Blunt, inverted, stacked, wavy, straight, polished, tousled, asymmetrical and even shaved… Have we forgotten any short bob? Though rather limited in their length to about the chin level (or shorter), these crops are really versatile to suit any personal features. We can’t wait to delve into the newest short bob hair trends. Let’s roll!
Short Bob Hairstyles:
Fine tresses look fuller when the top is darker than the ends, and a side part creates this elevated bend for dimension in the front.
This straight hair is a bit layered and feathered to create some movement and an airy touch.
The thick mane arrests the eye with its volume and density, but there is always a chance to add texture through sliced and highlighted strands.
Bob Haircuts for Different Face Shapes:
This round face pulls off the classic bob with round-brushed styling and soft bangs that draw attention to the eyes and bring in a French flair.
Here, a piece-y side-swept fringe hides the forehead and creates a diagonal line to follow, thus balancing the long face.
This heart-shaped face looks gorgeous thanks to the chic Parisian bob with short wavy bangs and side locks, textured and angled towards the cheekbones.
The square shape of this face is handsomely softened by face-framing curves, while some elongation is given through the elevated top and sliced pieces.
Oval faces can pull off blunt bobs with a center parting easily, since the graphic hairstyle produces a nice face-framing effect with an edgy feel.
Short Layered Bob Hairstyles:
This cute rose copper bob comes with bangs and subtle layers just to give a bit of texture for a laid-back look.
Delicate babylights add shine to these thin locks, saving them from a dull look, while layering allows for enhanced dimension.
Not all modern bobs are undercut. You can also go for a current update of the classic bob. This thick and coarse hair is nicely debulked with layers, getting a clear shape and light feel.
And the inverted bob in this photo is heavily layered, featuring short tresses on the crown to give a lift and longer strands in the front to retain density.
Here, beautiful auburn locks are cut with a touch of asymmetry and adorned with long and wispy side bangs that can blend with side tresses for diversity in styling.
The blonde bob is all movement thanks to both highlights and layers, styled back and forth haphazardly.
