22 Ways to Wear Bangs If You Have a Round Face

There isn’t a rulebook when it comes to haircuts—we should all feel free to wear our hair exactly how we want. However, a great haircut will always highlight your features. When you have a round face, that means opting for a chop that draws on your natural symmetry. One of the best ways to do that? With bangs, according to stylists.

Considering there are many trending styles to choose from—curtained, choppy, blunt, baby—it’s important to lean into looks that suit your needs.

Whether you’re looking for a feathery fringe or some low-commitment curtains, these 22 examples of bangs for round faces will help get you started.
