If you have a double chin keep the hair around your face above chin level to draw the eyes upwards. The back may be grown a little longer -- a bob would be ideal.
If you have a short neck, a short cropped style will make a short neck appear longer. Long hair worn up will give the same effect. Well placed highlighting will also slenderize the face. Highlights that are woven around the face in an "angel halo" effect will also slenderize an overly round face.
Don't be afraid to wear your hair any length that you like. Long hair can be worn just as easily as short or medium length hair as long as you wear your hair "forward" onto your face to create a more "oval" appearance.
While you select your style be sure to take into consideration the texture or your hair. If your hair is thick and coarse you would do well with a style that benefits from the "Bed Head" look around the crown.
If you have curly hair, you can use the curls by letting them add height at the crown. You can also wear your curly hair longer, with the bulk of your hair pulled back behind your ears, or with just a very few ringlets along your face to minimize the fullness.

If you've got a great neckline, then I'd go with a short and fringy cut. On the other hand, if short hair is not your cup of tea, then I'd go with long layers that start at chin level.
The website below is a great guide for you. Just upload your picture and you can play around with different hairstyles. Just make sure you print out the style you wanted and bring it to the hairdresser with you. It'lll make it much easier for them.
Good luck and have fun!

A shoulder to mid length haircut with a layer of your choice (somthing that compliments your personality). The length will counter balance the 'roundness' and the layers to break up the shape a litte so it's doesn't look to uniform.

Is your face really round?
Before we even discuss some great styles for round face shapes, we should discuss the best way to determine what shape your face is.
While there are lots of suggestions on how to figure out your shape, from outlining your face shape on a mirror with lipstick to draping it with a towel and asking others to help you guess the shape, there is actually a scientific way to determine your face shape once and for all.
To find out the shape of your face measure it with a tape measure or ruler. You will take the following measurements.
1. Measure your face across the top of your cheekbones. Write down the measurement on a piece of paper.
2. Measure across your jaw line from the widest point to the widest point. Write down the measurement.
3. Measure across your forehead at the widest point. Generally the widest point will be somewhere about halfway between your eyebrows and your hairline. Write down the measurement.
4. Measure from the tip of your headline to the bottom of your chin.
Round Face Dimensions
If you have a round face, your face will be as wide as it is long. This may vary a little where your face is not quite as wide as it is long, but within 1/4 to 1/2 inches.
If you have a round face you will have fullness at and below your cheekbones. People with round faces also tend to have wide hairlines and their necks often seem short
If you measure your face and it does not fit the round shape according to the prescribed measurements, you may have a different face shape.
Listed below are the most common shapes besides round. It is possible that your face may not fit exactly into any one category and may be a combination of shapes.
Most people will fit into one of the major categories which include:
Oval Face - Length equal to one and a half times width.
Long - Longer than it is wide.
Heart - Narrow at jaw line, wide at forehead and cheekbones.
Square - Forehead, jaw line and cheekbones are almost equal in width.
Diamond - Wide cheeks, narrow forehead and jaw line.
Hairstyles for round faces
There really is no "one perfect hairstyle" for a round shaped face. Many things factor into the total equation. The length of your hair, the texture, your age and lifestyle requirements all play a part in the best style.
There are good general guidelines that you can follow but the best solution is to find a style that works best for you and all your beauty needs.
If your face is definitely round according to the above criteria, the best hairstyles generally include:
1. Layered bangs rather than straight or heavy bangs.
2. Short styles which give height.
3. Styles that add length.
4. Styles that keep the sides of your hair short or close to the face.
5. Curls around the crown, but never near the cheeks, to create height. Keep the sides of your hair short with a curly style.
6. Longer to very long styles with bangs and a graduated shag or layers so that the face and the neck are given a slenderizing shape.
Making the most of what you have
If you have a double chin keep the hair around your face above chin level to draw the eyes upwards. The back may be grown a little longer -- a bob would be ideal.
If you have a short neck, a short cropped style will make a short neck appear longer. Long hair worn up will give the same effect. Well placed highlighting will also slenderize the face. Highlights that are woven around the face in an "angel halo" effect will also slenderize an overly round face.
Don't be afraid to wear your hair any length that you like. Long hair can be worn just as easily as short or medium length hair as long as you wear your hair "forward" onto your face to create a more "oval" appearance.
While you select your style be sure to take into consideration the texture or your hair. If your hair is thick and coarse you would do well with a style that benefits from the "Bed Head" look around the crown.
If you have curly hair, you can use the curls by letting them add height at the crown. You can also wear your curly hair longer, with the bulk of your hair pulled back behind your ears, or with just a very few ringlets along your face to minimize the fullness.
Enjoy your style
One thing to keep in mind is to find a style that you enjoy. There is no point is selecting "the perfect style" if it is impossible to maintain or you don't enjoy wearing.
The Practice star Camryn Manheim is a classic example of letting her hair be the way she wants it to be and not following the strict rules for a round face. Another celebrity who throws the rules to the wind is Baby Spice of the now-defunct Spice Girls. Her very round face is often coiffed in styles that would not normally be considered the "perfect style" for her face shape.
One great way to find the best style for your face shape is to buy fashion, beauty and hair magazines and look through them for examples of hairstyles that you like and think would be flattering to your face shape and hair texture. Make a special hairstyle scrapbook of the styles you like best and then take the entire book to your stylist and ask them to advise you on some styles.
One trend that is definitely emerging in the hair and beauty industry is individuality. If you see a style that you love and it doesn't fit the "rules," wear it anyhow, or modify the style slightly so that it works well for your face.
The bottom line is to have fun with your hair. If you are happy with your look -- whether it fits the rules or not -- you will look better because you will be pleased with yourself.

dont go short..trust me. it did not look good. you should keep your hair medium length with layers around your face to soften and elongate your face. some highlights would help to.
