Your Face Shape: Round
What this result means
A round face is about as wide as it is long, with full cheeks, a soft jawline and no sharp corner at the jaw. The cheekbones and face length sit close to equal, which is what gives the outline its circular read.
The nearest boundary in our rule set is Round ↔ Square: the two prototypes differ mainly in jaw angle (132° vs 108°). If your result feels wrong, that's the pair worth reading about before re-measuring.
Read: Square →The styling picks below are the short version. The full Round guide goes through the same four measurements, how to check them yourself, and every category in detail.
We don't sell glasses or hair products, so these picks aren't influenced by any brand.
