Refresh your everyday style with a trendy graduated crop!
The long stacked bob is a modern variation of the classic mid-length cut, known for its angled silhouette. To achieve it, the nape section is cut shorter than the front for a visible contrast between the lengths. Here are 29 inspo pics to explore the variety of shapes and styles for your hair type.
This well-structured style with point-cut ends offers a flattering shape to visually elongate the chin and slim down the face. The long, wispy fringe swept to one side creates a more dramatic effect.
@gustavomigli
If you’re currently growing out your lengths and want to keep your locks healthy, this style is a perfect fit. Short in the back and slightly longer in the front – an ideal textured look!
@summerevansstudio
This classic long bob hairstyle works great with natural hair color. It emphasizes the smooth texture of your locks and lets them shine effortlessly.
@salononthegreenyeovil
For a dramatic transformation, opt for an inverted cut to enhance your thick tresses. Instead of the traditional stacked crop, triangular layering is used to remove some weight and soften the back.
@marisayvettehair
This style is all about the details. The feathered layers are swept nicely to the back to draw attention to the tapered nape section.
@alberto_doeshair
The look features shorter strands in the back of the head and longer front tendrils to add some movement to the style. A soft wave accentuates the transition between the lengths.
@hairbymaddieeeb
The long angled bob introduces clean lines and adds lots of movement to the front. Wear your hair straight to show off the sleek texture and enjoy the crisp finish.
@burcinmuratkuafor
A stacked haircut is a great alternative for a layered crop since you maintain the graduation in the back. Tuck the longer strands behind the ear, and you’re ready for the day.
@ro.hsiqueira
The major benefit of this look is its de-bulking effect achieved with texturizing sheers. To maintain the shape, be ready to remove the weight as the hair grows out.
@summerevansstudio
For naturally straight tresses, an elongated hairstyle is one way to create a clean and neat appearance. The cut works equally well for thick and thin locks.
@gbhdesign
A wavy hairdo can actually accentuate your stacked back by lifting the shorter strands and making them look more voluminous. Give your mane a little shake for a messy feel.
@headrushdesigns
Spice up your A-line bob with a side part to cover one-half of your face. This will create a tousled look and direct attention to the eyes.
@gustavomigli
Combine a soft layering at the tips of your hair and an angled shape to keep your style dynamic and relaxed. A blow dryer and a round brush are usually enough to maintain the shape.
@dmarkos_salon
These creme brûlée locks are begging for a textured haircut to make the color really stand out. The stacked nape adds to the high-contrast look.
@alohahaircolorstudio
The layered ends imitate the graduated bob shape while softening the outline of the crop. The golden blonde balayage makes the crop truly eye-catching.
@sunflowersalonaz
This elongated style with a rounded nape is thinned out towards the ends for a lighter feel. The natural red locks make the crop remarkable.
@thecuttingedge.salon
To achieve a lived-in dimension, add some lowlights and highlights to your blonde locks while shaping them throughout the length. An inverted form with textured waves will also do the job.
@cristagibsonhair
You’ll love everything about this haircut simply because it doesn’t require much upkeep. It’s an ideal style to grow out your bob and try a longer crop.
@alohahaircolorstudio
Embrace a softer style this time by asking for shorter layers in the back. After removing the weight from the ends, you’ll get a statement cut.
@artistry.by_alyssa
Give your bright money pieces a gentle swoop to the side to emphasize the elongated front section. Use a texturizing spray to maintain the curvy shape of the locks.
@chancellarwelch
A straight razor can do wonders for your locks, especially when you use it to carve the tips. This will ensure easy styling and manageable tresses.
@summerevansstudio
The length of your bob cut can vary. But if you want to keep it longer, this defined look is for you. The long front strands and a slightly shorter back create a great combo.
@josuel.juliaohair
If you’re not afraid of a bold and daring makeover, this sharp angled haircut is your must-try. The neck is exposed because of the stacked nape, while the front sections are long enough to reach the collarbone.
@simplybea.yourself
A silky-smooth bob is a real find in the world of short hairstyles. This look features a round-shaped graduation with blunt ends to counterbalance the glam.
@hairco828
A clean inverted bob like this one is made for light hair shades! It offers an icy undertone that works well with the sharp precision of the crop.
@jeannette.lamas
Adding a full fringe to your medium haircut is a wise move, especially if you want to get a face-framing look or reduce the width of your forehead. Make sure to style your bangs properly for a killing glam.
@sheenasshags
This textured look brings out the rich hair color and dimension thanks to the wavy texture and angled crop. The side parting creates a subtle asymmetry for a touch of nonchalance.
@gustavomigli
Choppy haircuts introduce a messy touch to any style. For this look, the weight is concentrated at the ends with extra movement and texture to work with.
@colorpalette_hair_collective
Keep things classy and clean with an inverted crop that features angled lines and creates a flattering shape. Maintain the sleek look with a straightener and hairspray.
@shearluxurynola
Don’t limit yourself to one-length haircuts when you can throw your locks off the balance and try some angled forms. They will accentuate your jawline and frame the face along the sides to complement your best features.
