A traditional bob looks great with dark hair, but it looks even better with a few bright blonde highlights. Ask your colorist to place lighter shades towards your face and blend the highlights throughout the rest of the hair to complete the look.

Show off the shape of your cool lob cut with well-blended face-framing streaks. The short style enables you to use the power of trendy blonde highlights to draw attention to your face. Here, the bright blonde hair immediately directs you to the wearer’s eyes.
@eunicekimhair
How gorgeous does this cool blonde hair color look when paired with lagoon blue block highlights? Vibrant and full of glow, this magnificent bob hairstyle will sure get you noticed. Complement your look with matching make-up to draw even more attention.
@john.n1115
Dirty blonde locks and relaxed waves give this lob an effortless feel. Steer away from heavy layers to show off the thickness of your hair but go for shaggy highlighted ends to get a bright modern look. Keep your waves tousled to convey that beach babe charm.
@romeufelipe
For those who want a flowing hairstyle, a bob can sound too rigid. However, a haircut with long curtain bangs can let you easily achieve that flowy blown-out look and even experiment with hair parting. The key here is a symmetrical cut with a few long layers in the front.
@salsalhair
If you wear traditional short bob hairstyles for a longer time, it is easy to get bored. A few layers to the top and dimensional highlights can immediately refresh the cut. Spritz your hair with a little hairspray or apply mousse to define the layers.
@hairbyallybarone
If you want a longer cut with a nice texture and silhouette, try a medium-length style with front layers, like in the photo. Heavy layers and dark roots will help the look maintain its shape and lovely appearance as it’s growing out.
@nicolasbeautystudio
Spice up your vanilla bob with straight eyebrow-skimming bangs for a cute girly look. The chin-length cut creates a sweet frame to the face and the wispy fringe draws attention to facial features, such as eyes and cheekbones.
@kadirdonmezofficiial
Update your bob with a stunning shade like buttery blonde to make a statement with your hairstyle. A few hidden layers will help create that perfect curve at the ends. Complement this haircut with bottleneck bangs to emphasize the beauty of your face.
@hairbyelvisp
Blonde hair is so much fun because it shows off waves and curls better than any other hue. If you want a hairstyle that is heavenly both to wear and admire, try adding some sweet ringlets to your ‘do.
@nevilleromanzammit
Bob is a great cut option for those with fine hair because it keeps its own shape. If you’ve always kept your tresses long, take a trip to the other side and discover how beautiful you’ll feel with this stacked platinum bob.
@winzerhairsalon_palmsprings
A short and shaggy cut always has a sort of “girl next door” appeal, but this one also looks ultra-feminine and seriously flattering! To make the hairdo less casual, add blonde highlights to help you carry this style from the boardroom to the bar without missing a beat.
@salsalhair
Partial balayage is a nice way to get into the blonde team while ensuring the color sessions are not frequent. Pull off the style full of perfect, loose spirals by using a small barrel curling iron on shoulder-length hair.
@nikcabral
This is an easy yet effective hairdo that can suit a formal event but will look equally good at a dive bar. The best part is that by trimming your hair shorter, you can maintain bleached hair in its best condition.
@emerson_ferrazoficial
This gorgeous blunt bob is ideal for showing off great healthy hair. The style features thick hair and heavy bangs that start far back on the head. The white blonde color lightens the look and gives it a fantastic glow to stun everyone around!
@mo_safi_
Here is a style that manages to be sweet and sassy at the same time. The wavy texture seems to be perfect for a carefree vacation with your significant other or your favorite group of girls, while the pink blonde shade makes it more eye-catching. This style also uses strawberry blonde streaks in the front to emphasize complexion.
@jhair_stylist
A simple curl or wave is a quick and easy way to breathe life into flat hair, a common side effect of fine texture. The locks have been curled mid-shaft for a cute relaxed texture, enhanced by a soft peach blonde hue with subtle blonde highlights.
@hairbyjeena
Naturally textured hair is always alluring, and sometimes it’s best to just go with the flow when it comes to your everyday look. Instead of rocking a platinum dye, try a more low-key option with dimensional highlights that will grow out nicely.
@eastonhair
This simple yet stylish haircut looks gorgeous! The straight ends show off the defined shape of the cut, whereas the mid-shaft waves add volume and messy texture. This is a good option for thin-haired girls who are ready to cut their hair short.
@hairbyallybarone
Girls with natural black hair don’t have to bleach it completely for a lighter look. This caramel blonde bob features dark roots with a blonde body of hair. The darker shade of blonde matches deep skin tones perfectly. You can also use this style if you’re growing out your natural hair color.
@kellybeestyles
With this fluffy peachy lob, your hair will look absolutely stunning! Use this styling technique to add body to flat hair and make your mane look fuller. The shaggy curls make the lob much less defined and severe than the average straight-cut bob.
@savviestyles
Adding waves to the lob with ash balayage can make a huge difference to the overall effect of the hairstyle. The subtle kink here adds a new dimension to the hair. It’s also really easy to do at home – all you need is a curling tong or a straightener.
@ellevangestelhair
Soft and feminine, this hairstyle looks amazing with bleached blonde tresses. Remember that such dramatic brown to blonde lightening will take several sessions. The more gradual the transition, the more beautiful and healthy result you will get in the end.
@nicolasbeautystudio
Bob length is great for naturally wavy and curly hair, as it means the texture is not weighted down and stretched. Go with darker blonde shades to be more gentle with your hair type and remember to follow the right wavy hair routine to ensure your ringlets hold all day long.
@slickback_buttahtoast
This poker straight blonde lob is so neat that it looks almost futuristic. A simple cut and a sophisticated color make a refined look. Coordinate the cut and the color with your skin tone and face shape to find your best bet.
@dannayjerezano_stylist
Layered bob is one of the most popular hairstyles for curly hair – and that doesn’t surprise us! Looks pretty cool! With blonde highlights and a side parting, the hair seems very dimensional and gets a great shape.
@hairbylaquitaburnett
This cute bob is great for girls who want to add some volume to their hair. Start with a classic shaggy bob haircut, then add loose curls from your bangs to the back of your hair. Highlight your hair with yellow tones to give your locks extra dimension.
@pinkdagger
If you want a face-framing cut with personality, a lob with side bangs is the perfect way to go. The long feathered locks create a neat shape around the face, whereas the sweeping fringe makes the look more youthful. This style is universally flattering as it suits all face shapes.
@jeanclaudeelmoughayar
Curls are not the only way to achieve volume as demonstrated by this bouncy bob. Take advantage of an angled style that uses short layers to create volume in the back and sleek long layers in the front to frame the face without overpowering it.
@modernsalon
Inspired by the angled cuts of celebrities like Victoria Beckham, super straight bob with clearly defined angles is a great style when you’re looking to make a statement. From the runway to the office hallway, this is one ‘do that’s sure to grab attention.
@themaneparlourhairandbeauty
A stacked bob is so popular that sometimes it can become too expected in some circles. This style is perfect for women who are already sporting a short layered cut and are growing weary of it. Get your layers feathered in the back to provide texture, while keeping the sections in the front straight and angled. It’s a simple change that breathes new life into your look.
@modernsalon
A steep angle can make blonde bob haircuts both eye-catching and sophisticated. The extreme difference in length between the back and front is a great statement piece. Be warned, this style looks best on straight hair!
@rafaelbertolucci1
Here’s yet another style that shows bobs don’t have to be straight! This style is surprisingly easy to style too, just leave the bottom layer natural. If you have relatively straight hair, then add a handful of curls to the top layer, using a curling wand.
@hellobalayage
Smaller faces can sometimes get overwhelmed with too much hair in the face, which is why this style is so wonderful. The side bang offers a flirty touch, and the shorter length and shaggy layers keep the look light and fun.
@dejavumodafeminina
Thicker hair textures can still take advantage of a layered bob style — actually it is recommended. The layered cut keeps the fullness in the back without bringing the heaviness to the front around the face. The two-tone color with a light strawberry blonde on the bottom creates the right depth and keeps the look from seeming too overwhelming.
@carriewhitehairdresser
Ask your salon stylist to keep a generous section of hair longer than the rest of your bob, and then define it with a color of your choice to really show it off. Any hue will do, as blonde hair pairs well with practically any shade.
@headrushdesignsbyjulieann
Angled curly bob looks divine on ladies with very thick locks. This style features dimensional curls of the perfect length and a cool silhouette of a steeply angled cut, slightly softened thanks to hair texture.
@constancerobbins
A classic bob is made more beautiful with longer sides. Modernizing the traditional bob haircut is perfect for those who want a different look but are feeling a little gun shy. This cut doesn’t involve a huge risk, but it is also capable of doing cool things like bringing volume to thin, lifeless locks.
@rafaelbertolucci1
Trends may come and go, but it is clear that blonde bob is one classic look that will never go out of style. Pick the cut that flatters your face shape and think of your own most beautiful blonde shade to achieve a truly individual style.
