In this photo gallery, I give you examples of great hairstyles for round faces, including shorter styles and cuts for all hair textures.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-decoration: inherit;">Why this cut on Emma Stone works on her round face:</span><br /><ul style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; margin: 1.5em 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative; text-decoration: inherit; z-index: 0;"><li style="font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; list-style-type: disc; margin: 0px 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: inherit;"><b>Long hair</b> is gorgeous on round faces because it lengthens the face. If you have a round face, your best cuts will fall a few inches below the chin and longer. Stone's cut skims her collarbone and "the ends aren't quite blunt or layered," says her hairstylist, Mara Roszak to Allure Magazine. Roszak snipped vertically into the bottom inch.</li><li style="font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; list-style-type: disc; margin: 0px 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: inherit;">Ask your stylist to cut in <b>long layers</b> with the shortest layer hitting at your earlobe or even lower. Short layers make a hairstyle appear dated and also add body to hair, which will make a round face appear rounder. You don't want that. Stone's layers start at her chin, and the longest ones are an inch from the bottom but they are blended in so well that you can't tell there are layers. "I cut into the ends of each layer to make them all blend together," Roszak told Allure.</li><li style="font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; list-style-type: disc; margin: 0px 0px 0px 18px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: inherit;">Long, <a href="http://beauty.about.com/od/bangswelove/ss/celebbangs.htm" style="color: #3366cc; cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">sideswept bangs</a> create angles on a round face. "We went for long bangs that hit around her cheekbone," says Roszak to Allure. "They angle down from there, which makes them fall nicely with the rest of her hair."

You'll need a great curling iron to achieve this look even if you have wavy or curly hair.
