Shorter than the classic bob by an inch or two, this stops above the jaw so the perimeter is clear of the neck. The bangs are cut wide and full but softened at the tips, so they rest on the brow without the hard bar a blunt cut leaves. It is meant to look slept in, which makes it forgiving: air dry, push it around with your fingers, and stop there.
- Suitsoval, heart, oblong face shapes. Full bangs mask the wide brow of a heart outline, and the perimeter draws a horizontal at cheek level that stops a long face running on.
- Hair typefine, medium density, straight, wavy. Fine to medium hair suits it because the short length gives natural lift, while heavy thick hair pushes the shape outward into a triangle.
- UpkeepSix to eight weeks for the bob and monthly for the bangs, with little daily work beyond pressing the bangs flat while they dry.
- Ask forAsk for a French bob finishing an inch above the chin with wide, soft bangs point cut at the ends rather than cut straight across.
