Hairstyling tips to make your cheeks look thinner
Attention on Volume: To get a slimmer look, one must focus on managing volume as round faces are wide at the cheeks. With volume on the sides, the face will appear rounder.
Short Hairdos: Tapered cuts that are cropped closely on the side face, with crown being high or layered is a great hairstyle for round-faced women. Additionally, bobs also appear good on round faces.
Medium to Long Styles: A hairdo with full volume crown looks great on a round face. For this length, keep the hair accentuated long, straight with wispy or asymmetrical bangs. For an elongating effect, one must keep hair beyond chin length. The face will appear slim with soft waves parted on one side or with the hairdo pulling hair back with wispy bangs.
