Edgar Cut + Heart Face: The Fringe Helps
A heart face wide forehead is exactly what the Edgar cut blunt fringe covers — the catch is keeping the fade low enough.

Face Shape Guide
Wide forehead tapering to a narrow chin
Add Volume Here: Jaw & temples
Width below the cheekbones balances the wider forehead.
Keep It Short Here: Forehead
Volume here accentuates the top-heavy shape — keep it light.

Why It Works
The Edgar cut blunt fringe sits straight across the forehead, and for a heart face — which is widest at the forehead — that fringe is genuinely useful: it covers and shortens the broad forehead, hiding the very area a heart face wants to play down. So the front of the cut works in your favor. The tension is at the sides. The Edgar trademark high skin fade strips the temples bare and broadens the upper third, which a heart face does not want. The balanced version keeps the fringe (it is doing good work) but drops the fade to low or mid so a band of hair stays at the temples. Adding stubble or a short beard fills out the narrow chin.
How to Style
- 01
Ask for an Edgar fringe at eyebrow level to cover the forehead.
- 02
Request a low or mid fade rather than a high skin fade.
- 03
Style the fringe flat and defined with a matte product.
- 04
Pair with stubble or a short beard for chin weight; refresh every two weeks.
Keep the helpful fringe but drop to a low or mid fade — a high fade strips the temples and widens a heart-face forehead.
On a heart face the Edgar fringe helps but the fade height can hurt. AI try-on lets you preview a low-fade Edgar against a high-fade one, with and without a beard, on your own face first.

Frequently Asked Questions
01. Does the Edgar cut suit a heart-shaped face?
The blunt fringe helps by covering a wide forehead, but keep the fade low or mid rather than high so the temples are not stripped bare and broadened.
02. Should a heart face avoid a high fade with an Edgar cut?
Yes — a high skin fade exposes the temples and widens the forehead. A low or mid fade keeps a band of hair that balances the upper third.
03. Does a beard help an Edgar cut on a heart face?
Yes — stubble or a short beard adds weight at the narrow chin, balancing the wide forehead that the fringe is already helping to cover.
