Haircutting expert Timothy Walkinhood has some excellent tips for those seeking a bob with bangs, particularly for those with a round face and various hair textures and thicknesses. He suggests opting for a more textured fringe instead of blunt or something longer on the sides instead of straight across to elongate the face and draw the eye upwards, minimizing the roundness.

Walkinhood advocates for a choppy or jagged look as it can offset a round face shape, creating a more balanced appearance. For fine hair, he suggests a stronger blunt bob with a heavier bang or curtain bang that’s still choppy on the ends and longer on the sides. He recommends a middle part, a choppier bob with more layers, and a wispy fringe or curtain bang for thick hair.

For straight hair, he always appreciates a blunt bob with tapered full bangs or even a heavier curtain bang. With curly or coily hair, Walkinhood advises a longer bob with layers and an uneven, full fringe or a side part with wispy, curly fringe framing the face.

Chic Blunt Bob with Bangs for Fine Hair

Chic Blunt Bob with Bangs for Fine Hair and Round Faces

I recommend a chic blunt bob with bangs for enhancing volume in fine hair. A blunt edge is essential when dealing with delicate strands to create the illusion of thickness.
