Easy styles you can whip together in no time flat.

There are tons of hairstyles out there that can define and accentuate your gorgeous round face shape. When looking for round face hairstyles, it’s important to keep angles in mind, opting for hairstyles that can both define and enhance your unique features. Round faces tend to do well with hairstyles that add extra angles and add more dimension to the face. Creating angles in your hair can be as simple as changing your part or adding subtle braids to your hair. Read on to check out six of our favorite round face hairstyles that you can try out this weekend.

Round Face Hairstyles You Can Create in Minutes

1. Loosely Curled

Loose curls are easy and chic.

Time: 15 Minutes

Have a fun brunch to attend this weekend? We love how loose curls can both soften and define a round face. To achieve this look, use a larger barrel curling iron to create your curls. For looser curls, use larger sections of your hair and curl for a shorter length of time. This is great because it cuts the time it takes to curl hair. Finish your curls by combing through your hair with your fingers. You can add in a side part for an extra angular look.

2. Deep Side Part

Romantic weekend at-home dates deserve a romantic hairstyle like this deep side part. The angle of your hair swooping across your forehead makes this one of the easiest round face hairstyles as you try out a chic, almost faux side bangs look. Make your side part more dramatic by using the Bed Head By TIGI Manipulator Matte Cream to slick down the shorter side without shine.

Natural-looking waves can be a bit harder to recreate than perfect curls. To get this natural-looking style we suggest using a good curling wand. To create subtle waves in your hair. The larger the section of hair you bend, the more natural-looking your waves will be. After creating the waves in your hair, use Nexxus Maxximum Finishing Mist to scrunch in a loose, piecey effect to your newly created waves.
