Bobs are so popular right now. They’re really feminine and also very easy to take care of. This is even more the case if you decide to go with a chin-length bob and bangs. It’s literally the kind of hairstyle where you can get up and go!

2. Blunt bob with peaks of color

This is a blunt bob that’s been cut with a razor. A part of what makes it “blunt” is the ways the bangs have been styled. What makes it super unique are the small peaks of red hair color at the bottom. (You can also clip on small pieces of weave if you’d prefer.)

3. Long bangs pixie

This is a standard pixie cut. But it’s certainly an unforgettable one thanks to the streaks of blue that are going all throughout it (you can also use weave clips to achieve this look as well).

6. Feathered pixie

If you look really close, doesn’t it seem like there are feathers in her pixie cut? It’s a type of cutting technique that a professional stylist can do for you in order for you to achieve similar results.

Being that the 70s are back when it comes to fashion, so are shag cuts. Only clearly they have a bit of a modernized look to them as you can see with this super cute short shag.

Speaking of throwback hairstyles, doesn’t this retro bob make you think of the 60s? It was sexy then. And it’s still sexy now.

10. Long pixie

Here’s a rather long pixie cut. If you happen to already have short hair and you’re looking for a way to make a smooth transition into longer hair, this is one of the ways to do just that.

Here’s a pixie for someone who wants their hairstyle to have a bit of an edge to it. You can either shave one or both sides in order to make your haircut stand out even more.

12. Long razor cut

If you have naturally thin hair, this look is probably not going to give you the results that you’re after. On the other hand, if your hair is pretty thick, this long razor cut is…everything.

13. Pixie with brown highlights

Don’t feel like spending a ton of time on your hair? We totally understand. A super short pixie can keep you looking like a fashion model while also keeping up with your hectic schedule.

16. Brown and red bob

There’s nothing like a professional hair coloring. Take this bob, for example. It’s hard to tell if her hair is brown with red chunks of color or red with brown chunks of color. Either way, it’s pretty electrifying.

17. Asymmetrical pixie

If you’ve thought about getting a bob but the first thing that comes to your mind is “BOR-ING”, how about a spiked cropped one like this one. The many layers are what we like so much about it. What about you?

Yep. It’s pretty radical but if you want to look “hot like fire”, this Mohawk (and the way it is colored) would certainly be the way to do it.

24. Modified bowl cut

Until this picture, you may have thought that a bowl cut was one of the worst ways to wear your hair. But when it’s a bowl merged with a shag, you’ll be sure to have one of the most unique cuts and looks, no matter what crowd you’re in.
