The Lob Is The Perfect Gateway Cut For Trying Out Short Hair

By CHRISTIANA MAIMONE
A lob (long bob) is a medium-length haircut that rests on your shoulders or collarbones. It is the perfect middle ground between long and short hair.
The lob is versatile and really can be for anyone. You can rock one with bouncy curls, pin-straight hair, bangs or no bangs, layered, or all one length.
This style can also cater to any face shape, accentuating your natural features and framing your face. The length allows this style to be relatively low-maintenance, as well.
A lob can even make thin hair look thicker and add more volume to already thick hair. If you're worried about a lob looking poofy, have your stylist thin it out toward the bottom.
