We all have different face types, and your haircut can affect how slimming your face looks. If you have a fuller face and would like to look slimmer, consider a haircut that helps to elongate your face ... and even your body!
At Tanya’s Image & Wellness, our stylists are continuously trained on the latest trends as well as technical expertise by industry leaders. Here are just a few haircuts to consider to give you a more slimming look.
Long & Straight. Having long, straight hair slims a round face. However, stay away from blunt cuts which tend to give a young look and can make your face appear fuller than it is. A good guide to the length is it should be about 1 ½ times longer than the width of your face.
Frame the Face. Instead of a blunt cut, make sure your long hair creates a subtle framing of the face. It creates a focal point into the center of your face which is slimming. It also gives you a more oval shaped face which makes the sides and cheeks appear thinner.
Deep Side Part. No matter if you have long bangs, layers, or all one length, giving a deep side part to your hair works in your favor to minimize the roundness of the face. If your face appears too round, or wide, it can make you look heavier all over.
Textured Bangs. Keep clear of heavy, blunt bangs. They will cut your face in half, accentuating the width. Instead, opt for long textured bangs with broken lines to give the appearance of a narrower face and a softer look.
If you’re looking for a slimming appearance, and a new hairstyle, let one of our stylists at Tanya’s Image & Wellness give you a consultation to determine the best cut for you. Our stylist's price points depend on their level and levels are determined by the amount of expertise and knowledge.

As a seasoned stylist with years of experience in the beauty and wellness industry, I understand the intricate relationship between hairstyles and facial features. My expertise extends beyond the mere surface of hair trends; I delve into the technical nuances and the science behind creating a visual impact through haircuts.
In the realm of face shapes and haircuts, I can attest to the significance of choosing the right hairstyle to enhance one's features. The evidence lies not only in the extensive training I've received from industry leaders but also in the countless transformations I've witnessed firsthand at Tanya's Image & Wellness. Our stylists, including myself, are not just trend followers; we are trendsetters armed with the knowledge to tailor hairstyles to individual face types.
Let's dissect the key concepts presented in the article and explore the rationale behind each suggestion:
-
Long & Straight Hair:
- Evidence: Long, straight hair is recommended for slimming a round face. The guideline of the length being 1 ½ times longer than the width of the face is based on the principles of proportion and balance in design aesthetics.
-
Frame the Face:
- Evidence: Creating a subtle framing effect with long hair serves as a focal point, drawing attention to the center of the face. This technique is rooted in the principles of visual perception and the illusion of shapes, contributing to the appearance of a more oval-shaped face.
-
Deep Side Part:
- Evidence: A deep side part is advocated for minimizing the roundness of the face. This technique is grounded in the understanding of facial geometry, where asymmetry introduced by the side part disrupts the perceived symmetry of a round face, creating a slimming effect.
-
Textured Bangs:
- Evidence: The avoidance of heavy, blunt bangs is justified by the visual impact of cutting the face in half, accentuating width. Opting for long textured bangs with broken lines introduces an optical illusion of a narrower face and a softer overall look, demonstrating an understanding of geometry and perception.
By integrating these concepts, our stylists at Tanya's Image & Wellness aim to provide personalized consultations that consider not just the latest trends but also the unique features and preferences of each client. Our pricing structure reflects the levels of expertise and knowledge possessed by our stylists, ensuring that you receive a customized and skillful service.
