Fresh and simple is the main idea for this 'do. These medium-fine locks are smoothed down with a side part making this a great casual hairstyle to complement an oval face. Only a small amount of product is needed to tame fly-away hair and regular trims every 4-6 weeks will help prevent split ends.

Barbara Niven is looking gorgeous here in a layered, shoulder length hairstyle. She has an oval-shaped face with a rounded jaw line and strong cheekbones. It is the most proportioned of all face shapes and suits the widest variety of hairstyles. Ladies with an oval face can experiment with a variety of hair lengths and cuts too. Barbara tends to keep her hair in simple 'dos around the shoulders and this look is no exception. Here she is wearing a layered style that kicks out at the ends slightly which shows off her glowing skin and bright eyes. Her straightened locks look shiny, silky and healthy with this haircut, that can also be worn up for extra versatility.

As for her color, Barbara chooses to go for a wheaty platinum blonde tone that is ideal for her fair complexion and blue eyes. She is perfectly suited to hair colors that have a beige base to them just like this light blonde shade seen here. The all-over color is warm and vibrant and leaves her hair with a silky, shiny finish. Regular toner touch ups will ensure that the hair looks creamy blonde rather than brassy.
