Choppy Texture-Boosting Layers
Choppy layers are an ideal way to add movement, definition, and volume to a blunt bob for those with thicker locks. Furthermore, choppy layers help lighten and style wavy or curly textures as they remove bulk from strands, simplifying styling.

Tousled Layers
Long layers add a soft and feminine finish to any haircut, perfect for thick hair to reduce bulk and achieve an effortless yet manageable style. If you have long, straight hair, ask your stylist to add face-framing layers that start above the jawline and can be styled in loose waves or curls that alternate directions to give a tousled appearance.

Create eye-catching looks with your straight, long bob by playing around with its angles to achieve bold looks that stand out. This long angled lob is styled in a dark brown shade with blonde balayage highlights for a natural finish. This layered bob features middle-parted curtain bangs to frame the face for a feminine, cute style. The jagged edges add extra character and personality.
Soft Waves
Long bobs look incredibly stylish and sophisticated when styled with beachy waves. To achieve this stunning style, finger comb strands to loosen them and use dry shampoo or texturizing spray if necessary. This luxurious look features a tan brown bob, beachy waves, and center parting styled with partial balayage highlights for natural-looking color and volume. This style works best for those with solid jawlines or faces.
Asymmetrical Layers
Long asymmetrical bobs can create a truly captivating style.
