You have a classic round face if the width of your face at your cheekbones is roughly the same distance as the length of your face. The difference between a round face and a square face (which also measures the same across as long) lies in the angles. Square faces have strong, angular features, whereas a round face has soft features.
You likely have soft, non-angular features and "chubby" cheeks. You may find you have more of a round face when you carry extra weight, but keep in mind many classic round-faced women are super-skinny and still have non-angular features.
Styles That Work Best on a Round Face
Typically, if you have a round face, you want to make your face appear longer and leaner and less round. To do this, create less volume around the face.
Try cuts that fall just below the chin like the long bob hairstyle. Soft, graduated layers like the ones found in this shoulder-length hairstyles gallery are a great bet because they make your face appear slimmer and tend to remove bulk and weight from the sides. Consider wispy and tapered ends like Rihanna's bob hairstyle. The wisps de-emphasize the roundness of your face. Bang hairstyles are flattering, but keep them long or side-swept.
Styles to Avoid if You Have a Round Face
Avoid one-length, blunt cuts such as
the classic bob hairstyle if you have short hair. Curly, short hair is also a no-no. Grow your curls out to shoulder-length or beyond or flat iron them (see "
How to use a flat-iron").
