2. Customizing for Your Face Shape & Hair Texture
Welcome to Part 2 of my salon guide on Boho Wedding Hair Vine, Vintage Style Grecian Gold.
Every head of hair has its own density, cowlicks, and wave pattern.
Here is how I adjust the proportions behind the chair.

Matching Layers & Tones to Your Features
For a more structured look, try adding a few strategically placed bobby pins to secure the braids.
For a more relaxed look, let the braids fall loose and add a few soft, wispy tendrils framing the face.
For a more dramatic look, try adding a few strategically placed curls or waves to the braids.
For a more understated look, keep the curls and waves to a minimum and focus on the loose, effortless braids.
Take a moment to review the proportions, textures, and timing notes on this page so each step adapts effortlessly to your own routine.
Preparing your core essentials and workspace before you begin ensures smooth, consistent results from start to finish.
✂️ Face-Shape & Density Quick Match
- Fine-to-Medium Strands: Keep perimeter weight blunt and add micro-ribbons around the face for visual fullness.
- Thick or Wavy Hair: Use internal slide-cutting to release weight so waves stack without triangle bulk.
- Warm vs. Cool Skin Undertones: Pair golden-olive skin with honey, caramel, or espresso glosses; pair cool undertones with champagne, ash, or mocha ribbons.
