    My hair started falling out about 15 years ago and after desperate ways to comb and whatever, I decided to just shave it all off. To my amazement, even at the moment when I shaved it all off I realized how well it "balanced" with my face and instead of being shocked and having to "get used to it" over a period of time, I kinda liked it instantly. Ironically, only after I got rid of my hair, for the first time in my life, I started to get called "hot" and got x times more dates. That never happened, even before it had started thinning. Strange how it goes sometimes ...

    Cillian has a rectangular/diamond face shape and Timothee has a heart face shape. Their jaws compared to others are so wide that they give the illusion that they’re the widest parts of their face, but they’re not. In any picture of Timmy, it’s obvious his jaw is wide, but it’s not wider than his cheekbones or forehead that the jaw tapers up to. It’s a textbook heart shaped face.
    Cillian’s jaw is also wide but his cheekbones are wider. They’re the most prominent part of his face. His forehead and jaw are about the same width.
    The point is that for both of these men, their faces don’t expand the lower they go. They have wide jaws, but they’re not the widest parts of their faces. Not triangular.

He’s always disappointed in how his hair ends up cut.

      What kind of balding? I got the widows peak coming in and can just push it back into a middle part and I’m happy. It’s a little different if it’s male-pattern baldness. At that point your options are try propecia or minoxidil like the other guy said, go to turkey and get a hair transplant, or embrace it.

    What am I suppose to do with an incongruent heptagonal face shape or a parallelogram face shape?

    What if you have a combination of face shapes? which aspects should you focus on? for instance, I have a slightly longer face with a big jaw

    I either grow my hair to non manageable lengths or go buzz.
    Nothing in between.
