#1: Face-Framing Curly Bob Hairstyle
If you have thick curly hair, try a just above the shoulders haircut. Ask for the layers to be slightly shorter near the front to help frame your round face.

#2: Short Hair with Lowlights and Wispy Ends
Lowlights with wispy ends add depth to fine short hair perfectly. Adding a hint of a darker shade brightens your blonde hair and highlights your layered haircut. If possible, avoid washing your hair frequently to maintain health and color integrity.

#3: Stylish Short Hair with Volume
Short hair with volume suits women in their 50s with round faces, particularly when additional volume is included. A layered, choppy cut can make the hair appear fuller and more textured. For this look, keeping some hair length is key to avoid the appearance of reduced volume. Invest in quality volumizing mousse. Apply it to wet hair and gently twirl it to boost natural curls and separation. Using a diffuser while drying helps keep the volume and enriches the texture. For added volume, gently lift the roots using a pick.

#4: Short Pixie Makeover with Sweeping Fringe
Looking for a haircut that flatters your looks and frames your face well? A short pixie style with a sweeping fringe is a good choice. This modern hairstyle suits 50-year-olds with round faces perfectly. The short pixie cut gives a youthful look, while the sweeping fringe balances the face shape. The trick is slightly tapering the hair’s sides and back for a gentle, easy look. Use a light hairspray or texture spray to hold the pixie cut and sweeping fringe all day.

#5: Sweeping Long Pixie with Pink Highlights
A sweeping long pixie with pink highlights is a chic option for women aged 50 with a round face. This haircut is the perfect blend of sophistication and playfulness. It provides a youthful update to any look. Opt for keeping the length of the pixie longer towards the front, framing the face for a flattering effect. The pink highlights add dimension and a fun accent to the overall style. To maintain this cut, use a lightweight pomade for easy styling and texture.

#6: Icy Silver Blonde Messy Pixie with Fringe
Ask for an icy silver blonde on a messy pixie with fringe. My advice for round face shapes is to add a style with crown layers and a textured fringe. This will elongate the face shape and accentuate the eyes. A longer fringe in the middle is a great way to piece out the texture in bangs. Ask about a cropped pixie cut for this cute style.

#8: Classy Pixie Bob for Women Over 50 with White Hair
If you have white hair, you should try a classic pixie bob for women over 50. White hair looks especially beautiful when cut into a short trendy style. Ask your stylist to cut the nape with elevation and add medium layers. This shape is quick to style with a medium-sized round brush or your hands blowing under and forward. Your pixie bob should be trimmed every 5 weeks to keep it fresh.

#9: African American Pixie Bob
This African-American pixie bob haircut features a side-swept fringe to flatter your round face shape. Style the layers with soft waves to add movement to your locks. Pixie bobs are one of the best short hairstyles for round faces over 50. This is because pixies often have angled bangs, which can have a narrowing effect on your face.
