Round faces look good with layers, and since your hair is thin you should keep it on the shorter side. Try a layered bob or pixie cut.

Oval faces can wear pretty much any style. Short hair does accentuate facial features, so yes, a pixie is a good idea.

If you dislike your long forehead, or would like some more balanced out proportions, try blunt (or semi blunt) bangs. The length of the hair wouldn't make too much of a difference, so try a hair length you feel comfortable in.

From experience, I do braids a lot. I really like french braiding my hair. Also, if you put your hair in a normal braid, and sleep with it, you get nice curls that are not frizzy. Also, two french braids are nice to wear. You could also try buns. I normally wear high buns, so you could try that.

Wear it naturally; it may seem awkward but it is your best option. Otherwise, I'd recommend wearing it in a big messy bun.

Side bangs might work well. I have glasses too and I have side bangs, but it is a little annoying when they grow out and hang over your glasses, so you have to keep them trimmed.

It may or may not. Some people with long faces prefer to avoid any hairstyle that adds hair to the top of their head because they find it draws out their face even more. On others, it might look good. Everyone's face is different, even if you fall into a general type.

Pull your hair away from your face and look in the mirror. Take a window marker or a bar of soap and trace the edge of your face, then take a look at what shape you drew.
