A lob with a center part like Adele's draws hair frontward into the face to create the illusion of a longer facial structure.

Side-Swept Bangs

A swoopy side-swept bang like Stone's draws the attention horizontally and brings the focus up to the eyes, rather than the roundness of this facial shape.

Long, Wavy Layers

For fine hair, Wood says that layers should be cut strategically. "Cutting a full layer will take down the weight at the bottom of the hair and make it appear thinner than it actually is," he explains. Instead, opt for a spritz of texture spray to add movement and beachy bends to strands like Teigen's which will make hair appear fuller."

Although a center part is one way of making the face appear slimmer, sweeping long layers styled in loose curls off to one side will also help the face seem leaner.

Wispy Bangs

If you want fringe, Wood recommends a soft, taped version like Johnson's. "A tapered, soft fringe cuts into the sides of the face rather than looking blunt will help elgonate it," says Wood.

For thick hair, a center part like Gomez's may remain ideal, but Wood says to ask for fewer layers and for the stylist not to undercut hair.

A shorter length can flatter round-shaped faces, too. However, Wood advises that you incorporate pieces that fall around the face to create balance. A soft Bardot-esque fringe is also a great option to add more movement to the cut.

Soft waves and a dead-center part are always a good combo for round faces that want to keep their length long.

Long, center-parted fringe that tapers off of the sides of the face will flatter round faces rather than creating a blunt, straight line like full bangs.

Face-Framing Layers

Cameron Diaz's face-framing layers are swoon-worthy. "Layering around the face is going to slim and break up a round face shape. This will draw the eye horizontal and bring the focus to the eyes, cheeks, and lips," says Wood.
