Short and Sassy Pixie
This sleek pixie cut is the embodiment of confidence. The hair is short and the lines are sharp and they outline the roundness of the face. The haircut is just right with the platinum blonde color and makes it look modern edgy, which one cannot ignore. This haircut is a game with textured layers, which allows the finest parts of a face to come out in a casual elegant way, displaying the eyes and cheekbones. The minimal makeup, featuring bold eyeliner and a neutral lip, further elevates this look, making it perfect for anyone who wants to add a touch of glamour to their day-to-day style.
When it comes to maintaining this bold pixie cut, you’ll want to ensure the texture remains fresh. Use a lightweight texturizing spray to keep the layers defined yet your hair not feel stiffed. Brands like Ouai Texturizing Hair Spray are a miracle to such a style, as they volumize and separate the hair without making it heavy.
Personally, I love that a pixie can make anyone look more sophisticated and chic and the cut in question is a good choice in case one has a round face, as it makes it look longer. It’s all about playing with angles and texture!
I received one of the tips on how to maintain those sharp lines by celebrity hairstylist Gregory Patterson who recommended that I get trims every 4-6 weeks to ensure that the cut does not grow out. Trust me, it’s worth the effort!
Effortless Lob with Soft Waves
This lob (long bob) offers a perfect balance of sophistication and softness, making it a top contender for round faces. It is a slight slanted cut in which the front sections are touching the collarbone and the hair is cut in a manner that it frames the face perfectly. The soft waves add volume and movement, while the rich red hue brings warmth that contrasts perfectly against autumn’s cooler tones. This cut can easily be worn both casually and in a more polished style for work or social events.
When it comes to maintenance I would recommend a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner like the Olaplex No. 4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo to maintain your color as well as keep it healthy. And don t forget to use a heat protectant when styling those waves since it will not only prevent damaging your hair but will also make your lob look fresh all day long.
I’ve tried this style myself, and it has such a flattering effect on round faces, especially when the waves are left a bit undone for that effortless look. The shape will provide you with the angles where they should be and will provide you with the sense of balance and will make your features look longer.
A pro tip? Celebrity stylist Andy LeCompte says that lobs are quite adaptable. It can be made a little more textured with a flat iron or altered to a tucked behind-the-ear style to make it a little edgier.
Shaggy Layers with Fringed Bangs
If you’re craving a haircut that’s all about volume and fun, look no further than shaggy layers with fringed bangs. This hair cut is extremely gorgeous against round face as it creates texture and movement and breaks fullness around cheeks. The bangs are a bit parted in the middle and make the impression of mystery, and they frame the face exactly. The rich copper shade enhances the textured layers, giving the hair an overall boho-chic feel that’s perfect for fall.
This shag hair requires some lovin in the form of a decent texturizing cream. A product like Moroccanoil Texture Clay can be used to define those layers without them being too stiff. It feels that beachy, messy, but it has a little hold to it so it does not go flat.
From my experience, this haircut feels so freeing. It makes you appear naturally cool and actually it suits round faces as the layers break the roundness of the face giving angles without losing softness. And it is simple to style with a small amount of product and air-drying.
The best advice that Brad Mondo shared with me is to be in love with the texture of your hair. When you have waves or curls, do not conceal them. It’s a great cut that really lets your personality pop!
The Sharp Bob with Side Part
If you’re into sleek and polished looks, a sharp bob with a deep side part is a must-try. This hair cut is just above the shoulders hence it is an ideal hair cut to round faces. The angular shapes and straight lines give a bit of form but the deep side part gives a bit of drama to the style and brings out the eyes and cheekbones. The glossy brunette color with caramel highlights adds richness and dimension, ensuring the hair looks vibrant and healthy from every angle.
When it comes to care, use a smoothing serum like Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Styling Cream so that the cut is sleek and frizz-free. A little will go a long way and the serum will also make the hair shine all day.
This bob is among my favorites because it is so simple and so strong. I have found out that the rounder the face the flatter it looks with sharp lines. It instantly renders you classier all round, and the side part well dug to the bottom? Pure magic.
Bob haircuts are timeless, hairdresser and stylist Johnny Ramirez explained to me once. They are classic and they can be worn in any event and they are so versatile.
The Playful Curly Bob
Curly bob is a flattering and fun style to people who are naturally curly. A curly bob that is slightly longer in the front and a fun side-swept fringe that highlights the eyes are a combination that should be used this fall. The curls are light and offer dynamic texture that makes it look bulkier and has a good face-framing effect. The deep auburn color enhances the natural curls, giving them an extra pop of vibrancy.
For curly hair, moisture is key. Moisturizing cream curl will assist you in maintaining your curls well-defined and frizz-free. One of the best ones to apply is any DevaCurl SuperCream Coconut Curl Styler. It makes your curls soft yet they still maintain their form despite weather conditions.
I have always adored how the curly hair gives so much character to any haircut and curly bob is a perfect choice to round faces because it adds volume to the edges, and the face looks longer. Plus, it’s the perfect balance of fun and sophisticated.
Once Ursula Stephen, a celebrity stylist, told me that the key to maintaining curls is not to do too much. Love your hair texture and with the appropriate products you can easily keep them straight and springy.
Textured Lob with Subtle Highlights
This layered lob is a fusion of the two worlds since it is soft and textured, which perfectly fits a round face. The haircut is a bit tilted forward, and the volume around the crown is only a bit to make it appear playful and fashionable. The natural movement of the hair is enhanced by the subtle highlights that add some depth to the whole look. The fringe is left somewhat wispy, which definitely softens the round face, gives an even contrast, yet still looks youthful and fresh. It’s a look that combines casual elegance and effortless chic, perfect for any fall occasion.
Your best friend in this style will be a good styling cream. To achieve that light and controlled texture I would recommend Oribe Soft Dry Styling Cream.

The color is a beautiful deep brunette with caramel balayage that is not only very warm but also very touching and that reflects the light perfectly. The bob is not too long, but it is longer than the shoulders, and it has a clean, structured shape without the entire look being heavy and dense. Paired with a simple black top, this hairstyle strikes the perfect balance between casual chic and high-fashion elegance.
In this style, I would suggest using a light mousse like Moroccanoil Volumizing Mousse to add more volume and prevent those waves to flatten. And a texturizing spray can also be a game-changer, and your waves will become even more moving and alive.
I personally am in love with this style- it is a classic, default cut. It works beautifully for round faces because the waves add softness while the bob’s structure creates an illusion of length. The caramel balayage contributes to that bright effect and it looks new and fashionable.
Blunt Cut Bob with Side Bangs
The side bangs blunt bob is a bold style that screams class. The angularity of the bob is further complemented by the side-swept bangs that are used to break the plumpness around the cheeks, therefore, this cut is best on round faces. The dark brown color with light highlights on the ends provides the rich and polished look. It is the ideal cut to the person who likes a bit of drama but still requires a style that is versatile to work and play. The bluntness of the cut makes it chic, while the side bangs add a playful touch that softens the face.
To keep the ends smooth and frizz-free, a smoothing serum is required to keep the ends sharp on a bob so sleek.

The choppy shoulder-length shag is the style to select in case you want to be more edgy and carefree. The hair is layered and of various lengths so that it appears messy and lived in, which suits a round face. The layers also help in giving the face less round but still retaining the softness of the round shape by giving the face angles. The sun-kissed auburn color is extremely dimensional and warm, and it is an excellent fall color to wear. This haircut is perfect for anyone who wants a low-maintenance, but still high-impact, style.
To give the hair the shaggy texture and to give you the messy, tousled look, a mousse or texturizing spray, like Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray, will be needed. Do not forget to use deep conditioning treatment once in several weeks to make your hair soft and healthy.

Celebrity stylist Kim Johnson says a bit of volume at the crown can further lengthen the face, which is essential to rounder face shapes. Therefore, should you wish to play with this, it will definitely help you achieve that perfectly undone effect.
Shaggy Lob with Wispy Layers
This is a risky attempt to style the fall haircuts on round faces with this shaggy lob with wispy layers. The angular layers of the face deflect the attention of the cheeks that are slightly broader in a round face shape. The jagged ends give it a grungy feel, and that makes the style appear new and modern. The hair falls just above the shoulders, which gives it a nice balance—keeping it short enough to not add bulk but long enough to maintain versatility.
When you want to keep this haircut sharp and stylish, a texturizing spray is your best friend. Use something that is light to hold but a bit texturally to bring out those layers without it being crunchy. Personally, I love a salt spray and a light-weight hairspray which will give my hair some volume. It is that easy cool-girl thing, which is just perfect in the fall months when you need to dress up, but you do not want to be too much.
For me, the shaggy lob has been such a fun cut to wear! It is very flexible, since it can be used on straight and curly hair. I have even tried some of my friends with round faces to give it a try and they loved how the layers cut the fullness of their faces. It is a trendy but comfortable option of everyone who wants to say something but not too much.
Modern Bob with a Deep Side Part
It is a contemporary, smooth, deep side part bob which suits round faces because it makes them longer and angled. The side part introduces the element of asymmetry, which is perfect to break the roundness of a soft face. The bob that is resting on the jawline is an ideal manner of framing the face that is sharp yet polished. The straight, sharp lines give it a clean, modern vibe that works for professional settings or even a night out.
To style this cut I would recommend a flat iron to ensure that the sleekness is maintained. Shine serum is also very good in providing the glossy look. You can use it to keep the hair fresh during the day, without frizz. The deep side part provides the structure, however, you do not want it to be too flat. In this way, a certain amount of volume at the roots will avoid the too rigid and rigid look.
This is the cut I would reach out to when I am in the mood of something bold and sophisticated, I would say. It’s sharp, yet it’s so easy to manage. And I heard the most talented stylists, like Chris Appleton, that a bit of the texture around the face will help to take the edge off the cut, especially on round face shapes, so don not be afraid to add a bit of volume around the crown.
Textured Wavy Lob with Subtle Highlights
Wavy lob cuts with textures are never a loser during the fall, particularly when the individual has a round face. This haircut is a combination of lob and natural waves, that is why this style is among the most flattering to the round face. The ends have been given fine highlights which have made it more dynamic and it gives depth and life to the waves. It’s soft yet chic, giving you that beachy vibe, even in the cooler months.
I would recommend a curling wand or a sea salt spray to maintain the waves. A 1-inch barrel curling wand would be the best to create soft waves to look like natural texture. You should finish it off with a pliable hairspray that fixes but does not lock the waves in place. You can apply a hair oil to get some additional shine, but do not apply too much, particularly when you do not want to alter the texture.
I love this look for its versatility. It is an informal, light-weight style that can be carried casually or formally. This style has brought me to brunch with my friends and it is easy and sophisticated. And the highlights give it a lift that fits round faces, and it does play up the waves.
Classic Blunt Bob with Side Swept Bangs
An all time fall haircut on round face is the traditional blunt bob and side swept bangs. The harsh, angular chop of the bob forms a powerful frame to the face and the side-swept bangs soften the edges and add a bit of youth. The length is perfect for round faces, as it lands just above the chin, and the bangs draw attention to the eyes rather than the roundness of the cheeks.
In order to style this cut, you need to possess a round brush and a blow dryer to make it look voluminous and to have the blunt cut kept. Individuals who have fine hair can apply a texturizing spray to thicken the hair. To keep the bangs in shape, they will have to be regularly trimmed, and you will require a light smoothing serum so that the strands do not look frizzy.
I have also preferred a blunt bob because it is so strong and demanding. It is mixed with side-swept bangs, and it looks like a modern version of an ancient fashion. I look composed even when I need to run some errands or go to a casual event. And honestly, this haircut never goes out of style—it just keeps coming back stronger!
Soft Layered Waves with Full Fringe
It is a soft layered hairstyle with full bangs which is appropriate to round faces during this fall. The long, falling layers and the complete fringe create a balance because it accentuates the eyes and the cheekbones, which lengthens the face. The layers give freedom of movement and bulk, and on top of it all the bangs round off the entire look, which isRefreshhing and young. It’s one of those hairstyles that blends effortlessly with both casual and formal looks.
A smoothing serum or a lightweight styling cream is a miracle to maintain it. The bangs in particular need to be clipped on a consistent basis so that they do not end up being too long or shapeless. Instead, you can apply round brush and blow-dry your hair to make the roots look thicker and the layers more noticeable. So that it does not feel flat, and to give it some texture, some dry shampoo or a sprinkle of sea salt spray will give your waves some volume and make it bouncy.
I’ve personally found this cut to be so versatile. This hairstyle seems to be working all the time be it when I am dressing up to go out to meet friends over coffee or dressing down to work. Stylist Jenna Perry is more likely to suggest side-swept bangs as they are extremely flattering on round faces since they break the roundness of the face and yet frame it perfectly. This is a hairstyle that has definitely made it to my fall rotation.
