The lob has long been a favorite haircut because it flatters every face shape. These looks are slight extensions of the lob, and even better. From shoulder-length cuts with bangs to blunt shoulder-length bobs, meeting in the middle is anything but boring. Whether you're growing out a short cut or want to clean up a long one, a shoulder-length style is the most flattering compromise between short and long. Shoulder-length bobs are long enough to style with ease but short enough to look clean and not weigh you down. Straight, wavy, and curly hair textures will work with this cut, so there's nothing holding you back from trying out this easy style.

Carefree Curls
