A wavy bob with bangs is a short to medium-length haircut with a fringe to suit most face shapes. The chop is styled with waves for volume and body that prevent the hair from appearing lifeless.

Australia-based hairdresser Kate De Pasquale shares a few tips on this hair idea. She suggests preparing yourself with the daily styling and regular trims this look needs.

“Most fringes take a little bit of work on wash day and a bit of refreshing in the morning. That being said, get a cut with your hair type and lifestyle in mind,” De Pasquale states.

A thorough consultation with a professional is necessary to ensure you get the proper cut of bangs.

De Pasquale explains, “Bangs must not look too wide nor too thin. There’s a delicate balance in creating a fringe, and there’s no traditional way to go about it. Consult your stylist and consider your face shape and hair density.”

Plan your salon visits well. Ask your hairdresser how often you should come back to the salon for trims. Moreover, learn how to style a wavy bob cut, especially the bangs.

It’s fun to try a little bit of change now and then. Take a look at these photos of the most inspiring cuts and styles for a wavy bob with bangs!

#1: Copper Wavy Bob with Fringe for Thick Hair

A bob is a suitable hairstyle for thick hair. It can be tailored to match your style and face shape. I would recommend adding texture to the ends of your hair. This can be done with either razor cutting in the perimeter or by slicing with scissors. These methods create a blunt yet soft texture at the ends. They also reduce weight while maintaining fullness. Add a full curtain bang to finish the style. This suits smaller face shapes.

#2: Razored Wavy Bob with Bangs

Try a razored French bob with fringe if you love the texture! Using a razor will create texture and layers in your hair. Put some waves in your hair and don’t forget the texture products!
