#1: Messy Brunette Lob with See-Through Fringe

For a messy brunette shaggy lob with see-through fringe, look no further. This cut is ideal for those wanting a stylish look that requires minimal upkeep. To get the style, your hairstylist will layer and texturize your hair. They should use point-cutting techniques that create movement. Even in the finest of tresses! Ask your stylist to focus on framing your face so you can get maximum impact from its wispy bangs.

#2: Choppy Shaggy Lob with Textured Ends

A choppy shaggy lob with textured ends would be perfect for a fun mid-length cut. The textured ends add softness and movement throughout the cut. With this in mind, consider a good length for your hair texture and density to keep this cut easy to style daily.

#3: Soft Shaggy Lob

Try a soft, shaggy lob. But only if you’re looking for a versatile and low-maintenance hairstyle. This haircut features layered ends and textured waves. It creates a relaxed and effortless look. The soft cut works well with various hair types and face shapes. It’s a hairstyle that offers movement and body to your hair, giving it a natural and carefree vibe. To style this look, use a curling iron or texturizing products to enhance the waves.

#4: Voluminous Shaggy Lob

Live on the edge with a voluminous, shaggy lob cut. Ask for lots of layers and point-cutting to achieve a wispy shag. You can have the back cut shorter than the front for extra pizzazz. Doing so will make your shape appear longer. This cut works best on straighter hair. The best way to style it would be to use your hands as you dry straight down. A brush will inhibit the wispy separation and messiness that the shape craves.

#5: Center-Parted Shaggy Style

A center-parted shaggy style is perfect for ladies with fine hair. This cut features textured layers with slightly longer pieces near the front. Those pieces help create a flattering, face-framing effect. Allow your stylist to add shaggy layers to add volume. The length keeps the hair looking full and bouncy. This style works best for those who want a low-maintenance yet chic look. To style, start with damp hair and apply a lightweight mousse for volume and texture.

#6: Platinum Blonde with Sassy Shaggy Texture

Do you have platinum blonde thick hair and want a longer bob? Ask your stylist to texturize the ends of the hair with a razor, slide cutting, or texturizes. This will help skinny up the ends, but be aware of too much graduation in the perimeter. This will build up unwanted weight. Instead, focus on crown layers with textured perimeter length.

#7: Jet Black Textured Lob

The jet-black textured lob is the epitome of rocker chic. The cut can be styled more sophisticated for the day or with some volume and texture for a night out. Avoid washing your hair too often to keep the color rich and shiny. It’s helpful to use a shine cream or spray to finish the style. Remember to ask your stylist for advice on bringing your style from day to night. Typically, I use the volumizing powder and texture spray and rough up the hair, occasionally adding random waves with a wand.

#8: Brown and Caramel Balayage

If you have finer hair and want a long bob haircut with more body, did you know adding textured layers can open your mane? And it can give it a fuller appearance! If you decide to try this, the shorter layers push the longer ones away from your face. This makes styling easier and prevents your volume from going flat.

#9: Cute Shaggy Lob with Feathered Bangs

If you plan to do a cute shaggy lob with feathered bangs, begin by gathering a few photos for your stylist. Go over them during your next visit. Length and style can vary depending on the desired frequency of salon maintenance. Fringe, for example, can grow from short to curtain bangs and face-framing. All grow out gracefully between visits. Try various styles or during the grow-out before deciding on your signature look.

Go for the perfect balance between short and long with a soft long bob with balayage. A lob is so versatile and can work on any texture. You can wear your lob up or down, straight or wavy. The options are endless. If you need to keep maintenance down, go for a balayage and have your locks look naturally sun-kissed.

#11: The Shaggiest Lob Cut

The shaggiest lob cut is perfect for a woman with thick hair who wants to lighten it up! I highly recommend getting your stylist to use a razor or texturizing shears to add many layers. If you plan to have a texture, look no further.

#12: Shaggy Long Bob

A long bob shows off a soft, effortless-looking style that looks great on straight hair. It’s guaranteed to flatter women with a square or diamond face shape. The waves can lessen the sharpness of a jawline.

If you have long, fine hair and want to get fullness without affecting your length, try layers. They are also known as feathered layers or textured layers. The layers will remove the weight from your length. You must ask your stylist to leave your weight line out in the back area of your hair. That way, it doesn’t look straggly on your ends.

A long, messy bob with blonde ombré is what you need if you’re interested in modernizing your current hairstyle. Beach curls are all the rage and can be achieved with a 1-inch iron. Start curling mid-shaft, leave the ends straight, and create stunning wavy curls. Ombré color is a fabulous choice to go with a bob. The dark roots hide any growth, making it a low-maintenance style to keep.

When you want a shagged bob with fewer layers, here are some tips for your stylist. Instead of layering your bob for movement, ask your stylist for a razor cut at your hair ends.

#34: Face-Framing Choppy Shaggy Lob with Layers

Opt for a face-framing choppy lob with layers to get texture and volume if you wear glasses. Adding layers to a lob is perfect for adding volume and movement to your locks. However, remember that face shape can often make or break the final look.

#35: Shaggy Lob with an Undercut

The shaggy lob with an undercut is well-suited for women who want to subtly reduce the volume of their hair while keeping it trendy.

A long shaggy bob (also known as the shaggy lob) is a shoulder-length haircut created by a combination of jagged ends and layers. The idea is to give locks an effortless edge and lots of texture, movement, and volume. Ashley Marie, a stylist from Charlotte, NC, describes the shag haircut as a style that’s meant to be carefree.

The texture is the first thing to consider when opting for a shaggy lob. Maintenance comes next. Ashley says, “My advice is to consider your daily routine. Do the trims fit into your schedule? Can you afford 2-3 haircuts a year?”

For styling, Ashley’s fave product line is by Hairstory. She loves Hair Balm as a go-to product for natural curls. The Undressed texturizing spray is what she uses on women who need help in boosting texture.
