#19: Feathered Tresses
This look is a silk press, honey blonde color, trim with soft curls, and a wispy feathered bang. The loveliest thing about this look is the bang. I love how the bang adds a little edge and class. Bob haircuts for black women can feature a color combination like this one for a flattering finish. To preserve the curls, pin curl the curls in place with a bobby pin and then place either a silk bonnet or scarf over them.
#20: A-Line Lob
This is an A-line bob haircut, where it is a bit longer in the front than the back. Short black haircuts like this can frame and flatter the face without being heavy on the layers or length. The bob is a trendy look from last year. There are so many different types of bobs, from shaggy, textured, angled bobs, etc. Short black hairstyles like this are easy to maintain and can be worn for formal occasions or just hanging with friends. I suggest a jawline length for this look to create more volume on the sides (longer-shaped faces). If you want to create a look for a round or more angular shaped face, then I suggest a longer cut. As I said, anyone could wear this haircut. Ask your hairstylist what they think goes best with your face shape.
#21: Angled Bob
This is an elongated angled bob. One side (pictured) is longer for a dramatic effect. This is a custom unit I handmade and colored jet black per the client’s request. This style is sleek and has lots of movement. The gorgeous things about angled short haircuts for black women are the precise cutting and movement in the bob. This hairstyle is low maintenance and perfect for anyone looking for something classy yet captivating.
#22: Blunt Bob
I love this blunt bob because it gives off a sleek, grown black woman style! I wanted to ensure she had a great color that would fit her skin tone and a style that would complement her face! What I like most about this look has to be the versatility you can do with the style. You can go from a sleek straight look to messy curls on the same day!
