I discovered what is the best haircut for round faces.
Knowing the shape of your face is key to choosing a flattering haircut. Whether or not a haircut works for your face can make a dramatic difference to your appearance.
The right style will balance your proportions, highlight your best facial features, and make you look more photogenic.
While many women with round faces feel that their haircut options are limited, that is not the case – there are a wide variety of styles you can rock that will make you look amazing!
Side swept beach waves
Side swept beach waves are not only super sexy and glamorous, but they also combine some of the most flattering hairstyle elements for round faces.
Longer hair helps balance the width of a round face, while sweeping hair to the side makes your face appear narrower. Meanwhile, the loose, beachy waves help draw attention downward, making her face appear longer.
Bulky lob
It may seem counterintuitive, but a short, voluminous hairstyle can be very flattering for round faces and is ideal for those with naturally thick hair.
A textured lob cut is a great option as the layers and waves fall below the chin, which means your face will look longer and narrower.
Asymmetric lob
Dynamic haircuts, like an asymmetrical lob, look fantastic on round faces as they visually ‘cut off’ the face, making it look around two-thirds of its usual width.
The angles of an asymmetrical lob also contrast beautifully with the plump cheeks, while the longest part of the haircut draws attention downward to draw attention away from the jawline.
Bob with straight side part
While women with round faces are generally advised to avoid super straight or short haircuts, the straight side part bob is the exception to the rule. Due to the way your hair falls out, your face will appear narrower. And even though the cut is shorter than a lob, it still falls below her chin, making her face appear longer.
