Round Compared with Similar Shapes
Oval faces show more length and a clearer taper. Round and square can share similar proportions; the deciding clue is usually a curved rather than angular jaw.
Hairstyles for a Round Face
For a longer appearance, consider controlled crown height, layers below the chin, side parts, textured quiffs, or side-swept fringe. Side volume can emphasize fullness when that suits your goal.
