Kirkify AIBob cut hairstyles: which length would you wear?
A bob is a haircut with a distinct outline around the jaw or shoulders. Start with the length you like, then compare bangs and layers. The illustrations below show the same face so you can see what changes.
Four bob haircut styles to compare
Chin-length blunt bob
A level edge draws a clear line at the jaw. Compare this fuller outline if your ends look wispy.

French bob with bangs
A shorter cheek-to-jaw outline exposes the neck. Short fringe changes how much forehead shows.

Layered bob
Soft layers break up the solid edge and let waves separate. Compare where the widest part sits around your cheeks.

Shoulder-length long bob (lob)
The ends meet the shoulders, leaving more length around the face. A useful comparison if chin length feels like a big change.

For a round face, compare a chin-length bob with a lob that falls below your jaw. Look at where the ends draw your eye. If you like framing at cheek level, try the shorter cut first.
For fine or thin hair, compare a blunt edge with light layers. A straight perimeter can make the ends look fuller. If your hair is wavy or curly, discuss the length when dry and how much it springs up with your stylist.

How to style a bob cut at home
For a smooth blunt bob, direct the airflow from roots to ends and turn the tips under slightly with a brush. For a wavy layered bob, scrunch damp ends and let them dry before separating the waves. If your fringe has a cowlick, try your usual part in the preview.
