Round face sesson

The Sesson haircut for medium hair in the classic version is not recommended for owners of a round face. Classic styling means symmetrical styling with straight or semicircular bangs. But with the owner of a round face, she will play differently if you make her asymmetrical or cut her bangs obliquely.

For a triangular face

Thanks to these possibilities of Sesson, the features of the triangular face become softer, the cheekbones are not so sharp.

For an oval face

For thick hair

Straight and thick hair is the key to a stylish Sesson. If you have a sufficiently thick hairline, no additional manipulations are required to create the perfect haircut. Thanks to the unique technique of execution, the strands always lie flat without long styling.

The thicker the hair, the more impressive the hairstyle looks. A bit of visual volume is additionally provided by the shape of the haircut - round. But if the hair is thin, it will be very difficult to achieve such an effect.

For thin hair

Stylists do not recommend such a haircut for owners of thin hair. But if you wish, even on such curls, you can make a quite good Sesson. This haircut cannot exist without volume, it loses all its charm.

Thin hair is deprived of this advantage, therefore, to create an attractive hairstyle, you will have to deviate a little from technology haircuts. More visual volume will help create strands of different lengths. Thinning or graduated Sesson can also help in this matter.
