There are some hairstyles that will always elicit compliments. The bob hairstyle is one of those styles and the most memorable bobs are chin length and they are without bangs. These are swingy, easy to wear and very sophisticated.

This bob is short. In the back it is cut at the neckline and stacked up gracefully creating soft fullness. Stacking means that each layer is trimmed ever so slightly shorter than the previous layer so that it stacks out. The sides of this style angle down from the center back to a length just below the chin. This leaves enough length to tuck behind an ear or curve under the chin. Shampoo and condition with body building products unless your hair is coarse or frizzy. In that case use smoothing products. Apply a flexible hold styling foam or gel from the root to the ends. Bow dry this style with a large round brush. You may want to use a large curling iron – 1 ½ inch – to cup the sides under. If your hair tends to frizz, remove it with a hot flat iron. This also give a sleek finish. Part it over the center of on eye and sweep it across with the forehead.

This bob is chin length and the perimeter is cut evenly all around making it longer in back than the previous style. It is cut with long layers allowing the style to be full at the top and narrow toward the bottom. Shampoo and condition as in the first style. Apply a flexible hold styling foam and blow the style dry with a large round brush. Part this style in a low side part – located toward the outside corner of the eye. The front is combed forward and over to one side. As you can see, the bangs obscure one eye, making it hard to see but looking very stylish.

Tired of fighting curly hair? This wavy bob is cut at the neckline in the back and evenly around to the front. The sides are cut just above the chin. Apply a flexible hold styling foam or gel from the roots to the ends. Allow the hair to dry naturally while scrunching it to give it a little lift on top. This style can be parted in the center but is usually more attractive when parted slightly off center – just to one side of the center.
