Styles: For this face shape you need styles that lengthen the face, so it appear slimmer.
You can go short with a round face as long as the sides move into the cheek area a bit.
Choose styles with short fringe which will lengthen the face. Cuts with bangs, face-framing sides and a little extra length are perfect.
Long layered cuts will frame the face, making it appear slimmer... when worn up, they add a sense of height!
Hairstyles that have height at the top of the head and are flat at the sides of the head (preferably covering the sides of the cheeks) are a good choice as they will enhance the perceived length of your face.
You should try to wear your hair below the chin line and try styles with a face-lengthening center parting. For hair above the chin line, wear an off-center parting to reduce the appearance of a roundly symmetrical shape.
Colour you sexy: Talk to your stylist about low lights at the side of the face and lighter highlights at the top of the head to create the illusion of lustrous length.The goal is to create an oval appearance and lift the face.
- Keep the sides close to the face and promote height at the crown.
- Looking for a classic modern style, a layered shag is the perfect shape for a round face.
- For short shape, close sideburn wisps soften and flatter the face.
However, you must take into consideration your facial features.
If natural curly, wavy, straight, make it part of your style. Your facial shape is only the starting point.
Don't :
- Curly styles with lots of width on the sides only bring attention to a full round face. Styles that are swept or slicked back will also emphasize roundness, so it's best to avoid them.
- You should be careful with fringes, since these can further shorten the appearance of the face.
- It's best to avoid short and sleeked-back hairstyles and straight-falling bangs.
- Avoid square or round frames that will accentuate facial roundness.
