Finding the right haircut after 60 can be a game-changer, especially when you want to flatter a fuller face. The perfect cut not only frames your features beautifully but also boosts your confidence.
These face-slimming styles are specifically designed to create balance and highlight your best features while keeping maintenance simple.
1. Layered Bob with Side Sweep
Gentle layers around the face create movement while the side-swept bangs draw attention diagonally across the face. This clever combination visually slims fuller cheeks while keeping styling simple for everyday wear.
2. Pixie Cut with Textured Crown
Height at the crown creates vertical lines that elongate the face instantly. The textured top contrasts beautifully with shorter sides, drawing the eye upward rather than outward—a brilliant optical illusion for fuller faces.
3. Lobo asimmetrico
Slightly longer on one side than the other, this modern cut creates visual interest that pulls attention away from facial fullness. The diagonal line across the jawline cleverly slims the face while offering versatile styling options.
4. Soft Shag with Curtain Bangs
Face-framing layers start at the cheekbones, creating definition where fullness typically appears. The curtain bangs split in the middle and sweep outward, drawing attention to your eyes while softening the overall facial silhouette.
5. Graduated Bob with Volume
Shorter at the back and gradually longer toward the front, this sophisticated style creates a sleek frame around fuller cheeks. The added volume at the crown stretches the face vertically, creating an instant slimming effect.
6. Long Layers with Face-Framing
Strategic layers starting at the jawline create vertical lines that elongate rounder faces. The longest pieces hit below the shoulders while shorter front sections gently caress the cheeks, breaking up facial fullness beautifully.
7. Tapered Crop with Forward Texture
Ultra-short sides blend into slightly longer top sections that can be styled forward toward the face. This forward movement creates shadows and angles on rounder faces, while the tapered sides slim the overall silhouette.
8. Angled Bob with Deep Side Part
Sharp angles along the jawline create definition that counterbalances facial roundness. The deep side part adds asymmetry that further slims the face, while the longest points hit right at the jawline for maximum impact.
9. Feathered Medium Cut
Wispy, feathered layers throughout create movement that distracts from facial fullness. The soft edges around the face blend seamlessly with fuller cheeks, while the overall shape maintains enough length to elongate the face.
10. Choppy Pixie with Long Bangs
Playful, uneven textures throughout the crown create height that visually stretches the face. The longer, side-swept bangs slice diagonally across the forehead, breaking up roundness while maintaining a youthful, modern edge.
11. Shoulder-Length Cut with Subtle Layers
Falling just at the shoulders, this length creates a vertical line that naturally elongates the face. The barely-there layers add movement without sacrificing the slimming effect of the straight edges framing both sides of the face.
12. Curly Bob with Height
Natural curls or waves concentrated at the crown create vertical volume that stretches the face upward. The sides remain closer to the face, avoiding width while the curly texture draws attention away from facial fullness.
13. Textured Crop with Wispy Bangs
Short all over but with intentional pieces of texture that can be styled in multiple directions. The wispy, piece-y bangs soften the forehead while creating diagonal lines that slim the overall face shape.
14. Midi Cut with Curtain Fringe
Hitting right at the collarbone, this length creates a slim vertical frame around fuller faces. The curtain fringe opens at the center and sweeps to each side, highlighting cheekbones while softening fuller areas.
15. A-Line Bob with Volume
Shorter in back and angled longer toward the front, this geometric cut creates strong lines that offset facial roundness. The volume concentrated at the crown stretches the face vertically while the precise edges slim the sides.
16. Layered Pixie-Bob Hybrid
Combining the best of both worlds—pixie shortness at the back and sides with bob length at the front. This clever combination creates angles around fuller cheeks while maintaining enough length to style away from the face.
17. Chin-Length Bob with Texture
Hitting precisely at the jawline, this classic length creates definition exactly where fuller faces need it most. The added texture throughout prevents the cut from looking too blunt, softening the overall look while maintaining its slimming effect.
18. Shattered Lob with Fringe
Heavily texturized ends create a “shattered” effect that removes weight and adds movement around the face. The fringe sits just above the eyebrows, drawing attention to the eyes while the mid-length cut elongates fuller cheeks.
19. Modern Wedge with Layers
An updated take on the classic wedge, featuring softer layers throughout that prevent the mushroom effect. The graduated back creates a sleek neckline while the face-framing front pieces slim fuller cheeks with their diagonal lines.
20. Soft Undercut with Long Top
Daring yet flattering, this style features closely cropped sides and back with significantly longer lengths on top. The dramatic contrast creates vertical interest that draws the eye upward, instantly elongating fuller face shapes.
