Since thin faces usually have a strong jawline, you can easily pull off blunt bangs as they will make your face look less longer.

Messy Pixie

A thin face is usually trickier if you want a short haircut, but you can still pull of a messy pixie hairstyle to your benefit. The key is to remember to keep the hair volume on the low side. If you add a lot of volume to a pixie haircut, your face will end up looking longer than it originally is. The messy pixie is cute, sweet and amazingly simple.

Face Framing Layers

Layers are a great way to add more style to your hair. if you have long hair, face framing layers can do the trick for you. Another way to go is to have some side swept bangs with layers. Any way you choose, layers add definition and make your hair look more glamorous. Layers work well in all hair lengths so even if your hair is shoulder length or shorter, it never hurts to give layers a try.

Textured Bob

A textured bob is another great way to add some style to your hair and to make your face look a bit fuller. Again, this is one hairstyle that incorporates a lot of layers to give it the rich texture that looks so good when styled properly.
