A long angled bob is a bob haircut that is at the shoulder or collarbone length and is shorter at the back and gradually becomes longer at the front. Angled lob haircuts give you the benefits of medium-length hair without all its weight because of the shorter back.

You should work with your stylist to play with those angles and create a lob haircut that complements your features.

Hairstylist Carolynn Judd, an expert hairstylist in angled cuts, points out the power of texture and shine when styling an angled long bob.

The maintenance of this angled bob depends on your desire to keep the length for a long time.

Here are this year’s most popular long angled bob hairstyles and haircuts to inspire you!

#1: Long Curly Angled Bob

This long angled bob for curly hair utilizes her natural curls. My favorite thing about this long-angled curly bob is its versatility. Having the nape shorter on a lob releases the natural curl and creates volume. You have to be okay with the fact that you might not be able to pull this bob up completely in a ponytail. Also, you will need some product to enhance your texture or smooth out any unruliness.

A brown long bob can greatly improve the appearance of thin hair. The sharp parameter and shorter length can make thinner hair strands actually appear fuller and thicker. Moreover, the soft brown color will give a richness and shine not possible with other hair colors.

Pick a messy feathered bob with short layers. It’s a style that suits all face shapes. This haircut’s full and rough look makes it fit for everyone. Ask your stylist for a step cut at the neck and longer hair in the front with layers of 3-4 inches all over. First, dry your hair using your hands with a volume-boosting product. Then, randomly curl your hair with an iron to get a messy style you love.

#10: Curly Collarbone-Length Stacked Haircut

Use your style to create art. Try a curly, stacked haircut. Make sure it reaches your collarbone. Try a stacked back if your hair has a crinkly texture. You can let it air dry. An a-line back works well in this style. It easily fills up the nape area. You might like the longer front. It makes your hair look more abundant. Remember, if you want a fuller look, ask for layered cuts. For a flatter look, ask for less layers.

The front part of the haircut will gradually grow slightly longer, resulting in a beautifully shaped edge. The light layers will lessen the bluntness and create a soft edge. The length will enhance any face shape and will require minimal styling. Women with straight hair can wash their hair and leave without needing extra styling.

#21: Beachy Waves on Long Bob Cut

A long bob cut with beachy waves suits any woman very well. The waves give a sassy and bouncy look and create lots of movement. If you have straight hair, wrap small to medium sections around a one-and-a-quarter-inch curling iron. Leave your hair on the iron for a short period but long enough to form a wave. To add an effortless texture, spritz your upside-down head with Kenra’s Dry Texture Spray.

#22: Smooth Long Angled Copper Bob

This long angled copper bob is a sleek and sophisticated choice for those looking for a polished yet modern hairstyle.

The angled lob is a haircut that starts with longer layers at the front and gradually gets shorter at the back. These layers create a trendy and sleek look. This cut adds movement and definition to your hair and beautifully frames the face.

#25: Straight and Shiny Angled Lob

A sleek, angled lob haircut is perfect if you have straight hair and want to go short but preserve some of the length around your face. A lob cut is a great way to ease into short hair. Instead of going straight for a dramatic pixie cut, try something more moderate first. You do not traumatize yourself!

Straight Angled Lob with Center Part
Instagram @olgakursitis

#26: Straight Lob with Center Part

A straight lob with a center part is a popular shape that’s trendy. Your hair will look very healthy without split ends. The length should be right at or above the shoulders to avoid flipping upwards. I suggest adding a light layer at the bottom of your hair to make the ends appear softer. Using a large round brush and a smoothing product like Olaplex #9 Nourishing Hair Serum will quicken your blow-drying time.

Side-Swept Thick Angled Lob

#29: Grey Wedge Lob for Older Women

A grey wedge lob is a stunning choice for older women. The grey wedge lob flatters the face. It also suits the color and texture of aging hair.

#30: Angled Lob with Blonde Balayage

If you love sharp styles, try an angled lob with a blonde balayage. An angled lob is graduated in the back, which creates the perfect line. The center nape must be the shortest point, getting longer as you move toward the front. You’ll want to avoid over-layering the crown if you like a strong perimeter. The long layers are the perfect canvas for a balayage and will show it off beautifully.

#31: Angled Lob with Waves

An angled wavy lob can be a great cut for any age and any face shape! A moderate effort will be required in styling a lob. Use a blow dryer and a Denman or flat brush against the curve of the head to create natural volume. Add beach waves for more movement by leaving the ends out while curling. Finish with a texture spray or light hairspray.

#32: Long Inverted Angled Bob

If you want a dramatic change, try a long inverted angled bob. The medium blunt cut with a shorter back is the perfect shape for an amazing visual and allows you to keep some length. Keep in mind the blunt line needs to be right above the shoulders so it does not flip out. Blow-dry this style with some smoothing cream and a large round brush. A flat iron can be used for stubborn waves.

#33: Long Bob with Bangs and Layers

Check out this textured, long, angled bob with bangs and layers. You can wear long angled bobs straight for a classy or casual style, curly or wavy for a messy, voluminous hairstyle.

If you don’t have time and must be ready in 5 to 10 minutes, blow dry the front of this long slanted bob and flick back to the fringe to create a smooth movement. If you’re considering an angled lob for thin hair, use dry shampoo powder to create more body and boost the roots.

#34: Textured Shoulder-Length Angled Bob

This shoulder-length angle cut with layers is a classic cut that’s very versatile. A long slanted bob requires maintenance, daily styling, and routine salon visits!

Creating a beautiful look with any angled haircut entails blow drying smooth with a round brush and potentially additional styling with a flat or curling iron. I don’t recommend angled long bobs like this for women looking for a “wash-and-go” haircut, as this would be too much work.

#35: Choppy Angled Bob with Long Side Bangs on Fine Hair

A choppy, long angled bob with side bangs is the perfect date night hairstyle when you add subtle curls.

Having full bangs adds to the quirkiness of the beautiful medium-angled bob cut.

#38: Medium-Length Angled Bob with Layers

A medium-length, long angled bob with layers is amazing for women with fine hair to add more fullness.

If you have dark chocolate roots, add a golden brown ombre to make this angular lob cut pop.

#39: Long Asymmetrical Bob with Undercut

A long asymmetrical bob with a side undercut is where one side is longer and much more angled. It’s a fun haircut with a touch of sass to it! This angled bob is a bit high maintenance because, to maintain the undercut, nice and clean, consistent trims are recommended. This long bob style looks perfect flat ironed, beach waved, or even natural textured!

#40: Long Slightly Angled Bob Haircut

This is a textured, long slightly angled bob.

Short-length bobs are not always best for low-maintenance women.

This angled cut looks best styled, and to maintain this length, it requires a trim every 6-8 weeks.

This long angled bob for wavy hair is called the “beach babe” look. The texture of this bob adds volume, dimension, and movement to the hair. If you like easy-going, trendy hair with versatility, this angled style is for you! It’s the girl who wants to keep it short but still has the length to style it up.

How to style longer angled bob haircuts:

1. Apply a heat protectant spray
2. Curl with a 1 or 1.5-inch curling iron.
3. Apply a texture hairspray for long-lasting waves.

#43: Long Blunt Cut Angled Bob with Side Part

A long angled blunt bob with a side part is a super trendy haircut that’s good for women looking for a change but nothing too crazy.

A long bob with an angle is a way to get a feel for having a shorter haircut while still having the versatility of a longer cut.

If you have thick and curly hair, this angled lob hairstyle may require more maintenance in the morning to achieve this desired look, but most of the time, it works well with a natural wave or styled straight or loosely curled.

#44: Long Angled Blonde Bob

Opt for a bright, dimensional long angled bob haircut and color!

The color on a dramatic angled cut is perfect for women who want to have that platinum blonde and multiple tones to their hair so it doesn’t feel as solid.

The styling process will be shorter on this long bob haircut, but if you have a curly hair texture, you will still need to use an iron to style this haircut.

A texturizing spray is a must to achieve that sleek bob style.

#45: Angled Bob with Long Layers

This long angled layered bob is a sassy twist to a trendy haircut. If the angled cut is done right, this lob is easy to style and versatile. Textured angled lob haircuts are perfect for fine and thin to normal and medium hair thickness and texture. A long layered angled bob is for girls on the go and stay-at-home moms.

This very long angled bob hairstyle has softened textured layers, great for that swing and sway. Being strategically placed, highlighting a long angled haircut will help you have seamless grow-out and low-maintenance hair. Angled lob hairstyles are one of the best hairstyles because they can be worn in many ways – up, down, round brushed, straightened, curled – the options are endless.

To style a long angled bob:

1. Blow dry spray (for heat protection)
2. Add boosting spray foam (for the body)
3. Curl away from the face with 10 vertical sections using an inch-and-a-quarter-sized curling iron. Start midshaft every 1 to 2 seconds turn, no more than 5 to 6 seconds per curl.
4. The ends need less heat, being fine and lightened.
5. To finish, use dry texture spray (curl definition).

#48: Ideal Angled Bob for Long Thin Hair

This sleek, long, angled bob for thin hair is perfect for adding more body and fullness. I love the clean lines on this angled lob cut, as it shows the attention to detail.

It is important to make note of your hairline’s natural growth pattern when considering getting long angled hair. That can sometimes cause sections of the hair to flip out in weird ways that we don’t want!

#49: Long Stacked Angled Bob with Bangs

Long layers make a wonderful round body for this stacked angled lob hair style with bangs.

An angled bob with long hair will lift your appearance and help you with those unflattering angles.
