Not a round face? See other flattering haircuts for oval, long and square faces
Why this cut works:
- The gentle waves deflect the roundness of the face. But be careful with curls. Extremely curly or flat hair can accentuate roundness.
- Michelle's hair has texture, which is important on a round face. Be careful with short haircuts -- your head can appear rounder with a bob, especially if you were also blessed with a short neck. A few textured layers can really make this cut work.
- Wispy ends are more flattering to a round face than blunt, one-length ends, which tend to widen the face.
Product musts for this look:
This style requires a styling gel to keep down flyaways and hold hair in place. Try Philip B styling gel, the stylists' secret because it's not expensive and holds hair without making it stiff or crunchy, according to InStyle magazine.
Consider a setting spray to hold the wave. Spritz on a 2-inch section of hair before wrapping around a barrel of a curling iron. I like Bumble's "Prep" spray.
To add volume to limp curls, try a volumizing spray or mousse.
