I'm a 13 year old girl and I have a round face. So I was wondering what would be some good hairstyles?
Answer
BEST HAIRSTYLES FOR ROUND FACES:
Firstly, what is your hair type?
Medium to long curly hair? Ask your stylist for some choppy layers through the back and the bottom of your hair to give it some shape and sex appeal. Whether your hair is long or short, if it's prone to a wave or curl, avoid at all costs ending up with a rounded 'bubble cut'.
Straight hair? The golden rule to remember is that round faces need a style that has longer pieces that fall onto your face to lengthen your cheeks - making them look slimmer and your cheekbones more structured. Try a graduated bob cut on to the face and higher at the back. Alternatively, a choppy shag will suit your face shape.
Fringe options: Don't go near a short blunt fringe - it will only emphasise a round face. On the other hand, a long wispy fringe will look great and suit fine hair. And if your hair is thicker, a longer fringe that you can sweep to the side will lengthen your face.
⢠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.
Avoid
Chin length hair with a rounded line that mirrors faceâs circular shape. Center parts. Short-short crops, straight "chopped" bangs. Fullness at side of ears. A rounded haircut ending at the chin will certainly add weight to your face shape. Because the widest part of your face is at the cheeks and ears, you need to avoid having the fullness of the cut here as it will make your face appear wider.
Other round face celebrities include:
Ingrid Bergman, Roseanne Barr, Kate Winslet, Natalie Merchant, Drew Barrymore, Christina Ricci, Charlotte Church

More about round face hairstyles:
Parts
A side part with a sweeping fringe is the traditional recommendation for round faces. I must admit, it is my favourite part too â it is so feminine and it adds more dimension to the face with the different angles
A centre part can work well â it creates a balance between the roundness of the cheeks and the hairline. However I havenât seen this look actually done well often â the layers in the hair need to be just right, and the hair needs to be the right length.
Fringes
Side swept, longer bangs is the standard advice given to round faces, as they add dimension as well as flattering the face shape.
Round faces have always been warned off the straight bangs. However these need not be totally off limits â they just need to be a bit choppy at the ends, finishing just before they hit your eyes, and not too full. Alternatively, think of Audrey Hepburn, with her very short fringe. Remember that hers was also quite choppy, and not a straight line.
Long
Texturising and layering, slimming down hair round the face looks great â it reduces bulkiness around the face, allowing the face shape to shine!
Long layers are the perfect compliment â so sweeping and feminine!
Short
A really great style is one that is a little shorter at the back and a little longer at the front, hitting between the chin and the shoulder. This is a sexy, edgy look, with a great contrast between the face shape and hairline.
One thing to avoid with short hair is rounded bobs sitting at chin level â youa re not doing yourself justice with this hairstyle! Try growing it out a little to have it sitting a little lower, and getting the sides trimmed so there is less roundedness.
Curls
Loose, sweeping curls are hot! Avoid tight ringlets round the face â these just add bulk.
Keep them full around shoulder height and lower, and loose the bulk around the cheeks and you will have one sexy head!
Straight
If you have a round face and straight hair, I bet you have despaired at times, as straight hair has often been told it is âtoo severeâ for round faces. Well, again I disagree â you can certainly make straight hair work for you! Adding layers, shifting the part and going for asymmetric styles is where its at! Because round faces by nature very symmetrical in shape from all angles, they are complimented by asymmetric styles, regardless of whether they are curly or straight.
In an up-do
Have the hair fuller at the crown, and close to the head around the ear and cheek level. This balances the hair and face shape nicely! Think quiffs! Conversely, avoid volume at the sides â this will not do your face justice!
For something more casual, if you have a couple of waves in your hair, tie it in a loose, slightly tossled, low side bun. This is SUCH a sexy look â the loose waves create a gentle look, and the low bun gives a nice balance!
To make this style a little more striking, get a couple of bobby-pins and loosely pin the top half of your hair in the middle at the back, pushing the bobbyâs upward to add height. Then grab the rest and make the same bun.
Hope this helps :)

can i get some examples of cute medium length hairstyles that look good on people with round faces?
Q. im gonna get my hair cut, and i wanna get it done medium length, anyone have any pics of styles that look good on a round face?
Answer
Round faces can be difficult to cut for, What kind of round is your face,,, like seriously round or just full cheeks?
Find a celebrity with the same face shape as you, or a few of them, and follow the general styles that they do.
Consider the fact that celebrities tend to pay a lot for thier cuts, and ususally always get what will look good for them and their face shape... That and you are getting a 500$ concept cut for what?? 15.00, Sounds like a deal to me.
First thing though, I have a round-ish face (Mainly forhead), and I keep bangs and tend to have the hair around my face NOT framed. You don't want to close off your face, If that makes sense. Id say keep with bangs, don't frame your face too much, go straight around the face... Keep it about shoulder length, and add a few layers around the bottom (3-6 inches of the bottom, depending upon how much hair you have) that way a pony looks good and you can also style it down.)
