25 Inverted Bob Haircuts For Fashionistas
If you’re looking for a short or medium haircut with lots of style and sass, an inverted bob is the perfect choice. With longer hair in the front and lots of volume at the roots, this ultra versatile haircut works for professional women who want a sleek style, or younger women who want fun, bouncy hair that still allows them to play with styling and color. Because inverted bobs can be heavily layered or lightly textured, they work for any hair type, and adding bangs is an easy way to punch up the style to suit a particular face shape. If you’re thinking of making a fashionable update with your hair, take a look at our favorite 25 inverted bob haircuts.
1Inverted Lob With Soft Curls
2Sleek Blonde Bob
3Shaggy Inverted Bob
Cut with three distinct layers and a heavy, side swept fringe, this shaggy bob is a fun and funky alternative to sleek, more professional looking cuts. Because this style creates fullness a the sides of the face, it’s especially flatting on women with long face shapes, while those with full cheeks might want to try a look with less layering.
4Balayage Bob
Concentrating highlights at the front of the face, this golden buttery balayage is the hottest color trend, and looks just as good on bob length cuts as women with super long locks. This type of highlighting involving multiple layered colors is difficult to recreate at home, and is best left to a trusted professional stylist.
5Raspberry Inverted Bob
6Blonde Waves Bob
With lazy waves that look soft and natural, this blonde style is the perfect marriage of chic cut and a laid back, summery color. Concentrating the lightest, platinum shade near the face helps to bring attention forward, and creates a bright, dimensional style that will create serious hair envy in everyone you meet.
7Soft Balayage Bob
8Textured Bob
9Layered Inverted Bob
The layers in this haircut help to add volume to the style, while the ashy blonde color is one of the most sophisticated ways to wear a lighter shade, and adds dimension to help hair appear thicker. If you have super fine hair, these layers could make your hair look flat, but they work wonders to thin out a full head of hair that tends to look bulky in a blunt style.
10Chocolate Lob
11Dimensional Red And Blonde
12Inverted Bob With Bangs
13Steep Angle Bob
14Braided Bob
While ultra long braids are very popular at the moment, a braided bob like this one makes hair more manageable, takes less time to install, and doesn’t weigh on natural hair as heavily. Try this style out if you’re looking for a box braided style that’s shorter and more laid back, especially if waist-length hair is too much hassle for your day-to-day life.
15Short Choppy Bob With Bangs
The layers and texture in this bob give it a choppy appearance that balances nicely with the dark shade and straight styling. We love this style for thick haired women who are looking for a bob haircut that doesn’t feel chunky, and the raven shade mixed with an edgier short cut makes the style look like it was ripped from the pages of a comic book.
16Chin Length Bob
17Inverted Bob With Baby Bangs
Pairing these bangs with an inverted bob makes for a deliberate style that never looks lazy. These super short baby bangs are a bold choice that come with amazing results, putting focus on your eyes and taking years off of your appearance. If you’re thinking about taking the plunge, consider that they’ll require daily styling unless you have pin-straight hair.
18Green Ombre Bob
With all sorts of rainbow hues being worn right now, this green ombre bob looks chic and not overly edgy. The combination of black hair with a turquoise green ombre is especially eye-catching, but requires chemical lightening beforehand, and is best left in the hands of a trusted professional stylist.
19Purple Streak Bob
If you want to add a pop of color to your bob without going for ombre or all over highlighting, try adding a streak of color to the longer pieces that frame your face. Because this is a subtle look, it might be one you want to attempt at home, especially if you’ve got lighter hair that won’t require bleaching beforehand.
20Soft Red Bob
The soft bang in this bob helps balance out the sleek aspects of the chin length look. We especially love this muted red shade, which makes a nice alternative to intense red colors that can look harsh against some skin tones. As with any red, this color tends to fade fast, but shampooing less frequently with sulphate free products can help preserve your shade.
