely need to choose glasses that are not only beautiful, stylish, but also comfortable, because the health of your eyes will depend on this.
- The wrong shape of glasses will reduce the attractiveness of a man.
- The chosen frame of glasses should not follow the shape of the face.
- If you have wide-set eyes, then a wide or bright bridge (jumper on the nose) will successfully reduce them. A thin light bridge will help reduce the distance.
Important! There may be slight deviations with the width of the frame (narrower or slightly wider than the face), but with a large difference, especially with a small face, can dramatically worsen a man’s appearance.
How to determine your face shape?
After choosing a style, you should decide on the shape of your face.
Visual method
The most basic way is to go to the mirror, then pull your hair back (if your bangs cover your forehead), and use lipstick to outline the contours of your face.
Mathematical
Carefully examine your image, although there is a mathematical method where you should calculate the ratio of the width and height of the face, etc.
Advice! Even if you know your face shape, trying on glasses is a must.The same glasses will look different on men with the same face shape.
Many factors are important: style, face types, hairstyle, hair color, eyes and skin tone.
Selection of glasses for all face shapes
Let's look at each form.
Oval face
The most proportional face with softly curved jaw lines. Correct smooth lines are ideal, but rare.
Here you can choose almost any frames: wayfarers, aviators or round ones. But narrow models are not recommended.
Advice! If a man’s features are soft, then choose a rounded frame, and if he has sharp features, choose a strict and clear frame.
Round
For those with a wide forehead, full cheeks and a round chin, narrow frames, square or wayfarers, are perfect. For a full face, you can choose the right frame shape, changing the entire look.
Important! It is absolutely impossible to wear the same shapes, for example, with a round face, similar glasses.
Square
Men have a pronounced square chin, as well as a very wide forehead of a similar shape.
Recommended frames: round, narrow semicircular, aviators and wayfarers. Please note that the frame should have a massive top and a round bottom, necessarily wider than the “corners” on the face in order to soften the shape.
Rectangular and square ones are not suitable (they repeat the type of face).
Triangular
If you have wide cheekbones but a narrow forehead, then it is better to choose original steampunk glasses. They are almost round, but with an elongated upper arc.
Medium frames that are vertically elongated but with rounded shapes look good. The arms can be bright or contrasting to distract attention.
Diamond-shaped
This type has a narrow forehead and chin with wide cheekbones.
Stylists recommend glasses: aviators (“droplets”) and rectangular round shapes.
But square models are not suitable.
Rectangular
An elongated face with wide cheekbones and forehead can be softened by soft rounded frames.
Heart-shaped face (inverted triangle)
This type has a wide forehead and cheekbones, but a narrow chin.
For men with this shape, it is better to choose narrow rectangular and round frames, as well as aviators.
Avoid heavy and massive frames.
