Let’s start off by stating a fact: There’s no “right” way to get a haircut. Hair is subjective and as long as you feel comfortable and confident in your look, there’s no other guidelines to follow! That being said, if you’re looking for round-face haircuts, you’ve probably thought about the best hairstyles for your face shape.
Even if there are styles you think you can’t “pull off” with a round face, it’s all about working with a good hairstylist. Celebrity hairstylist Justine Marjan, who has worked with the likes of Khloé Kardashian and Ashley Graham, echoes that your haircut should be a collaboration.
“The best haircut is one that makes you feel confident, so don’t ever let someone tell you that you can’t do a style you want because of your face shape,” she says. “A great hairstylist will be able to find a way to make your desired style work with your unique features, as there’s so much more to keep in mind than just face shape.”
If you’re looking for specifics, hairstylist Jennifer Korab says that her clients with round face shapes typically request the following styles: long layers, lobs, side swept bangs, shags, angled bobs, and asymmetrical bobs. These styles can “create the appearance of length and angles.”
“Adding height and volume at the crown helps elongate the face,” she says. “Side-swept or curtain bangs are ideal, as they draw attention to the eyes and cheekbones while softening facial curves, unlike heavy, blunt bangs. Layers add movement and texture, preventing hair from lying flat against the face. Longer styles that extend below the chin are particularly flattering, as they contribute to a more elongated look.”
