Here, Kelly Clarkson (another classic round face), shows off a great hairstyle for women with round faces. Why this style works:

She allows the hair to grow below the chin, this helps elongate her face. When you have a round face, you want to avoid chin-length curly hair, or chin-length bobs.

Kelly sports sleek, graduated layers from her lips down. This helps remove bulk and weight from the sides.

Wispy, tapered ends de-emphasize roundness.
