Best hairstyles for round face shape

Round faces have similar width and length with full cheeks and a rounded chin. The goal is to add angles and elongate the face.

How to identify a round face

  • Face width and length are nearly equal
  • Full, rounded cheeks
  • Soft, rounded jawline
  • Rounded chin without sharp angles

Styling tips

Add height on top and keep sides shorter to create the illusion of length. Angular styles work best.

What to avoid

Avoid chin-length bobs that emphasize width, and very short cuts without volume on top.
