The 25 Best Short Hairstyles for Round Faces
Lobs, bobs, and everything in between.

Thank the heavens above for giving you a perfectly symmetrical, rounded face. Attention: This is not another article you've landed on that will shame your facial features and/or offer styles to distract the world from your gorgeous God-given face. That's trash, and there's too much of that on the Internet already when you Google "hairstyles for round faces." Hopefully, this will give you some refreshing hair inspo instead with styles meant to enhance your facial features. What we will say is that having a round face—at least as hairstylists see it—is actually a great position to be in. Most haircuts—long, short, and even mid-length, can be made to flatter your soft curves.
Figuring out the most flattering haircut is no easy feat. For starters, you gotta have confidence. Then, you gotta own the cut. The best way to do that? With short haircuts.

If you're not sure where to start, we've rounded up the best short hairstyles for round faces for all hair textures. From sleek pixie cuts to tousled curled long bobs, there's a haircut suitable for every comfort zone. Whether you're looking to create height or volume with a short style or simply looking for a fresh new summer cut, click through to find your future haircut.

Blunt Bob
Chrissy Teigen is here to show you that simple haircuts are 👏 not 👏 basic. The crispness of the ends are counterbalanced by bends through the length, all of which work to highlight her face's elegant shape.




















Soft Waves With Bangs
How could I not acknowledge this unforgettable hair moment from Mila Kunis at the 2018 Billboard Music Awards? These bangs broke the Internet for good reason. Shaggy, baby bangs and a rounded bob is the recipe for success for round-faced queens.



Spiked Ponytail With Bangs
I'll never get over Charlize Theron's switch to the dark side by way of this new(ish) inky, brunette shade. It could be this masterful contouring, but something about her micro bangs and spikey ponytail makes her naturally round face look so damn sculpted.
