Prev1 of 70Next


Thick natural tresses are whimsical when it comes to styling, therefore, haircuts for thick hair may sometimes look unflattering. A haircut is a key component of our image, so it needs to be selected thoughtfully. Black bob hairstyles, performed on thick hair, look fantastic and suit all face shapes. You only need to opt for the right length and finish. Adorable looks in this collection are both of famous personalities – celebrities, and beauty bloggers. Lets learn from them and draw inspiration.





Bob Variations


A classic bob suggests a single-length cut. Such a method adds “weight” and volume to hair, revealing its natural beauty and shine at fullest. Pay attention that bob haircuts make all imperfections and defects of hair structure, especially split hair ends, very noticeable.


Today there are plenty of techniques and various styles of bob haircuts. Short and medium-length bobs with bangs look luxurious on perfectly smooth and shiny hair. Depending on your style and type of face the contours of a bob haircut may be either graphically accurate or softened with light trimming at the ends. The most popular variations in 2015 also include elongated asymmetrical front tresses, edgy bottom contours and a feathered finish.



Styling


Certainly, sleek straight bobs are pretty impressive, however, chaotic waves and curls is another styling story that allows you to look different and never get bored with your bob. One interesting variation of bob styling we’d like to draw your attention to is when you flatiron your hair at the roots and weave it into showy curls at the ends.

#1: Color Pop with Long Bob



One of the advantages black women have over other ethnicities is their ability to wear bold, bright colors with ease.

#2: Long Bob Hairstyles for Black Women


A longer bob is flattering for all face shapes and is a great choice for those who are nervous about going too short. Add in some ombre hair color to lighten up the look of poker straight hair, or wear your bob curly when you’re ready to mix things up a bit.
