The inverted bob is a new take on the classic bob haircut for women, featuring a shorter back and longer front. It is easier to style and can be straight or slightly textured. Bangs are optional and the longer front can be pulled back.

The inverted bob is a hairstyle for women which is a relatively new take on the bob. Bob haircuts are usually short, about chin-length or a little longer, tapering inward, providing a curl of the hair ends towards the face and neck. Sometimes this curl is a little difficult to achieve if you have stubborn hair and requires a few extra minutes of styling, good blow-drying techniques and/or a curling iron to get the curl inward.

The way the inverted bob is cut makes styling so much easier. At the back of the head, the hair is cut very close to the nape. The hair can be stacked with several layers on top which creates a rounded look at the back of the head. The sides of the hair can angle downward, continuing with the taper inward. The result is the inverted bob, where the hair looks much shorter in the back and gradually longer in the front, roughly chin length or a little longer.

Because of the way the hair is cut, the inward curl can be easier to achieve, but the hair can also be straight and can be slightly textured to give more fullness or a more “messy” look. There is a dispute as to whether bangs are really part of the inverted bob. In most examples, the bangs are worn very long or the hair in front is all one length. Fear not though, if you’re better off with bangs, you can definitely get a stylist to artfully blend the bangs or even some layering and texturing of the top of your hair so you have more fullness or a slightly different look, but still get the cut. inverted bob style.

The longer ends of the hair in front of the inverted bob are usually long enough to be pulled back away from the face. Parts can be in the middle, although side parts seem more common. The style is definitely a short cut and it might be difficult to get any kind of update without adding more hair. It is, however, a trendy style that many are turning to, as the latest in trendy hair.
