Ask for a super blunt long slob. For a couture look, a blunt perimeter does the job. With a blunt cut, you get fullness and a precise line, making your cut clean and looking fresh. A great cut for those with fine hair or those with thicker hair that want a bold style. A flat iron with a Babyliss Pro for smooth results and gentle titanium plates.

#3: Slob with Highlights

The slob haircut with highlights is a versatile and trendy look that suits women of all ages and hair types. This mid-length hairstyle features a longer length in the front, gradually getting shorter towards the back, creating a soft and flattering shape. The highlights add dimension to the hair, enhancing its texture and movement. This haircut works well for those who want a fresh and modern update to their hair without going too short. It can be styled in various ways, from sleek and straight to tousled and wavy, making it suitable for any occasion.

#4: Light Brown Straight Long Bob

Medium and fine hair textures that typically lay very straight work best with this hairstyle. A blunt perimeter gives this shape its fullness. You and your stylist can determine the length of your haircut based on your preferred style. If your hair is naturally straight, blow-drying it with a flat brush will help you achieve this style easily. If not, a routine involving a lot of heat protection and a flat iron will be your next best option for styling.

#5: Creamy Blonde Long Concave Bob

A hairstyle with an angled cut can be seen as a concave shape, with the angle of the perimeter forward-facing to give a concave profile. Adding a curtain fringe makes the style unique and adds volume to what would otherwise be a flat hairstyle. This style adds fullness to fine and thin hair textures.

#6: Platinum Blonde Box Bob

For a sophisticated professional, a box bob acts as a bold statement, symbolizing strength and feminine power. You should seek a stylist specializing in precision bobs when you want this hairstyle. This haircut is traditionally known as a thatch bob, but it’s widely referred to as a box bob due to the straight edges and unique shape it produces.

#7: Slob Cut with Balayage

A slob cut with balayage is great. It’s ideal for those who want a short hairstyle. It especially works well for people with thick or dense hair. Choosing a slob cut instead of a traditional bob is good for thicker hair. This bob style keeps its shape longer without flaring out or turning triangular quickly.

#8: Wet Slob Hairstyle

A wet, sleek bob is a high fashion hairstyle suitable for any special events or occasions. If you have short hair, it can sometimes be tricky to find the right party hairstyle. Creating a sleek, wet hairstyle can offer a fun, high-fashion way to achieve a distinctive and sophisticated look. The wet and sleek look is best achieved when one simulates the appearance of wet hair. I suggest applying a shine spray and oil to dry hair to create this illusion. Once done, secure your style with non-aerosol hairspray.

#9: Fierce Slob with Choppy Bangs

This season, if you want a sleek and edgy look, go for a fierce slob cut with choppy bangs. The cut is a sleek, one-length bob, typically worn straight and smooth. If you have fine, straight hair, this haircut can give the illusion of more fullness. Adding choppy bangs can frame your face. You can also customize them to suit your face shape.

#10: Asymmetric Slob

Consider the chic shape of an asymmetric slob haircut. A slob is slang for a sleek bob, which is trending now and boasts of a minimalistic style that is super low-maintenance. You can ask your stylist to cut the part side shorter to create the asymmetry of the bottom line and leave your shape nice and blunt. Try blow drying with an extra large round brush to achieve a smooth edgy finish.

#12: Bob-Length Lazy Girl Hairstyle

A bob-length could be your lazy girl hairstyle if you have straight hair. Ask your stylist for a middle part and a one-length bob. You won’t have to do much but comb your hair if your hair is pin-straight. If you have a slight wave or a coarseness to your locks, try blow drying with a giant round brush and some smoothing cream. Remember that if your hair is one length, you won’t be able to move the part, or you’ll have an overhang.

#15: The Perfect Middle Part Haircut

This slob haircut is perfect if you want a fun mid-length haircut! You will want to consider the texture of your hair when choosing where you want your length to sit. A bit longer may be better than short, fine hair for more unmanageable hair. This length will keep your hair looking thick.

Here’s a sleek, effortless chin-length bob. For a simple yet sophisticated bob, chin length and sleek are always in style. A classic style that works great for thin, medium, and thick hair. Depending on hair density, you may need extra weight removal if you’re thicker. Thinning out to keep the style slimmer, it will hold its shape beautifully with the thick hair on its side.

Make the most of your thin hair in a straight chin-length bob. A blunt cut is perfect for fine hair textures, making it the thickest. Know where you want your part to live when you get your cut.

You’ll want to use a volumizing product Pureology’s Style + Protect Instant Levitation Mist, to add volume to your strands.

#24: Slightly Graduated Slob

This is a popular look if you like short hair in the warmer months. The graduation in the back keeps the shape and the hair off your neck to keep you cool! Talk with your stylist at your next appointment to keep this look frizz-free.

If you love a center part, consider a short vanilla blonde bob. The blunt cut with the center part creates a sleek, symmetrical, and fashion-forward look to the hair. Lightening the hair and creating a vanilla blonde brings light and warmth to the face. If you have naturally darker hair, try opting for a more caramel shade of blonde for your bob. For a more playful and fun look, try tucking one side behind your ear to give the illusion of an asymmetrical cut.

#26: Straight Jawline Bob

Consider the classic shape of a straight jawline bob. The current bob trend is a clean line the same length all around, minus a fringe, for a strong visual impact. I recommend getting your part in the correct spot when you get your cut. This way, you won’t have any trouble with overhanging edges. Your blowout will be simple with a large round brush and a smoothing lotion. The jawline bob suits most face shapes and will reward you with its beautiful style.

#27: Short One-Length Cut with Straight Ends

Choose a short one-length slob cut with straight ends if you have a long or oval face shape. Or pick this cut if you want to create a fuller look to your hair and face. Opting for a chin-length bob helps to create the illusion of width. And it can help to create balance in an oval or long face shape. The hair being one length also creates a fuller and more voluminous look to the hair. This is great for fine to medium hair. Straightening the ends adds a clean, blunt line to the haircut, which gives the cut a dramatic look. Try getting your hair cut into a bob with a center part. This will ensure that you can wear it with a center, left, or right part, and it will still balance.

You’ll love the no-nonsense shape of a medium-rounded bob for thick hair. The shape is super stylish, and the middle part is trending. You’ll want one-length layers to create the most prominent bob-line. Thick hair ladies will easily style the shape with a round brush. A flat iron can manage unruly textures, and try Redken’s Shine Flash Glass for extra luster.

#29: Modern Slob with Invisible Layers

A modern slob with invisible layers is a stylish shape with a bit of softness. Ask your stylist to point-cut the long layers to create movement and soften the blunt line. This technique will allow some swing on the top layer and help your cut last longer. The minimal layers added will also allow you to move your part off to the side if desired. Consider adding curl with a 3/4 inch iron and a light hairspray for versatility.

#30: Dark Hair Classic Slob

The dark hair classic slob is giving off major French girl vibes! This short hairstyle looks great with light browns, rich brunettes, and deep, dark black hues.

Try Color Wow’s Dream Coat Supernatural Spray Anti-Frizz Treatment. It will help to keep this style smooth and humidity-proof to keep your hair looking great.

Short Sleek Slob Cut Bob with Full Blonde Highlights and Dark Roots

#34: Short Bob with Full-Blonde Highlights

Consider a short bob with full blonde highlights if you have fine or medium hair. It makes the hair appear more full. Highlighting the hair causes the cuticle layer to get plumped or roughened. This adds texture and volume to the hair, creating the illusion of fuller and thicker hair. If you have naturally darker hair, opt for a root shadow so your hair grows out with no strong lines of demarcation. To upkeep this cut, I recommend a 6-8 week trim touch-up to maintain the length and style.

If you’re considering getting a slob haircut, you may be wondering what advice you need to consider your hair texture, face shape, and styling needs. Ryna Jerrick, an expert stylist, shares her expertise and experience to help you make informed decisions.

Hair Texture Matters

When it comes to hair texture, Jerrick suggests that fine to medium hair that is straight to slightly wavy works best with the slob. However, if you have thicker hair or some curl, you may have to fight your natural texture to stay smooth and not too poofy.

Face Shape Considerations

Jerrick recommends that you consider your face shape when getting a slob. Think about what features you want to highlight and what features you want to diminish. For example, if you have a square face, cutting your hair to your jawline will accentuate that jawline. If you want more balance, opt for a little bit more length. If you have a rounder face, get a very soft angle to have more balance with the face shape. Since there are no layers, Jerrick feels that oval and heart face shapes have less to consider.

Styling Tips and Tricks

Great styling starts with proper prep, says Jerrick. She recommends Redken Volume Injection to wash and condition fine texture hair, Redken All Soft for medium-texture hair, and Redken Frizz Dismiss for thicker and/or hair with a little curl pattern. Jerrick’s go-to styling products for fine hair with a slob are Redken Quick Blowout paired with Redken Big Blowout. She opts for Redken Quick Blowout for medium-texture hair paired with Redken All Soft Moisture Restore. Finally, for thicker hair and hair with a little curl pattern, she suggests Redken Quick Blowout with Redken Frizz Dismiss Instant Deflate Oil-in-serum.

Jerrick recommends using the Sam Villa 3 in 1 Blow Dry Hot Brush to style your hair after applying products. If your hair texture requires a flat iron, use Redken Thermal Spray 11 Low Hold to protect up to 450 degrees while adding shine.
