The bob hairstyle is perhaps one of the most sought-after among modern ladies of any age. It is one of the classic haircuts and stands for class and individual style. Because of its medium length, it is practical, not too high-maintenance and suits almost every face shape. A layered bob is perfect for women who don't have a lot of time to style every day but want to look well-groomed.
What is a layered bob?
The layered bob hairstylecan vary in length, but usually the hair is chin length in the shorter versions and reaches the shoulders in the slightly longer ones. This makes this haircut one of the practical, medium-length ones that also offer several styling options. Basically, the layered bob follows the motto: 'long at the front, short at the back'. Depending on the hair structure and face shape, the appropriate length and the extent to which the hair is layered is chosen with the support of an experienced hairdresser.
Different lengths and variations of the layered bob
Long at the front, short at the back
And here you can see a few examples of what the angled bob looks like from behind. The hairat the neck are cut shorter, so that the party appears much fuller and voluminous at the top.
Angled variations for more volume
If you lack volume, the layered bob may be the best solution. The hair is cut in many layers, especially at the back of the head. The volume is achieved through the relatively short strands. Blow dry once with a round brush and it's donethe perfect hair stylingcomplete. In order to really show off the great hairstyle, it is advisable to incorporate highlights into the hair color. Opt for natural, golden tones.
Prominent examples of the layered bob
Layered, medium-length hair can be styled in a variety of ways. For this reason, many stars opt for it, simply for a change or to give themselves a fresh appearance. Model Gig Hadid recently shortened her long mane significantly. At the recent American Music Awards, she wore her hair slicked back and with a slight wet effect. Appropriately, she has very natural make-up.
Keira Knightley and her messy look
A layered bob is a good choice of hairstyle for square faces, like that of Hollywood star Keira Knightley. The actress has thick hair, so the hair is left a little longer and not layered much so that it falls beautifully and naturally on her shoulders. Matching the boho dress made of fine lace in nude tones, a simple 'messy' look is achieved. Tousled hair is not necessarily unattractive.
Kirsten Dunst loves the classic haircut
Although the trend hairstyle is precisely defined, there is an incredible amount of variation and scope. The tiers offer multiple options for styling. A nice example is Kirsten Dunst, who stays true to the popular hairstyle. Straightened or with light waves, the haircut always presents a well-groomed look without much effort.
The inspirationvon Jennifer Lawrence
We can gather inspiration for good hair styles from the Hollywood actress Jennifer Lawrence. In the picture you can see three variations of the same hairstyle - straightened, with a side parting and with a medium one. Thanks to the shorter layers on the top of the head and on the top layer, the hair can be styled easily.
Taylor Swift wears a short layered bob with bangs
A straight-cut fringe adds a strict touch to the look. Back then it conveyed independence and is a statement for emancipation. Thus, attention was drawn to the face and eyes, as singer Taylor Swift's stylists did.
Styling for different hair structures
WithNatural curls or curly
Women with naturally curly hair usually find it difficult to find the right haircut for their cheeky hair and style it afterwards. Then stylists simply recommend having them cut in several stages. However, you should only rely on experienced hands, otherwise you risk appearing like a bushy nest. Above all, it is important where the steps begin. On the other hand, medium length layered curly hair looks wonderful. You should just try it.
Withtips turned outwards
It looks particularly chic when the strands around the face are left longer in the long bob. Blow-dried outwards or simply twisted with a curling iron to create an immediate boho look. It looks particularly nice when these strands are a little lighter than the base hair color.
Short bob without bangs perfect for thin hair
The special thing about this hairstyle is the incorporated layers, which gently merge into one another and create visual volume. For this reason, it is ideal for women with fine, thin hair. Even full hair can never be too voluminous. It is only recommended to choose a length up to your shoulders.
Experiments with hair color and cut
With side parting and romantic rose blonde highlights
A layered bob is often a transitional length to long hair. It is also a good solution if your long hair is stressed and looks unhealthy. This medium length is perfect statement of modernity and independence, qualities that every contemporary woman possesses.
Withplatinum blonde hair
The functional length leaves plenty of scope, including for experimenting with hair color, without having to really harm your hair. Often women opted for bold colors when their hair is not very long. It makes sense, not only because of the care, but also because of the effort involved in monthly coloring.
AsymmetricalwithSide parting
To emphasize the asymmetrical haircut, you can part the side and blow-dry your hair nice and straight. The tips can be beautifully shaped inwards with a round brush and bent around the contours of the face. This means the classic cut never looks boring or old-fashioned.
Undercut, Sidecut und etc.
For the brave ladies there are also variants with an undercut or sidecut. You can cover the shaved or very short cut area with the longer layers. Shaving on the neck, which can be seen when the hair is tied back, has become very trendy.
