Fashion for men’s haircuts is changeable and does not lag behind women’s. Many representatives of the stronger sex have been following new trends for a very long time. As soon as innovation appears in the field of hairdressing, they try to immediately visit the masters so as not to miss the opportunity to be stylish. As a general rule, the master selects a men’s haircut based on the structure and thickness of the hair. In addition, to choose the right hairstyle for a man, it is necessary to consider the shape of the face. The right haircut can correct the flaws of a male face or, conversely, make the image ridiculous. Of course, some haircuts look optimal on men with a round face. Let’s talk about them in more detail.
A person with soft rounded features is very accommodating and, at first, glance seems to be the company’s soul. But the universally recognized ideal of the shape of the face still strives for an oval. It is easy to achieve it.
A characteristic feature of a round face shape is that it tends to be the same in length and width, which results in owners of said type looking cute and soft.
Just like the same clothing size, the same hairstyle does not suit all men simultaneously. But unlike the clothes you can take off after a day of derisive remarks from your co-workers, you can’t just change your hairstyle either.
Fashionable men’s hairstyles are quite diverse, and you can safely choose short and elongated models. It is very important to select haircuts not only focusing on the latest trends but also the shape of the face. It is individual for every man. Round faces usually cause the greatest difficulties because not all hairstyles are suitable for chubby men.
ROUND FACE SHAPE
Remember: A round face does not mean fullness. Your main task and the purpose of visiting the barbershop are the illusion of an angular face. You can safely grow sideburns, but do not overdo it, and the haircut should be short on the sides but elongated on top. Thus, you visually indicate the length of stretching your face up.
UNDERCUT
It means that it implies a clear transition between short and long zones. The undercut is unique in its versatility – it suits almost any face shape. Although with round guys, you should avoid focusing on bald patches.
ASYMMETRY
In men’s haircuts, angularity is given to a round face type due to the unequal length of the strands and diagonal side partings. For some reason, it is customary to think that only young and creative people should play with asymmetry.
BEAN
Another fashionable way to give the face an oval shape is a bohemian bob with local volume in the crown area and elongated strands to the forehead and the ears.
BOB
Bob hairstyle options are suitable for a full face. The whole trick is in the elongated temples, which correct it lying on the face. If you add bangs to the image, she will also contribute to the correction.
KARE
Late-Kurt Cobain-style bobs were all the rage, and that’s very good news for broad-faced men. Shoulder-length hair thins like nothing else: in fact, they create vertical planes that narrow full cheeks. In the first film of the Thor franchise, Chris Hemsworth’s hair can be taken as an example of the perfect male bob.
BOXING
A neat sporty haircut opens the face, but at the same time, slightly narrows it due to the sides shortened by the machine and longer strands on the crown. Boxing is equally good for wavy and straight hair. He has one minus: because of the high edging line, all the irregularities of the skull at the back of the head are visible.
HALFBOX
A classic that has long been included in the hall of fame for calm, solid haircuts. It differs from boxing in a reduced edging line and a longer hair length in the upper part of the head. Usually, they reach five centimeters and add volume to the hairstyle from above, balancing the features of a rounded face.
LIGHT GRUNGE
Grunge (dirt) is a youth protest against luxury. Do not think that a grunge hairstyle is unsuitable for those who spend everyday life in the office or business meetings. You can put the strands back in a strict hairstyle for business negotiations, stretching out a round face. Both the grunge clothing style and the hairstyles suggest a carelessness that borders on slovenliness. In addition, you can use coloring or toning.
HIGH BEAM
For long hair, it is easiest to create volume at the crown. Collect in a lush bun, and the round face will immediately change – it will become more elongated.
FRENCH CROP
The crop is characterized by a shaved butt, whiskey, a lush crown, and bangs of any model. Such men’s haircuts can be seen in historical films. There they look great on the heads of medieval knights. In our time, the crop has become more textured and textured.
CHOPPY HAIRCUT
Choppy appeared in the late 20s of the last century. Its other name is a restless or disheveled bean. The main condition is that styling should not show that you spent half the morning doing this activity. It is a messy hairstyle with good volume at the crown. Looks great on wavy or curly hair and effectively corrects the round shape.
SPIKY HAIRSTYLE
Spiky sticking strands are a great way to add volume to the crown (which means diverting attention from the round shape) and stand out from the crowd with its originality. The fade should become the base for the “thorn.” And then it’s a matter of quality styling. Even though the hairstyle looks complicated, it is very simple to make it. Masters advise leaving no more than 4 cm on the crown to facilitate the formation of “thorns.” Any styling will do – mousse, gel, or wax.
FOR WAVY HAIR
Pompadour is a model men’s haircut for a round face in a classic style. Her distinguishing features: high-styled and combed to the back of her head hair, a “hurricane” of thick and voluminous bangs, short-cropped temporal part.
FOR STRAIGHT HAIR
Quiff – characterized by a combination of such varieties of haircuts as “pompadour” and “aircraft carrier.” In creating this hairstyle, the hairs are cut short at the back, and the average length remains in the front. The transition from curl to curl is smooth. Sometimes the style is like a mohawk, which further lengthens the face’s proportions.
POMPADOUR
Haircuts are characterized by short-cut side hairs and long ones in the parietal zone. These features are typical of most short men’s haircuts, suitable for the illusion of lengthening the face. The peculiarity of the pompadour lies in the vintage combing of the hair from the forehead to the back of the head. It was this haircut, paired with a thick brutal beard, that turned the plump face of actor and director Jonah Hill into an almost perfect oval.
CASCADE
A layered hairstyle will help hide the cheeks and distract from the soft jawline if the front strands reach at least the level of the cheekbones. This year’s popular cascading haircuts have one thing – high requirements for hair. They should be thick and slightly curly.
HAIRCUTS WITH OBLIQUE BANGS
Since short and straight bangs categorically do not fit wide faces, it is better to choose favor of bangs of any length (but not above the eyebrows level) with a side parting and styling to the side. If the hair is very thick, the front strands can be cut in a cascade or profiled, adding a “raggedness” to them.
SIDE SWEPT BANGS
Men’s haircuts with oblique bangs for short hair look original, expressive, and stylish, and this option also evens out the oval of the face. Because straight and short bangs do not go chubby at all, the choice should be made in favor of an elongated type with a side parting and laying on the side, and for creating a unique look, you can lay it back.
WITH RAISED BANGS
For chubby men, the best way to style bangs is up. We can achieve it with a little bouffant or styling products and a hairdryer.
WITH SLICKED-BACK BANGS
Another option is bouffant bangs back. The basis can be almost any haircut, which involves a slight elongation in the parietal region. These are pompadour, Canadian, quiff, and others. Slicked back hair in men makes them look more open. With caution, this option should be used by the representatives of the stronger sex with blemished skin.
CURLY HAIR AND BANGS
Did nature give you curly or very curly curls? It would help if you didn’t cut them. Curly hair in men can be curbed while creating a stylish look. It will be necessary to form a bang, excluding the straight form.
HAIRCUTS WITH A BEARD
To achieve the maximum effect and make a face “slim,” you can use a beard in addition to the hairstyle.
MEN’S HAIRSTYLE BUN AND BEARD
If you don’t want to part with long hair but try something new, why not grow a beard? Together, these two elements will correct the shape of the male face and make it more slender. Just do not forget that both the beard and curls should be well-groomed – moisturized, shiny and not tangled.
VOLUMETRIC HAIRCUT HEDGEHOG
The ultra-short hedgehog has not lost its relevance since the early 50s. Many men think that it is not suitable for a round face. It is not true. True, you will need to choose a hedgehog of a certain type. Shaved at the back of the head and whiskey to zero are combined with a medium-length hedgehog at the top. The latter must be performed so that there is an elongation from the top of the head to the forehead.
MEDIUM AND LONG HAIR
Hair below the level of a man’s ears symbolizes a rebellious character and artistry, but they are not for everyone. Is it worth wearing elongated strands chubby? As always, it all depends on the details.
