Classic Bob
Short • Low Maintenance
The Classic Bob is shorter, ending at the jaw, with blunt ends.
Lob
A lob, or long bob, is a bob grown out to between the jaw and the collarbone, usually a little longer at the front, with softly textured ends and long layers only. It is also called a collarbone lob or shoulder-length bob. It takes five to ten minutes to blow-dry.
- Medium
- Straight, Wavy
- Low
The lob sits just above the shoulders so it does not flip out, with long internal layers that keep it from looking heavy. A centre or soft side part both work. It keeps its line for eight to ten weeks.
Who suits a Lob?
- Straight or wavy hair, fine to thick
- People growing out a bob, or cutting down from long hair
- Round faces. Length below the chin makes a round face look longer.
- Diamond faces. Fullness at chin level adds width around the jaw, balancing wide cheekbones.
- Long faces. Width at the sides at jaw to collarbone length makes a long face look shorter.
