Glossary


 
Oval

Oval - many choices

As its name implies, the oval-shaped face is longer than wide, with a jaw that is narrower than the cheekbones.  Because the oval shaped face has no dominant areas and is so proportional, this face looks good with just about any hairstyle, length or texture,




Round

Round - avoid width

The round-shaped face has a wide hairline and fullness below the cheekbones. The client may be overweight and the neck may appear short. A geometric or linear style looks very good. Add height and long wispy sides to make the cheeks look narrow.  Sides and nape comb close.




Diamond

Diamond - reduce width at sides

The diamond-shaped face has a narrow chin and forehead with wide cheekbones. Diamond shaped faces need narrow sides and fullness at the chin. Bobs work very well. Avoid height on top or volume on the sides. Use some fringe or bangs to cover narrow forehead.




Heart

Heart - add volume at chin

The heart-shaped face is characterized by a wider forehead and a narrower chin. Bring some hair onto the forehead to disguise its width. Keep hair close to the head at the eyes but make it slightly full around the jaw, and below and in front of the earlobes.




Pear

Pear - add volume above jaw line

The pear-shaped face is characterized by a small or narrow forehead and a rather large pouchy-appearing jaw line. Comb hair to add width from the eye level through the crown of the head. Set and comb hair close to the head on the sites and at the nape.




Oblong

Oblong - add softness

The oblong-shaped face has a long and narrow bone structure. An oblong facial shape often has a long, thin neck. Use a fringe or half-bang across the forehead by creating the soft waves or curls in the crown or nape areas. This helps to create the illusion of an oval.

Gabor Next

A designer collection exclusively for salons featuring a dramatic array of the Gabor PLUS colors.

Gabor PLUS Colors
A stunning collection of 24 salon-inspired colors, the Gabor PLUS color line was conceived using “Tone-on-Tone” colors which subtly progress from a front that is infused with brilliant highlights and lowlights to a slightly deeper and richer hue at the nape.


Personal Fit Cap

Offering the latest in unique, state-of-the-art wig construction, the Personal Fit™ Cap is the ultimate in light comfort and dependable fit.  The wide stretch lace used in most of today's wigs is replaced with a thinner, more resilient stretch material that actually molds to the shape of the head for a lighter, more secure fit. The result is a cap that feels so natural and comfortable, you'll think it was custom made to fit your personal head shape!


Comfort CapTM Collection

The Comfort Cap™ was created to provide increased lightness and airflow to the top of the head.  All Comfort Cap™ wigs have a wide velvet Comfort Band™ across the front for added security from slippage and to prevent friction.  The netting on top is replaced by two or three cotton lace strips, providing a lighter, more comfortable feel and improved air circulation to keep the scalp cool.


Traditional Collection

The Traditional Collection offers fashionable styling with the quality workmanship and attention to detail that is the TRADITION of Gabor.
