Bob Hairstyles for Black Women
Bob hairstyles are classic hairstyles, which suit girls and women both. This style is easy to maintain and is not a very short hairstyle, so one can style their bob hairstyle into many ways without having to carry the same old style. Also, one can greatly accessorize with the bob hairstyle. There are many unique styles of bobs for African-American women; make sure you choose a bob hairstyle, which suits your face shape.
Bobs for Curly Hair
Blunt Bob: This is the classic bob hairstyle, which suits women of all ages. This hairstyle also gives a professional look. So, if you are thinking of a bob hairstyle for your workplace, then consider this style. For a blunt bob the hair is cut in an equal length. The hair can be styled with a center or a middle parting. Both curly natural hair styles and straight hair styles look good with a blunt bob.
Style Tip: Blunt side bangs or side sweeping bangs look great with a blunt bob.
Layered Bob: Layered bob hairstyles help to maintain curly hair better. You can use layering to reduce the volume of the curly mane, and thus it will make your hair more manageable. There are many ways to layer cut your hair. Ask your stylist for layering tips. Layering should be done in such a way that it suits your face shape. For example, if you have a round face shape, then layers are added near the crown, so that there is volume near the crown. This makes the round face look longer.
Style Tip: Use some hair clips to style your layered bob in various ways. You can use hair clips to create bump hairstyles as well. Or use clips to hold one side of the hair.
Choppy Bob: Choppy hairstyles are created using a particular type of layering. This is a good idea if you have thin hair, or need a trendy shag hairstyle. First the stylist will give you a base haircut. Then on this base haircut, the hair will be cut into layers for a choppy effect. To cut the hair choppy, a strand of the hair is held at a 45 degree angle, the scissor is tilted and a cut is made. This way all the hair strands are cut into various lengths to get the choppy effect.
Style Tip: With a choppy bob, choppy bangs look equally great!
Inverted Bob: Inverted bob haircut is the most popular bob hairstyle today. This style is opposite to the common bob. In a common 'U' bob, most women keep the back hair longer and cut the hair on the sides shorter. This gives a U shape trim to the hair. Inverted bob was made very popular by Victoria Beckham. But, check out the pictures of Rihanna's bob hairstyle. She wears a beautiful black bob hairstyle. To get an inverted bob, the hair on the back is cut real short near the nape of the neck. Then the hair on the sides are kept longer.
Style Tip: Inverted bob with side parting and sweeping side bangs looks very stylish.
Romantic Bob: Romantic bobs are really great hairstyles, as these hairstyles allow women to carry their hair naturally. Romantic bob hairstyles are inspired by the 1920s look. To get this style, simply cut your curly hair into an inverted bob. There is no need of any sort of bangs with these hairstyles, but if you want you can keep few small curly locks as bangs.
Style Tip: To make this style look even greater, accompany it with some cool accessories. Braided headbands, some colorful clips, some flower hair pins, etc., can be used to accessorize.
Asymmetrical Bob: Asymmetrical bobs look very edgy and stylish. This is also a very trendy style. This style is actually a variation of the inverted bob hairstyle. In this style, the hair is cut into an inverted bob. The hair near the nape of the neck is cut short, while the side hair is kept longer. However, the side hair is cut asymmetrical. This means one side is short and the other long. Now, keeping the sides very asymmetrical or little asymmetrical depends upon the look you want to achieve.
Style Tip: For this style keep your hair side parted, to make the asymmetry stand out even more.
Angel Bob: Angel bobs are great hairstyles if you have a long or a heart shaped face. This hairstyle really helps to make your facial features stand out. To get your hair cut into an angel bob, follow an inverted bob hairstyle. However, symmetry needs to be maintained. So, cut the hair on sides into equal length and long tapering style. Keep your hair parted in the middle. You can keep your hair curly or straight. Consider getting a razor cut on the angel bob, to get the soft wispy ends effect.
Style Tip: With an angel bob cut sweeping blunt Cleopatra bangs. This gives a beautiful angel look.
So, pick a style which you like the most. If you are not sure which style will suit you, then take pictures of these bob hairstyle, and photo-edit and paste your face to check if the hairstyle is right for you. Good luck!
