What Is A Bob Haircut?
A bob cut, also known as a bob, is a short to medium length haircut in which hair is usually cut straight around the head at approximately jaw level, but no longer than shoulder-length. The standard bob cut keeps all of the hair well above the shoulders.
Bobs can be cut all one length or with a bit of layering added for some movement. You can add some bangs to bring out your cheekbones or slim a rounder face. For an edgier look, consider an asymmetric bob cut, which features shorter hair in the back and longer hair in the front for the best of both worlds.
What Is A Lob Haircut?
The lob earned its name because it’s a take on the original bob haircut. A lob is a little longer than a regular bob (bob + long bob = lob). Typically, the length of the long bob haircut falls somewhere between the chin and collarbone, just below the shoulders.
The lob is also a super popular haircut because it looks great on all face shapes and is great for slimming down rounder faces that may not work as well with the shorter bob style (I personally cannot pull off a bob with my round face!).
The lob is great for someone looking to lose some length but not too much length. Lobs can be all one length or cut with layers and/or bangs for more depth. Add some gorgeous chunky waves or a highlight shade to add more volume and movement to this look.
Fabulous Bob Haircuts
Highlight a gorgeous jawline with a flattering bob haircut. Bobs are great for adding volume to thin hair because the hair doesn’t fall past the shoulders and removes excess weight that can load down your roots.
Bobs can be styled all straight, with an under-curl at the bottom, or with beachy waves. Get some bob styling inspiration below!
