The angled bob is that perfect mix of edgy and classic—it’s versatile enough to work with different textures, face shapes, and even hair lengths. Whether you’re rocking fine hair that needs some volume or you’ve got thicker strands that crave a bit more movement, the sharp lines of an angled bob will instantly freshen up your look. The secret is in the graduation: a steeper angle gives a more dramatic effect, while a softer angle feels more subtle and everyday-friendly. Pro tip—if you want to highlight cheekbones or jawline, opt for a chin-length cut. If you prefer something more low-maintenance, a longer bob that skims your collarbone can still give you that angled edge without too much styling.

Check out these ideas and find an angled bob that works with your hair type and lifestyle!
