Hairstyle Tip: Ask for a haircut with texturized, blended ends. This will take the bulk out of your hair, which can add roundness to your face.

Hairstyle Tip: When wearing an updo, volume at the top of your head is key, but definitely should be avoided on the sides. Set your hair in large Velcro rollers to add volume on top before securing hair up to give your face a longer overall shape.

Hairstyle Tip: Wearing your hair half up can really elongate your face if you add volume and height to the hair in the front. To start the style, add waves at the root by wrapping hair around a small 1/2-inch curling iron. This adds texture and volume. Then backcomb hair at the crown of your head and loosely pin half of your hair up.

Hairstyle Tip: Long layers are ideal for a round face. The idea is to cut layers that hit at your cheeks to help elongate your face and create a more oval shape.

Hairstyle Tip: A center part is great option for round face shapes because it balances out the face and draws the eye to the center of your hair, not the roundness of your cheeks.

When you're styling your hair, there are loads of factors to consider: hair color, hair cut, what you're wearing, how you're feeling, how much effort you're willing to put in ... The list goes on. So, if you're stressing over finding the perfect hairstyle for your round face shape, we've got you covered.

In the past, finding hairstyles for round faces wasn't exactly easy. It seemed like all the styles out there were tailored for oval faces or heart shapes. In fact, it's safe to say the round face shape was the most forgotten face shape category. But now, with a little innovation and the help of gorgeous round-faced celebs, finding these types of hairstyles just got a whole lot easier.

We grilled Aussie celebrity hairstylist Sarah Potempa on her best tips for flattering round faces. From tousled blowouts to pretty updos, the hairstyles we found work for any occasion.
