1. High Cheekbones
If you have high cheekbones like the goddess Song Hye Kyo, a fringe may not be the best choice for you. When the soft fringe covers the forehead, the cheekbones become more prominent, throwing off the overall balance of the face. This face shape already has strong, three-dimensional features. A fringe will weaken this natural advantage and make you look less harmonious. Try a side part or a center part instead. These styles can subtly edit the cheekbones and make the overall look softer and more balanced.
While Song Hye Kyo is undoubtedly beautiful, she looks even more stunning with a center part rather than a fringe.
Singer Ho Ngoc Ha, who also has high cheekbones and angular jawlines, looks better without a fringe.
2. Angular Face Shape
For those with angular face shapes, a fringe can make your features look harsher. After getting a fringe, the forehead is covered, emphasizing the strong lines of the lower half of the face. If your face looks angular and sharp, opting for a center or side part can soften the features and add a touch of elegance and softness.

3. Forehead Shorter Than Face Length
If you have a relatively short forehead, a fringe will only make your face appear narrower. The fringe visually shortens the forehead, making an already small face look even more compressed. In this case, consider a center part to lengthen the proportions of your face and give the illusion of a wider forehead.

A fringe on a short forehead further reduces the length of the face.
4. Wide-Set Eyes
If you have eyes that are set wide apart, note that a fringe may not give you the desired effect. When the fringe covers the forehead, the visual focus naturally falls on the eyes, making the distance between them seem wider. This effect can disrupt the harmony of your face and take away from other attractive features. Opting for a center part can effectively shift the visual focus, creating a more balanced overall look and highlighting your unique facial features.
A fringe accentuates the wide-set eyes, drawing attention to this flaw.
5. Facial Features Concentrated in the Center
If your facial features are relatively concentrated in the center, with little space between them, a fringe may make your face appear compressed. When the fringe covers the forehead, it draws attention to the center of the face, creating a sense of compression and disrupting the natural balance.
For this face shape, a center part can effectively lengthen the facial features, making the overall look more harmonious and adding depth to the face.
Concentrated features in the center of the face, coupled with a fringe, draw attention to the center and make the face appear pulled back.
