We’ve called it- bobs are going to be everywhere this season. Not just the regular bob but newer cuts and styles are emerging thanks to the need for more variety and we might have just stumbled upon our favourite one for the summer. Enter the shaggy bob– a short haircut with loads of layers. This hairstyle just got put on the map thanks to the likes of Selena Gomez as she took the plunge and chose this to be her new summer look for 2022, fringe and all. This haircut is also a welcome change for those of us who love bedhead styles that don’t require much styling. Want to know the deets? Read on…
What Is The Shaggy Bob?
The classic bob meets the trending rebel shag haircut to form the shaggy bob. It combines the length of a bob and the choppy and wispy layer variation of the shag cut to create this fun and flirty hairstyle that is so summer-friendly. The fringe in this haircut is also customised to your face shape and hair texture and it leaves you room to experiment. In terms of styling, you just need one product and can skip heat styling altogether. As the cut is short, your hair will be off your shoulders and it is easy to wash and maintain too. The airy layers will help you stay cool for the summer months.
Variations Of The Shaggy Bob Hairstyle
Jaw Drop
This shaggy bob ends at the jaw and has a more elongating effect on your neckline. It has straight and choppy ends with a wispy full-bodied curtain fringe.
Side Swept
Here you can see how this style is versatile when it comes to partings as well. The laidback texture of this cut allows you to rock that messy look and therefore it doesn’t matter how you choose to part your hair, it will always look fab.
Rocker Chic
This one leads more towards the mixie cut (mullet meets pixie) but it has the length of a bob and the layers of a shag cut. This is cool to try if you want an even edgier appeal.
Full Frontal
With a fuller fringe style and softer layers, this shaggy haircut is perfect for straight to wavy hair types.
Shaggy Lob
A longer variation of the shaggy bob is cool too if you don’t want to go super short. It is easier to style and is long enough to be tied up as well.
