Updated: Short Hair inspiration: The Latest Chic Bobs & Lobs

We’ve been looking through the latest bob hairstyles all morning and we still can’t decide which are our favorites! Well, one thing’s for sure no-one’s going to get bored with their hair when there are so many exciting new twists on offer in the best bob hairstyles for this year!

One new type of bob that I believe will come out on top is the curly bob. It’s a medium-short bob neatly graduated into the nape in a horizontal line, with layers and light curls around the head. Apart from the fact that it’s a bob that suits all faces and ages, it’s also highly recommended for women with fine or thin hair.

So remember – the best bob hairstylesfor giving extra volume are the curly bobs with ruffled waves or tousled curls!

Stacked bob hairstyles

Another of the best bob hairstyles- that’s perfect for adding oomph to fine hair – is the lovely stacked bob, angled down to longer lengths below the chin and topped-off with a gorgeous balayage-ombré highlight scheme!

On straight, fine hair you’ll get a smooth line framing the sides of the face. Ask for the sides to be point-cut along the bottom to create a soft outline that enhances the defined shape of this fabulous retro-1960’s style!

Straight bob with blunt-cut fringe

This has always been one of my favourite hairstyles, but unfortunately it doesn’t suit my face shape! (Sad face!) It’s a symmetrical choppy layered bob cut to just above the jaw line and topped off with a straight across fringe that really brings out the colour of the eyes!

With the fringe cut to show off a nicely-shaped eye-brow and gorgeous face framing textures, I love this ultra-modern look!

Wavy bob with ombré

For a long bob that will also be one of the best bob hairstyles , try a casual face-contouring bob. Layers in the slightly waved sides and back are beautifully defined by some cleverly applied balayage/ombré.

Chic ultra-modern blonde bob hairstyles

Fancy something more edgy on straight hair? Try sliced layers throughout to create a sleek, blonde bob parted on one side and look effortlessly cool and contemporary every day!

Naturally curly bob hairstyles

Tame your mane with specially designed layers that enhance the elasticity of your natural wave and create just the right amount of volume and shape for a fabulous ‘wash and go’ bob.

On coarse, thick naturally curly hair you can get lots of incredibly easy-style looks that create yet more of the best bob hairstylesthat look fabulous short or long!

The long bob hairstyles

The bob cut is not only for short hair, but also great for longer hair. The lobs (long bob hairstyles) are really hot these days, and still popular in this year. The lobs are versatile, easy to style, and super-chic, whether it’s worn straight, in curls, or in loose, beachy waves. If you’re looking for a good reason to make the cut , check this gallery here.
