Can you suggest an edgy, bob haircut for a round faced person like me?

I have a round face. I've read a couple of articles here and found out that bob haircuts are not advisable for people who have round faces. I badly want to have an edgy bob cut. Can you suggest anything or enlighten me with this matter? Thanks!

Well the thing with round faces and bob haircuts, is to NOT get a bob that is in the same shape as your face, ie doesn't make your face look more round.

Now that doesn't mean you can't rock one though! The trick is to work with your hair type, and get the right shape. That means to get a cut that makes your face look more oval, not round.

With short hair you do that by adding height to elongate the face, and have very little hair going outwards from the sides of the face.

I can barely see your photo, but it looks like right now you have blunt bangs and a blunt cut.

Keep the bangs.

Get a two-tiered cut for the rest of your hair. By that I mean, have the crown spiked, and chunky cut bob the rest.
