Every question shifts your recommendation. Here's the full list - same order as the live quiz above.
Oval, round, square, heart, long / oblong, or not sure. Face shape is the single biggest predictor of which lengths and silhouettes will flatter you.
Straight, wavy, curly, or coily / tight curl. Texture decides which cuts hold their shape and which fight against you every morning.
Wash and go, some styling (5-10 min daily), or happy to put in time. The maintenance level rules out cuts that demand more effort than you'll actually give them.
Short (above shoulders), medium (shoulder-length), long, or flexible. Length is the most visible part of the change - and the part friends will comment on first.
Classic / timeless, edgy / modern, soft / romantic, trendy / of-the-moment, or easy / sporty. Vibe is the personality - it's why two people with the same face shape can want totally different cuts.
Pull your hair back, tie it up, and stand in front of a mirror. Look at the outline of your face - the silhouette is what you're matching to a cut.
Length is greater than width. Forehead, cheekbones, and jaw are roughly the same width, with a soft, rounded chin. Oval is the most "balanced" shape - it's why almost any cut works on it.
Length and width are roughly equal. Cheeks are the widest point, and the jawline is soft. Cuts that add vertical length (long layers, lobs, side parts) are the most flattering.
Length and width are similar, like round, but the jawline is strong and angular. Soft, layered cuts and waves break up the geometry; blunt cuts at the jaw reinforce it.
Wider at the forehead, narrower at the chin (sometimes with a defined widow's peak). Cuts that add fullness around the chin - chin-length bobs, soft waves, lobs - balance the silhouette.
Length is significantly greater than width, with relatively straight sides. Bangs and shoulder-length cuts add visual width and prevent the face from looking even longer.
Use these as starting points - the quiz will narrow them down further based on your texture, lifestyle, and vibe.

Two people can have the same face shape and the same length goal, and still need totally different haircuts - because their hair behaves differently.
Holds blunt lines beautifully. Bobs, lobs, blunt bangs, and one-length cuts all look intentional because the hair lies flat against the cut. Layers add movement; over-layering can look thin.
Wavy hair is the most versatile - it works with nearly every cut, but tends to look best with light layering and a length that lets the wave actually form (chin to mid-back).
Wants a cut that respects the curl pattern rather than fighting it. Layered shapes that work with curl (curly-specific cuts, shags, layered shags) keep the hair from triangulating. Straight blunt bobs on curly hair almost always trigger triangle-shaped silhouettes.
For coily and tight-curl textures, protective styles - twists, braids, locs, bantu knots - protect length and reduce daily manipulation. The quiz includes these in the recommendations when texture is coily.
The most flattering haircut is the one you'll actually keep up with. Be honest about how much time you'll give it every morning.
You want a cut that air-dries well and doesn't need styling. Best bets: pixie cuts, lobs with natural texture, shag-style layers, tousled medium cuts, and any cut that works with your natural texture instead of straightening it.
You're willing to use a round brush, curling iron, or blow dryer most days. Almost everything is in play - layered cuts, soft waves, structured bobs, side-swept bangs. The quiz gives you the most variety here.
You want the styled, polished look every day - hollywood waves, blunt bangs that need a flat-iron, sleek lobs, glossy ponytails, sculpted updos. These cuts take 15+ minutes daily but reward the time with a high-impact look.
The number-one cause of "I hate my new haircut" is picking a cut from a photo of someone whose stylist did it, then trying to recreate it with a 6 a.m. routine. The maintenance question filters those mismatches out before you book the appointment.
Everything people ask before taking the haircut quiz for the first time.
Answer 5 short questions about your face shape, hair texture, daily styling time, length goal, and the vibe you want. The quiz maps your answers to 5 cut recommendations from Trimsy's hairstyle library, then lets you upload a photo to see each one rendered on yourself in seconds.
Pull your hair back, stand in front of a mirror, and look at the outline of your face. Oval is longer than wide with a soft chin. Round is roughly as wide as it is tall, with full cheeks. Square has a strong jaw. Heart is wider at the forehead and narrows to the chin. Long (oblong) is noticeably longer than wide with a flat, even side.
Round faces are flattered by cuts that add length and create vertical lines: long layers, lobs (long bobs), angled bobs, and side-parted styles with face-framing pieces. Avoid blunt one-length cuts at chin level - they emphasize roundness. Side-swept bangs work better than blunt fringes.
Square faces benefit from soft, layered cuts that round out a strong jaw: long layers, soft waves, side-swept bangs, choppy lobs, and tousled medium-length styles. Avoid blunt bobs or sharp lines at the jaw - they reinforce angular geometry. Soft texture is your best friend.
Oval is the most balanced face shape, which means almost everything works - pixie cuts, bobs, lobs, long layers, shags, blunt bangs, side-swept bangs, ponytails, updos. Pick based on hair texture, lifestyle, and the vibe you want, not face-shape limits.
Heart-shaped faces (wider forehead, narrower chin) are flattered by cuts that add fullness around the chin and jaw: chin-length bobs, layered lobs, side-swept bangs, soft waves, and tousled medium-length cuts. Avoid hair pulled tight at the crown - it exaggerates the wide forehead.
