Last time someone asked me about the French bob, she was at my chair and had a photo of a woman in a documentary in Paris and said, “I want to look like I don’t try but I obviously do.” And I mean, that’s the vibe with this cut. The French bob is one of the only styles that looks finished and unfinished at the same time, and especially for Black women’s hair, this cut really plays with the texture and density in such a unique way. The same chin-grazing length can look totally different depending on whether someone has their coils out, blown out, or something in between.
From what I have observed with this shape over the years, it not only helps with bone structure, but creates the illusion of bone structure as well. The cut sits right at the jaw, and because of that, you can have a really nice frame, regardless of what is going on with your face. And because it’s short enough to show your neck but long enough to be tucked behind your ears, a short bob has much more versatility than longer ones. I’ve done this cut on women with 4C coils and women with relaxed hair and each time I’ve left thinking ‘yes, that’s the one’. So here’s some of my favourite variations of it, each a little different, but that’s the whole point.
#1: Brushed-Out French Bob with a Little Lift at the Temples
This style has that classic softness and chin-grazing internal graduation. The person who did the end point cutting knew what they were talking about! My favourite detail is how flatteringly the weight was removed from the temples to reveal the cheekbones without creating a thinness on the sides. It gives that rounded fullness, which is great for photos. The only downside is the round brush and blow dryer are going to be necessary for the chin-brushing, and if you have really dense hair some interior thinning will be needed to prevent a helmet head look.
#2 Deep Side Part with Sculpted Layers and That Perfect S-Wave
The deep side part plays a big role here in creating a nice diagonally sweeping look across the forehead. The sculpted graduation (internal layering) inside the cut adds crown height without leaving any layering on the outside. The midsection is finished with a gentle S-wave which looks like it has come from some roller setting, or a very patient blow dry. The subtle micro-lowlights are placed on the midlengths and catch the light beautifully at just the right height. This hairstyle looks effortless, but actually requires a lot of design work. To achieve this look, it is essential to get the internal layering balanced with a blunt perimeter and root smudge to make it work every single day.
#3 Angled French Bob with Warm Highlights and Long Side Fringe
The energy this haircut has is amazing. The way the back is slightly longer than the front paired with a long side bang is very cute. The soft inward dip at the nape is modern with no stacking because of the micro-layers and internal graduation. Framing like this is perfect for an oval face. The shape is nice and well constructed but the warm highlights will need some maintenance and you will have to get used to some sort of smoothing routine, whether that be a blowout, a flat iron, or both.
#4 Sunlit Caramel French Bob with Barrel Waves
There is so much happening with this haircut, and I love how the color and the style come together! The caramel high temple balayage brightens the face nicely, and the root melt keeps the color from looking stripey or disconnected. The interior stacking gives it that lovely soft roll under at the ends which really pulls it all together. I can see this working beautifully on anyone with an oval or heart face, and it will need a lot of styling commitment because those loose barrel waves are going to need a tension blowout (or a 1 to 1.25 inch barrel iron) and the bleached face-framing pieces will need regular toning to look this good.
#5 Angled French Bob with Subtle Lowlights
I admire your discretion. There’s just the right amount of angle here so that the face-framing lowlights give dimension without saying, “I just got highlights.” With loose wavy medium density hair, the interior graduation will give you enough of a crown lift so you don’t look flat on the top, and the angled perimeter is really flattering for opening up the jawline. The ends are lightened just enough that you’ll want to keep an eye on the brassiness as it develops, and if you prefer a sleeker version of this texture you’re probably gonna want to use a smoothing iron. For the point cut ends and shallow root shadow, ask so that everything blends without a harsh line.
#6 Swooped and Feathered French Bob with Espresso Root Melt
Every aspect of this haircut is soft. The feathered perimeter flips under, and the side-swept swoop sits just right for the face. The espresso root melt is the added richness and the color is not heavy. On fine to medium-textured hair this shape actually works the best because point cut ends and the movement from round brushing are what finer hair truly tends to struggle with. The reality is that you will need to heat style this haircut every day if you want to keep that swoop. This cut will not be realistic without straightening if you have tight natural curls.
#7 Rounded Bob with a See-Through Micro Fringe
What sets this style apart is the micro fringe. It’s so fine it’s almost transparent, sitting just above the eyebrows. This offers the faintest framing of the forehead without any weight. The bob is rounded with internal graduation and soft point cuts at the ends that create that curved shape you see. With medium density and relaxed or straightened hair, this will be an easy round brush finish and off you go. The only thing is, a fringe that light will need very careful shaping especially in tighter coil patterns because it may want to shrink or separate. The perimeter will also need a lot of skill to avoid that bottom heavy look.
#8 Rich Chocolate French Bob with Broken Micro Fringe
Reflecting on the chocolate brown hue, I’d say it is beautifully rich. nIt is a warm brown that does not cross over to being red brown. The broken translucent fringe adds to the personality of the hairstyle without the commitment of a full fringe. The soft, loose waves have just the right amount of step graduation and point cutting on the ends to create sittable and movable layers, and I love that slight crown lift that is probably from a natural cow lick. I particularly love that the stylist embraced the lift, instead of fighting it, and it all works beautifully on an oval face.nThe fringe actually requires a little daily maintenance with a mini flat iron or fingers and some light product. However, I do want to mention that very coarse or tight coil curls may not allow it to sit the same way, but for the right texture it is pretty effortless.
#9 Copper French Bob with a Soft Root Shadow
I love how warm copper shades compliment darker skin tones, and with your hair color, paired with a subtle root shadow, gives your hair a depth that single-process coppers just can’t achieve. The rounded French bob shape uses internal graduation and pointed cut ends to create a face-framing perimeter, which softens the look and makes it seem less blunt. If your hair is naturally straight to slightly wavy and of medium density, the silhouette will lift beautifully at the crown, and the nape will look very clean. Unfortunately, copper tones can be a lot of work. They will need regular glossing appointments, color-depositing conditioner in between visits, and will definitely require some upkeep with the color. Keep in mind the hair also needs to be smoothed and rounded, which usually involves some heat, so you may want to consider that when making your decision.
#10 Blown-Smooth French Bob with Internal Graduation
The hair’s texture looks natural and has been blowed out. The softness and body of the hair show that no flat iron was used. The deep side part asymmetrically divides the hair and the inner stacking technique gives the thickness that skims the cheekbones. There is also a slight crown lift for more volume on top so that the crown doesn’t look flat. This looks very skillfully done hair of medium to high density. The truth is that this hairstyle calls for a nice round brush blowout and a smoothening product to control flyaways along the perimeter of the hairstyle. But, this hairstyle works best if that has been part of your routine already.
#11 Caramel-Lit Coily French Bob with a Sculpted Side Sweep
Wow! I love this one. Those tight 3C/4A coils are doing their magic. The warmth and volumizing of the curls combined with the internal graduation that holds the perimeter rounded while the crown is a bit tapered so it doesn’t mushroom out. The warm caramel micro lights are concentrated on the front and outer ringlet which is really smart because it adds depth and brightness right where we want it without lightening the roots. For oval faces, wanting more volume, this is a killer option. With more shrinkage a styling window set is shorter, and if you pair it with a good curl cream and a diffuser as an uninterrupted part of your daily routine it’s gonna be worth it.
#12 Polished French Bob with Forward-Weighted Fringe
The forward-weighted fringe provides great framing without going full bang; it gives the impression the hair is simply falling forwards at the sides. It’s the internal graduation and rounded perimeter that provide the classic French bob shape, and this will sit beautifully on medium-density relaxed or blow-dried hair. I also think this cut works quite well with some salt-and-pepper at the temples, the fringe almost covers it too well to hide it to look like that was the intention. A round-brush blow out or smoothing iron will be needed for that curved finish, and without the straightening, tight coils won’t hold this shape.
#13 Rounded French Bob with a Long Side-Swept Panel
This hairstyle’s most prominent characteristic is the long, deep side-swept fringe, which offers a forward contour that softens the wearer’s features and accentuates their earrings beautifully. With the subtle interior graduation, the bulk is kept low at the nape for a neat outline so coily hair that has been smoothed and is medium to thick is best. This hairstyle has a lovely shape, the only downside being that heat and smoothing products along with some anti-humidity spray are necessary to keep it looking sleek and I wouldn’t recommend it for fine, limp hair as it requires some volume to hold that panel in the right position. For this look, you should tell the stylist that you want a defined side part and soft ear tuck asymmetry.
#14 Glossy Bob with a Whisper-Soft Micro Fringe
The shine on this hair is incredible and the micro fringe is soft and looks imperfectly perfect which gives the hair a nice, natural look and not stiff! The inward curve is created by internal graduation with a forward-weighted perimeter and on fine to medium density straight or heat styled hair, it looks clean and lightweight. It face-frames beautifully, Lastly, you will need some heat styling to achieve this look as well as some precision cutting to maintain the shape, however, if you blow dry your hair regularly, this is the cut that will make that effort feel worth it!
#15 Chestnut French Bob with Curtain Fringe and Babylights
I enjoy how the curtain bangs and babylights work together to create an effect capturing light on the face framing pieces. Everything feels warm and alive. The chestnut base color has depth, and the internal graduation at the crown offers a rounded lift. The vertically point cut ends create a gentle inward flip, which is very French. This looks great on medium to thick, relaxed or loose straight hair, and with the rounded silhouette shape of the cut and a nice blowout to keep it polished. With a gloss toner to ensure the babylights don’t warm up too much, this is not a wash and go situation.
#16 Forward-Weighted Curly French Bob with Deep Side Part
It’s amazing to see hair types 3C to 4A in a bob! The coil provides an extra layer of personality and sass that a straight hair bob simply cannot capture. The deep side part and temple tuck open the face up and offer a lifted appearance while still retaining the rounded silhouette from the internal graduation and slight crown stack. Such density in hair goes hand in hand with a curls-by-curls approach to cutting to ensure the style doesn’t come off as overly bulky and does justice to the tapered perimeter. The shape will absolutely be worth the ongoing effort that will be required to manage shrinkage and define curl clumps.
#17 Polished French Bob with Rounded Perimeter and Soft Baby-Hair Detail
The baby hairs at the hairline really customize the cut and soften what could be a sharp edge. The rounded perimeter and slight internal graduation give a nice light crown lift and the cheek-length framing is so flattering on an oval face. This will create a controlled polished silhouette and frame nicely with medium to thick heat styled or relaxed natural hair. To achieve that tucked under finish requires flat-ironing so if you want a lot of natural curl or airy texture, this isn’t the direction I’d steer you.
#18 French Bob Shaped for Glasses
When you wear glasses, you can bump your glasses when you style your hair or your glasses slide down your nose, so it’s hard to find a hairstyle that works. This hairstyle solves that problem. This style is a Soft Forward-Weighted Fringe with Internal Graduation, which allows the ends of the hair to sit under the jawline. This haircut also has a Temple Sculpted Perimeter which aids in avoiding an awkward or bunched look. This style looks polished, clean, and professional with relaxed hair. The look works best with medium density, and the inward curve will require a blowout. But for glasses wearers, this is the perfect style.
#19 Soft Textured French Bob with Wispy Fringe and Auburn Lowlights
The delicate feathered fringe here lightly blends with the hair, offering an almost weightless touch to the frontal framing. The espresso base with subtle auburn lowlights adds a depth that is rich in person, but not overpowering. The internal point cut layering with some crown graduation offers lift and a rounded perimeter that is very flattering to an oval face. The fringe will need daily styling and the lowlights will soften in time. Overall, the shape and balance is very good, and the hair is well done.
#20 Warm Chestnut French Bob with Money-Piece Micro Highlights
The micro highlights brighten the entire face while being subtle. The warm chestnut base has richness while the warm depth divides with razor soft perimeter layers which softens the bulk perfectly preserving that polished French bob shape. On heat smoothed textures of this medium density, this is a versatile cut that you can style slightly differently to and still looks intentional. Considerable reliance on heat for styling to maintain that sleek shape along with regular glossing to keep those highlights from shifting warmer than you want.
#21 Rounded French Bob with Caramel Babylights and Stacked Nape
These babylights and face-framing highlights are designed to do one thing, and that is to bring out those gorgeous green-hazel eyes, and they do wonderfully. The stacked nape and feathered internal layers create a built in lift and allow soft movement, especially on that medium-thick loose-wave texture. The way the lighter pieces also play into the freckles and the warm undertones of the skin is superb. The shape will require a round-brush blowout, and the babylights will need maintenance, but it’s really lovely and all the upkeep is worth it if this palette works with your coloring.
#22 Softly Stacked French Bob with Warm Caramel Balayage
The back has a nice vertical lift, which is why I’m always recommending that back short inner layering to create that nice push to lift everything forward. Plus, the micro-flicked ends that are point cut are going to give a nice outward flare for that good extra width. This more so for narrower face shapes or those who want that good width in their hair without too much volume. The loose waves with the warm caramel of the root smudge and balayage really well with a good range of 2A to a 2C. As for the definition of those waves, a good styling cream is a must plus something for that fine halo of frizz at the crown, but it is a worthy effort for a very good end result.
#23 Short Burgundy French Bob with a Wispy Micro-Fringe
The ear-to-chin cut with soft micro fringes and cropped crown layers beautifully frames oval and heart shapes. For that big bouffant look, point cut texturing lets your curls be airy instead of clumping. A vivid burgundy is going to fade fast, so you’ll have to use color depositing conditioners (and reapply them a lot!) to keep your color looking fresh between appointments. Curls reflect light in each ringlet, so that color will give your cut a jewel-toned effect! That burgundy color looks incredible on 3A to 3B curls! Your hair is high porosity, so the ends will lift quickly and the micro fringe will need a little detail work with sharp scissors to keep doing its thing. Your crown lift and everyday styling are going to be awesome!
#24 Silver French Bob with Tucked Ends
I love this woman’s silver hair and this cut really shows it off! The soft internal layers roll the ends under to create a gentle, elegant, and non-stiff roll. For an oval face and straight to wavy mid-density hair, I love the crown with lift and soft frame around the temples!! The subtle root shadow provides enough contrast to keep the silver looking flat. Fine and light hair may need a bit of mousse or a round brush blow dry at the roots for lift, but with the right texture, it should be nearly wash and go.
#25 Tight-Coil French Bob with Micro Fringe
French bobs and micro fringes offer a fresh stylish and a bit casual appearance. For those looking to add a bit of flair and become a head turner, smooth corkscrew coils can create an incredibly textured style. Additional volume and bounce is added through internal layering, which also adds a rounded end appearance to the style. Precise dry shaping strands was done with bully corkscrew coils, which have a 30-40% shrinkage and retention rate. To achieve a good defined curl with a lot of finishing style and volume, you must use the right curl specific products. While this look can be difficult for some, French micro fringes are truly inspiring with the right person. This style is unmanageable for fine or lower density hair and the fringe will need reshaping as it grows.
#26 Rounded French Bob with Feathered Micro-Fringe and Early Silver
This style works with the early silver that builds up at the temples and part nicely. It doesn’t hide the silver, but it doesn’t make it the primary focus of the style either. The feathered micro-fringe and soft internal layers lift the crown and soften the jaw. The shape won’t require much daily heat styling to maintain, especially on fine to medium hair with medium density. The internal tapering needs to be done well, or it can look bulky instead of airy and light. The concentrated silver may require a clear or light violet gloss treatment to appear intentional instead of a full dye.
#27 Silver-Gray French Bob with a Deep Side Part
This bob is silver-gray and has a deep side part, which sweeps hair toward one side of the forehead, creating an asymmetrical face frame. The rounded perimeter of soft internal graduation classic the flipping of the ends under in a way that is timeless. The silver regrowth streak that contrasts the part looks intentional and adds a unique touch to the hair. On straight to slightly wavy hair of medium density, this hairstyle keeps a clean, low-bulk silhouette and an elegant flow. A blowout or smoothing is required to achieve the inward curl, and tight coils will need to be straightened to get this silhouette.
#28 Polished French Bob with a Soft Temple Taper
The frame and barrel-blowout finish are the types that people stop you to ask who does your hair. Internal layering and slight under bevels tuck the ends under the jaw in a way that looks completely natural as if your hair just curves perfectly. This style is one of the most universally flattering on oval faces in the medium straight to loose wave texture. The soft tapers at the temples and the baby hairs add to the elevation of the cut. It does need heat to hold the flip and to maintain those details but the end result is worth the effort.
#29 Softly Tucked French Bob with a Wispy See-Through Fringe
Though the fringe is straight and wisped out, it can be suggested and not stated. But for straight, heat-smoothed, medium-density hair, it is the softest face framing option available. The delicate internal graduation and the forward weight line finish with a clean tuck at the nape. This design offers light framing while maintaining no excessive bulk and beautifully frames the oval face. Daily thermal styling is a must for the fringe and finished look. This style won’t hold if you have very tight coils, unless you blow it out or do some serious smoothing. Basically, it is very high maintenance.
#30 Sleek French Bob with Micro Fringe
The vibe of this style is neat and tidy. The blunt perimeter and internal gradient with a soft undercut tuck behind the ear gives a polished appearance. This style is simple and fast to do on oval shaped faces with medium density hair that is straight to slightly wavy. A quick tension blow-dry followed by a flat iron and you will be good to go. If you have fine hair, the blunt ends may appear skinny. Also, the micro fringe may draw attention to the forehead more, so that is something to think about. Point cutting with interior texturizing helps to soften the look so that it doesn’t appear overly extreme.
#31 Polished French Bob with a Sheer, Micro-Notched Fringe
The micro-notched fringe is a detail that provides great consideration on this cut; it’s thin enough to see the forehead, keeping the look light and modern instead of bulky. The blunt perimeter with internal layering and point-cutting at the crown creates a forward-weighted flip that has great, airy movement. This looks great on straight, fine to medium hair of medium density, as it simply frames the cheekbones and requires only a quick blowout to look done. When considering this cut, be aware of the cowlick in the fringe area, as that in combination with heavy natural curls will fight the blunt line, so know your texture before committing.
#32 A-Line French Bob with Caramel Money Piece
The money piece is meant to create brightness and focal points on the face as well as provide a subtle framing against the chestnut base and soft root shadow which adds dimension in a way that isn’t too much or out of place. The A-line shape with a rounded outer perimeter and soft internal nape graduation is modern and classy. On heat activated natural texture with medium density, this is more polished and more refined. While it requires heat to stay sleek, the highlighted ends are more maintenance and it is less forgiving on tighter coils that have not been relaxed or styled thermally. The end result is stunning.
#33 Short Textured French Bob with Built-In Crown Lift
Cowlicks are often seen as nuisance when it comes to bobs, but here is the proof that they can actually work in your favor. Instead of trying to tame the cowlick, the stylist embraced it by using interior point cutting and slide cutting to allow the hair to naturally lift at the crown. The result is a shape that is super textured and has that effortless, I-just-rolled-out-of-bed look. Combined with the light temple taper, this style is gorgeous on 2A to 2B hair that has a looser wave pattern. While some sort of styling paste or mousse is generally required to achieve this shape, it’s worth it if you have hair that has some natural body. However, if your hair is very fine and limp, you may not be able to achieve this look.
#34 Warm Bronze Angled French Bob with Soft Side Sweep
The gentle bronzing on the left side of the cut is a good choice. It is subtle enough to be overlooked, but, overall, it gives a nice glow and warmer more dimensional feel. The diagonal internal graduation gives the perimeter a slight angle which allows fine to medium textured hair of medium density to move, and the soft heat wave style makes it feel more soft than sharp. The crown lift and lovely face framing are the wins here. The warm color does need glossing to control brass, and very tight natural coils would require a completely different technique to achieve this smooth sweep.
#35 Chin-Length Curly French Bob with Soft Broken Fringe
The 3A to 3B curls really do look great, and so does the soft broken fringe! The crown area pivot really does accentuate the shape without the use of heavy stacking, and that is how you prevent a curly bob from looking like a triangle. High density hair really does require that additional effort in shaping to sit nicely. The face framing is good, the low heat is good, and the movement is nice and light. There will need to be some curl by curl dry shaping, a decent curl cream to prevent everything from going out of control, and the fringe might separate if it has looser coils and may need some slide cut blending to keep it looking intentional. But for curly hair clients, this is a really nice shape.
#36 Bouncy Curly Bob with Soft Curtain Bangs
This cut has such a nice bounce to it that I reached out to touch it! The soft curtain bangs frame the face in an effortless way, and the curls are so well defined and bouncy. You can tell the stylist knew exactly how much product to use, and that’s why the curls are perfect. The medium length and medium density curls provide a nice fullness that doesn’t overwhelm the features at all, and the shine in the curls is stunning. The curls will need a definining product between washes to maintain that level of definition, but for how put together it looks, the overall maintenance is very reasonable.
#37 Voluminous Curly Bob with Playful Bangs
Some bangs can be too childish looking, but these look fun! And because the volume is so great, it’ll look great on naturally curly and dense hair. This medium length is perfect because it’ll give you a lot of styles while still being easy to maintain. It’s fresh and youthful and doesn’t try to be something it’s not. You will need curl defining products to keep the shape of the curls day to day but this cut rewards the effort.
#38 Textured Curl-Forward Bob with Subtle Bangs
I appreciate your explanation of the length in relation to the structure and texture of the curls, especially as it chooses not to tame them anywhere above. With the length stated, the curls will have enough weight to stretch a little but will still spring up. The hair density will give you that bouncy, layered effect, while the bangs will simply frame the face and not overpower it. It’s that kind of style that gives the impression you really know how to style your hair. While initiating the routine will take some time, keeping the curls defined will become second nature.
#39 Textured French Bob with Soft Fringe
These bangs blend in so naturally that they probably could be styled that way, which is the target for fringe on texture. The length that sits just above the shoulders is so good with the hair’s natural texture and density and provides fullness without the weight. It’s so effortless. This shape is so flattering on round and oval face shapes. The bangs are more likely to need trimming than the rest of the cut, so be prepared to have a trim booked every three to four weeks, depending on how quick your hair grows. The look is playful and the upkeep is worth it.
#40 Blunt Bob with Soft Layered Bangs
This haircut’s clean look is due to the blunt bangs and perimeter as well as the soft layered bangs and versatility that the mid-length cut provides, sitting just above the collarbone. When straight and of medium density, hair looks particularly neat and tidy like in this instance. The shine is a good indicator of the quality of hair treatment, so well done. There is a bonus with blunt cuts, and that is the health look that is deliberate, which is a win as it stops it looking flat. To maintain this shape, it will definitely require more regular trims and daily styling will be easier than you think.
#41 Textured Bob with Soft Bangs and Natural Movement
This has an unfinished appearance that so many people want but few haircuts actually achieve. Soft bangs and a textured finish create lots of movement on naturally wavy hair. This chin-length cut accentuates the right features and doesn’t shorten the neck or make the jaw feel broader. On average density fine to medium hair, this feels so light and so easy. Occasional styling to maintain the texture is part of the deal, and if you suffer from colour treated hair, a deep conditioning treatment will enhance the shine and health that makes a cut like this look its best.
#42 Chocolate Bob with Wispy Bangs
The subtle chocolate shades are inviting and luscious, while the airy bangs introduce a level of lightness that helps to steer the overall look away from being overly structured or austere. My cut ends just above the shoulders and I opted to style it with my natural waves to create a fullness that looks more natural than artificial. This style, which looks unbothered in the best way, can literally be just rolled out of bed with little to no effort or it can be dressed up for fancy outings. The upkeep of bangs can be a pain, but if you have an oval or oblong face , as that is the most suited for this style, it is a pretty effortless and gorgeous look.
#43 Sleek Brown Bob with Textured Bangs and Subtle Back Layering
I always picture the soft layers at the back of this style. They create the ideal amount of movement so that when you turn your head, there’s a gentle, alluring sweep. The chin-length style with bangs that are textured and framed looks amazing with straightened hair, and the medium density offers more volume without being overly heavy. It can go from a Monday meeting to Friday drinks without needing to change anything, and that’s the kind of versatility I always aim to achieve for my clients. The only real commitment is regular trims to keep the shape.
#44 Asymmetrical Bob with a Side-Swept Detail
The subtlety of this asymmetry means that the more you notice the face as a whole rather than the individual components of the cut, the better the asymmetry is, in my opinion. The shoulder-length cut with a distinct side-swept look creates added depth and a sense of movement to fine hair of medium density. The gentle variation in color emphasizes the smooth lines and also warms the complexion. Although the cut is itself low maintenance and suits all face shapes, a light smoothing serum may be necessary to maintain a sleek finish.
#45 Modern Textured Bob with Soft Bangs and Styled Waves
The personality of this style comes from the whimsical wave and gentle movement which has been further enhanced by a straight style adding volume that is often absent in fine to medium density hair types.
Soft bangs gently frame the face and with the added length offers one of the most versatile shapes that can be styled a dozen different ways. It is especially great for oval and heart-shaped faces. Regular trims will keep the style from becoming shapeless and the everyday styling is really just a quick run through with a round brush or even just fingers and a bit of product.
#46 Sleek Chocolate Bob with Sharp Blunt Bangs
Not every client is able to pull off blunt bangs, but when they do it’s so striking! This sleek chocolate bob has a blunt cut that really highlights cheekbones and jaws in such a refined and intentional way. The chocolate hue is rich and gives dimension to the hair along with the fine to medium density which makes the ends look almost lacquered. This hairstyle is one there will be a lot of upkeep and maintenance to. The bangs will need consistent trims to keep the sharp look, and the bob will need to be kept at the same length. If you’re up for the commitment, the cut will be very rewarding.
#47 Textured Curly Bob with Face-Framing Layers
These curly bob face-framing layers highlight cheekbones. Because of this, the whole haircut has an uplifting, bouncy effect, giving an overall bright and lively appearance. This haircut works best on medium to thick hair. The natural curl pattern with sufficient movement and volume ends at the shoulders. A good definition and moisture product is necessary since the level of curl definition is intentional. The youthful look this cut provides will fit into your routine across multiple occasions.
#48 Curly Bob with Textured Bangs and Natural Shine
The curls have a nice shine which suggests even hydration and even product distribution since each curl lights up individually. The bangs have a gentle touch and help to frame the face and are not too heavy on the forehead. The rest of the hair with the mid length bouncy curls gives body and movement to the style without being too full or heavy, which is especially good for round and oval face shapes. The way the curls are styled makes this ideal for even more formal situations as it can be dressed up from a regular work look. The medium density means that it won’t be too overwhelming, but will give that full voluminous look.
#49 Curly Bob with Soft Bangs and Layered Movement
The running layers in this cut add an element of fun and interest to the style. It creates movement without losing the mass and fullness that thicker, curly hair naturally has. The soft bangs offer a lovely framing of the face and do it in a super casual way. The loose, bouncy, curled ends add a lively and youthful look that is not trying too hard to achieve that effect. It will require regular trims to keep that look. Curls need to sit perfectly so you don’t lose the shape as it grows. When it comes to styling, that is super easy as well. This look and style is soft, which will suit an oval and heart face shape the most.
#50 Curly Bob with Defined Waves and Natural Volume
Shoulder length cuts with soft waves makes for a clean and contemporary look. This style is best for medium to thick hair as it is naturally voluminous and requires little to no styling products. The natural texture does all the work, and coupled with a balayage will add even more dimension to the style. The waves are polished while the cut takes it from polished to casual with no effort. This is the look that the majority of clients are seeking when the come in.
