If you’re looking to add more texture or thickness to your thin hair, then you’ll definitely want to consider one of these popular long layered bob haircuts! The long bob (also called a Lob), is when the hair length is below the chin and above the collarbone and is cut like a bob. Layers are still hot this season, so if you have long hair and you’re considering a chop, a Lob just might be the cut you’re looking for! Add in some nice layering to add more movement and volume. Check out these long layered bob hairstyles below for your next layered inspiration!
#1: Smoking-Hot Angled Bob
This is a timeless cut when it comes to layered lob haircuts! Even if you have curly hair it will still look fabulous! If it’s cut the right way the long layers in the front fall right into place! It’s such a classic cut!
The best thing about this is that you can be super creative with the length and texture and make it look like a different look without having to really work at it! It’s such a versatile haircut! If you want to tuck it, you can. If you want to make it more tousled, go for it! If you want to have more of a sleek look, you got it! If you still want to feel like you still have long hair but you want to feel edgy and different, this long layered bob is a perfect look for you!
#2: Layered Lob for Coarse Hair
If you have coarse or thick hair and want layers to lighten it up, ask your stylist to do an undercut. This way, you can remove the interior weight before layering. As you age, so can your hair texture, so give this style a try, and you might fall back in love with your new texture.
#3: Center-Parted Layered Lob
For one of the best warm balayage ideas, ask for a bronze blonde tone. If you’re wanting to soften your features, ask for high and thicker money pieces. If you want your client’s highlighted areas to pop, add a lowlight to give contrast. It will give a bronzy glow. Consider a warm lowlight and a cool lowlight to add dimension.
#4: Wispy Choppy Lob with Layers
A wispy choppy lob with layers is the best way to wear a layered bob. However, like with any shorter cut, there will be regular maintenance involved. This will help to keep your lengths looking fresh.
#5: Blonde Layered Lob for Straight Hair
The blonde layered lob is a great hairstyle for naturally straight hair. If your hair is quite flat, you may want a lot of layers throughout. However, do take your hairdresser’s professional opinion to get the right amount. Too much layering can make the ends look thin and wispy, while not enough layers can leave your hairstyle choppy.
#6: Layered Bob with Flowing Fringe
If you want to add volume and shape to your thick flat hair, it’s best for you to get inverted layers. The stack of your layers will push your hair up. This will open your hair, giving it a fuller appearance. The removal of the weight on the layers will give more volume to your crown area. Try to practice a good blowout to add more movement and smoothing to your hair.
#7: Cute Lob with Choppy Layers
You’ll want to try a cute lob with choppy layers. Consider adding layers to your one-length lob and you’ll transform your style. Choppy layers soften blunt lines and give your hair more dimension. Using a 3/4 or 1-inch wand or iron will be helpful when adding waves to your style. Let your curls cool, then comb through for a messy shape.
#8: Fun Side-Parted Tousled Lob
You’ll feel fantastic in a side-parted tousled lob. In my opinion, the number one style is a tousled lob. The medium length is long enough to pull up, but the style is more interesting than long hair. If you want to wear your hair tousled and you don’t have a natural wave, try curling with a 1-inch iron, leaving the ends out. You’ll look sexy with the long bang draping backward off your face.
#9: Dark Blonde Lob with Wispy Ends
A dark blonde lob with wispy ends will be the ideal hairstyle for you if your hair is fine to medium. Ask your colorist what is the best shampoo to use to achieve maximum longevity of the color. And one of the easiest ways to get those ends flicking in or out is to use a big round brush and dryer with a nozzle.
#10: Lived-In Lob with Layers and Balayage
Consider a lived-in lob with layers and balayage if you want natural-looking hair. Don’t be afraid to have your stylist add lots of texture and layers. It will only help with styling and will create that texture and volume that women love!
#11: Blonde Lob with Hidden Layers
If you’re looking for a new style, go for a blonde lob with hidden layers. If you don’t like the look of layers but still want body and movement, hidden layers are just what you need. A bob is one of the best low-maintenance haircuts and can be personalized to your specific hair needs.
#12: Adorable Bob with Bangs
The haircut is a softly angled long and layered bob with bangs. This layered lob cut is perfect for women with both medium and fine hair because it makes the hair look fuller, and it is suitable for both straight or wavy hair. Women with curly hair can also achieve this look if they are able to put a little more time into styling.
#13: Effortless Lob with Internal Layers
The effortless lob with internal layers should be your haircut of choice if you have thick, straight hair and you want volume.
