Celebrities have recently been ditching their long locks in favor of chic bob haircuts. From super sleek and straight styles to those featuring slight texture, these blunt-cropped looks serve as hair goals for many people.
1. Textured Bob
An angled bob with a messy finish is ideal for women with fine hair, providing extra volume while remaining more natural-looking. As Karrueche Tran shows us, combining hers with side-swept bangs and natural balayage for an additional flattering touch makes the style all the more striking. This bob’s angular cut, complete with its deep side part and honey-blonde shade, draws attention to facial features such as jawline and chin. A deep side part creates an asymmetrical style while providing an appealing ombre effect. The textured bob is perfect for anyone experimenting with hair colors, as its unique character adds dimension. From sleek and smooth one day to flirtatiously messy the next – this style gives your personality wings! Its uneven texture brings out its vibrancy beautifully; this style can work for curly and straight locks when done correctly!
2. Rounded Undercut
A bob can be tailored to your facial structure and personal aesthetic, with different lengths available to meet the demands of different face shapes and lifestyles. A stylist will also take into account which styles require more maintenance. The angled bob is ideal to complement many faces, featuring short layers at the nape and longer ones on each side, creating an undulating shape. It works well with different hair textures and makes for an attractive yet low-maintenance bob look. Jourdan Dunn models an eye-catching modern version of a chin-length bob haircut featuring textured layers and long, sweeping fringes to complement her neutral blonde locks. Her look showcases how versatile chin-length haircuts can be; for an edger look, try one featuring longer layers on one side – perfect for thicker locks who wish to keep their bob shorter than usual!
3. Thick hair with Short Fringe
Opting for a blunt bob with straight locks may not suit every face shape; texture can add dimension while being easier to style. Try a short-layered choppy bob with a face-framing fringe for a chic and sensual look. You can wear this bob with its side-swept edge or sleek it back like Iman for an effortless, trendy style. Either way, this style makes the ideal hairstyle for thick hair while showing off its gorgeous balayage color! Mushroom Stacked Bob: Another recommended style by stylists for thick hair is the mushroom stacked bob, which features a more subdued front-to-back length difference and works best on wavy locks; to maximize volume, use a volumizing spray for an extra boost!
4. Money Piece Hair
Money piece hair, popular among TikTok influencers and seen across Instagram influencers alike, is easy to brighten any style with minimal upkeep required. Money piece hair highlighting can create a natural-looking sun-kissed effect in both long and short locks with its high contrast effect and ability to grow out gradually with minimal upkeep requirements. Though this highlighting technique is typically applied with blonde or light brown tones, you can also experiment with other colors for an exciting and varied effect. Copper accents will give an exciting pop to any look, while ashy tones provide a striking contrast. Trusting in your colorist to suggest the ideal shade to compliment your skin tone is paramount, while regular touch-ups with color-safe shampoo to maintain healthy locks are recommended to preserve their beauty and prevent further breakage. Color-safe shampoo offers an economical alternative to all-over dyeing; ideal for budget-conscious individuals or those not wanting the commitment associated with a full head of highlights.
