Having medium or long hair is great — that is, until the weather heats up and it all turns into a sweaty mess.
Since that whole “hair plastered to the back of your neck” thing isn’t a trend this year (dangit), why not try updo hairstyles instead? And not just any updo, but one perfectly suited for your face shape. After all, you got a haircut that perfectly flattered your face, why blow all that effort on a ponytail or bun that leaves your round face rounder or your square face squarey-er?

Step 2: Come on back to this gallery and click through to see the best and worst updos for your face shape.
Step 3: Style your hair in one of your “best” looks and, uh, skip the worst ones — but you probably knew that.
Step 4: Head outside and enjoy the feeling of the breeze on the back of your neck, and don’t forget your sunscreen.
