A quick change in your hairstyle can make your face look sculpted. Here are a few fun styles that will give you the illusion of a thinner face

Loose curls

Straight hair is a big no-no for those with chubby cheeks as they only make your face look rounder. To get an illusion of a slim face, go for loose curls and stylise them giving them a voluminous look

Side swept bangs

Simple bangs won’t work for you if you want your face to look slim. Go for side swept bangs for a failproof look. This hairstyle shifts focus to your eyes and your lips, hides the baby fat around your face, and makes your face look thinner.

The Layered Look

If you have shoulder length or long locks, you could go with a lot of layers from short to medium and long. The layers not only add a bounce, but also give hair a voluminous look and make your face look elongated.

The Messy Ponytail

Love wearing your hair in a ponytail but anxious that it would highlight your cheeks? A messy ponytail is your answer, with strands framing your face for a sculpted effect. You can also use colourful hairpins or dainty fresh flowers to add more style to your ponytail.

lob

A lob is very similar to a bob but the length is slightly longer up than your jawline. The cut looks absolutely stunning on a chubby face. Not too short and not too lengthy, it has always been a celebrity favourite hairstyle.
