Male Haircuts For Round Faces

Determining the best hairstyles for round face men can be a difficult undertaking. Because guys with round faces have fewer haircuts and styles to choose from, getting the right haircut to suit this face shape can be tricky. Fortunately for you, we’ve found several cool long and short haircuts for round faced guys.

In the guide below, we will show you how to determine your face shape and then help you pick a top hairstyle if you are a round face male. In fact, many of the following haircuts for guys with round faces are simply variations of popular cuts and styles.

Determining Your Face Shape

Before choosing a haircut based on face shape, it’s important to be sure that you have identified your face’s shape correctly. Generally, round faces have softer features with very few sharp angles and measure approximately even in width and height. For example, round faced men usually lack a chiseled jawline or strong cheek bones.

If you’re having trouble determining your face shape, compare yours to the pictures below to get an idea of what a round-faced man looks like.

Best Round Face Haircuts

The key to the best men’s haircuts for round faces is to add volume at the top without making your face wider. Ideally, guys should get “short sides, long top” hairstyles to elongate the face and give it more angles. Similarly, avoid buzz cuts or very short haircuts to prevent adding more roundness to your head.

With those styling tips in mind, try one of these stylish long or short hairstyles and combine them with either a fade or undercut on the sides.

Pompadour

A pompadour is one of the coolest hairstyles for round faces. The pompadour’s iconic style adds volume to your hair without adding much width to the face, especially when combined with a high skin fade or undercut. Styling the pompadour will require a good pomade to create height and control.

Faux Hawk

The faux hawk is another popular men’s haircut. A taper fade on the sides with hair that gets longer towards the center of the head, a fohawk is a great way to add height and dimension to your hair. The pointed, mohawk-like style of the faux hawk is edgy and modern, so this haircut is perfect for men with round faces who want to try something new. However, you’ll definitely need a quality styling product!

Spiky Hair

Spiky hairstyles are an easy way to add volume to shorter hair. The height created by the spikes will balance the width of a round face and offer a hot, edgy look. To maximize the benefits of this cut and style, be sure to get a fade.

Styling spiky hair is actually quite simple – all you need to get the spikes is at least 2 inches of hair on top. Although spikes are easier to style when your hair is shorter, guys can opt for a more extreme look with longer hair.

Side Part

The side part haircut is the perfect hairstyle for a round face because it takes the attention away from the middle of the face and directs it towards the side. Side part and comb over hairstyles are easy and versatile, and don’t require much maintenance or styling effort. For business men or guys wanting a gentleman’s cut, the side part is a classic, professional choice.

Side Part with High Fade

To style the side part, first decide which side you would like to part your hair to. After evenly applying pomade through your hair, comb your hair to that side. Adding some volume in the front is a great way to create a trendy, modern look.

Quiff

Similar to the pompadour, the quiff is a hot hairstyle for men with round faces because it provides enough volume to create a tall, flattering look. By adding some hair styling product and creating a sexy quiff, guys can’t go wrong with the style.

To style the quiff, comb back the front of your hair while blow drying it. Use your fingers to lift quiff up and add volume. Using pomade or wax will hold the hairstyle in place and allow it to last all day.

There are plenty of good hairstyles for round face men. If you want to try a cut and style other than the quiff, side part, faux hawk, pompadour and spiky hairstyles, then check out the cool haircuts for round-faced guys below!
