The Best Cuts for Straight Hair and a Round Face

Welcome to our Hair Consultation column. To request an online hair consultation from celebrity hairstylist Bill Angst, follow the instructions here.

Q: Hi Bill, thank you for your time, this is a Venezuelan girl asking for your help. I really, really want to cut my hair. But I have a round-shaped face, and I am scared that short hair won't suit me. I have an idea of the haircut that I want, but maybe you could tell me what's the best for me.

I have straight, long brown hair with Ombré. These pics are how I look now. I do like long hair, but I want something different. Thank you so so much! PS: Forgive my English. I tried to explain my points with all the English I know. — Natasha

A: Natasha, I like your hair long as well.

I would add a bang similar to this photo, perhaps a little wider to show off both eyes and cheekbones:

I also love this colour and it would be a great transition from your current look. This can be worn straight or waved.

Long layers would diffuse the weight of your hair and give you some added texture.

This is a do not… I really do not like this for you:

This will box in your face and do you no favours.

Leave your hair long regardless of whether you choose to bang or not to bang.

PS: Your English is just fine and perfectly clear with your requests.
