Hairdressers Livingston, Hair By Sarah’s essential guide for choosing the best hairstyle for a round face.

If you’re putting off getting that special haircut because you think you need to lose weight, then worry no more. An illusion can be created to transform your look.

So what is the best hairstyle for a round face?

Well, the first thing we need to conduct, is an analyses of your face shape. This is an important stage.

Why is this so important?

In short, if the hairstyle is wrong for your face shape, the result will be a disaster. In fact, even if well executed, a hairstyle and cut that does not match the format of the face, the result will still be a disaster, as the cuts and hairstyles must be blended with the geometry of the face to give you a perfect frame around your face, and to bring balance and perspective to the overall shape.

Objective:

The cut and style for your face shape should:

Minimize non pleasing attributes. Promote the positives and complement. There is a general rule that applies to face shape and balance, and  what you want to try to achieve is an oval, which is the most perfect and pleasing to the human eye. To do this, we need to shorten the long faces and widen faces  that need elongation.

Suitable Hairstyles:

Hairstyles with height will give the illusion of a face shape slimmer.
Long hair or those who stay close to the cheeks without volume looks better.
When wearing a fringe it should be swept aside.
Short hairstyles do not help stifle small round faces.

Hairstyles to Avoid:

Hairstyles that add volume to the sides, such as a bob cut at the chin.
This short haircut will add width to the side, which is exactly what should be avoided.

For medium length hair curly:

Ask your stylist for some choppy layers used on the back and bottom of your hair to give it some shape and
attractiveness. Whether your hair is long or short, if you are prone to a wave or curl, avoid at all costs ends with a bubble cut or rounded.

For straight hair:

The golden rule to remember is that round faces need a style that has more pieces to fall on your face to lengthen your cheeks. A graduated bob cut on the face and higher in the back would look good.

Long hair for round faces:

Long hair with soft layers for a round face shape, and making your hair straight hair would look fabulous.
