The classic blunt A-line bob is a timeless hairstyle that works for almost any face shape. It typically falls right between the jaw and the shoulder.

With the angled front falling well below the collarbone, this lob is as sexy as it is sleek. The deep black hue enhances the mystique.

If you want to make a statement, team the bleached tresses with pastel highlights and ample volume. Tease around the crown of the head with a fine toothcomb and use hairspray to recreate a bob with just as much height and volume as shown in the image.
Angled cuts by nature give an illusion of volume to fine strands. When your hairdo is choppy and layered, it enhances the fullness even more. Another perk—you don’t have to worry about the layers being neat and kept because the frizz only complements the cool style.

Angled bob hairstyles don’t always have to rely on sharp and dramatic cuts to be modern and trendy. Only a little longer in the front than the back, it’s a big enough difference to count. The slanting lines mixed with subtle layers give it volume, while highlights throughout enhance the appearance of depth.

Slightly stacked in the back, this angled bob is great for those with very straight hair. The main shape of the style cradles the back of the head, seeming almost to be a Flapper Style, but the point below the ears says otherwise.
The jet black base against the vibrant violet highlights creates a punk-inspired ‘do that transcends the trends. The sleek lines and fun colors are a timeless choice for someone trying to show off their edgier side while still keeping the coif a little playful.
To lengthen a round face, you want to keep the front longer. Try light side swept bangs, which can be longer or shorter, and make sure to give the ends a bit of texture. Faint burgundy at the tips allows the style to glow from underneath.
If you love the idea of a short cut but can’t bring yourself to chop off all your locks, why not compromise with a long angled bob. Hold onto your length with a longer front, and opt for a stacked back to get that desired ease that goes with short hair.
With vibrant or bold color choices, it’s best to go with a sleek coif. When the hair is short and straight, it makes the electric hue the main focus.

Classic cuts like wavy lobs are the perfect canvas for more adventurous colors. They tone down the fun color so that your hairstyle is suitable for the office or class. Try a muted shade, like this subdued lilac, for a hairdo that spotlights your personality while still looking polished.
These angled bob ideas are super appealing and definitely worth trying! While some styles suit certain people, most can work for anyone, anywhere. Next time you want to refresh your medium-length haircut, be sure to visit your stylist and have them give you one of these chic new looks!
