Everyone wants a choppy bob. It’s no accident that this haircut has been hugely popular for the past few years: it’s nearly universally flattering.
If your hair is thin or fine, it adds texture and volume. If your hair is thick, the subtle layers are used to remove weight and create lift and movement.
Look through the different varieties of choppy bobs to find the one perfect for you.
1. Medium Choppy Haircut
This bob embodies the coveted model-off-duty vibe, effortless and cool. The choppy layers have been styled to create dimension and volume, and the copper color is warm and appealing.
2. Long Choppy Bob
A textured bob can make your hair look much thicker than it is without making it obvious. Here, layers on top have been cleverly cut and styled to lift the hair at the crown, while the blunt ends create an illusion of everything being the same length.
3. Wavy Choppy Bob
For the past few years, blunt choppy lob has been everywhere. Its popularity isn’t going down, and the haircut in this picture makes it clear why: it’s easy to style, flattering and looks good—or to sum up, because it’s the perfect hairstyle!
4. Textured Bob Haircut
You don’t need long hair for the blonde bombshell look: the deep side part and the peek-a-boo bangs swooping across one eye give this sensual short blonde bob a femme fatale vibe.
5. Choppy Bob With Bangs
Usually, straight-across bangs are worn with a sleek look and wispy ends are paired with tapered bangs. But here, the combination of choppy layers and cropped bangs results in a unique and interesting look.
6. Long Choppy Bob With Curtain Bangs
A choppy bob isn’t limited to beachy waves, even though that’s the most popular way to style it. There are lots of ways to wear one, including this retro 1970s-inspired style.
7. Curly Choppy Bob
Layers aren’t as noticeable in curly hair as in straight hair, but they still create shape and texture. Short curly hair with bangs and choppy layers looks fuller, and the curls are lighter, bouncier and more manageable.
8. Messy Short Choppy Hairstyle
Everything about this hairstyle looks laid-back even though it’s all intentional: the shadow roots, the easy length, and the way it’s been parted have all been carefully styled to create a particular look.
9. Long Choppy Bob For Thick Hair
If you have thick hair and want to get rid of the bulk at the bottom without making your hair look rounded, go for choppy layers, as their different length keeps the hair from getting weighed down.
10. Lob With Textured Layers
Subtle layering in the back and point-cutting the ends results in bouncier tresses. This angled bob haircut with the long bangs frame the face and make this look extra modern!
11. Edgy Choppy Bob
Baby bangs might be trendy at the moment, but they’re also bold and unusual. If they’re your cup of tea, these jagged short bangs look deliberate and perfectly complement a choppy bob.
12. Low Maintenance Messy Bob Hairstyle
A choppy bob is easy to wear and easy to style. The layers take care of the volume, so you don’t have to blow-dry it unless you want a sleek look.
13. Choppy Lob With Curtain Bangs
Long curtain bangs, choppy layers and pretty waves work together to create a luxurious style, and the platinum blonde color takes it to an even higher level.
14. Edgy Short Choppy Haircut
This versatile edgy choppy bob is a great fit for highly-customized, unique colors. Because a dramatic color is so eye-catching, a cut that can be worn in many ways makes your hair easier to style for different occasions.
15. Choppy Bob Haircut For Curly Hair
Choppy bobs are usually styled to achieve an edgy and trendy look, but that’s not the only way to wear them: loose curls and warm light-brown highlights work together to create a romantic and soft style.
16. Choppy Layered Bob For Thick Hair
Most of the time, colorists use lighter colors around the face to brighten it, but this long layered bob combines the lighter base with darker face-framing curtain bangs to create depth and interest.
17. Jaw Length Choppy Bob With Bangs
Short choppy bob with just enough fringe to create interest around the face looks charming and casual, and it’s especially cute tucked behind the ear.
18. Choppy Shoulder Length Layered Bob
If you want barely-there beachy waves, use a straightener after your hair is completely dry. While holding it horizontally, clamp a small section of hair between the plates and turn your hand about 90 degrees. Pull down gently to create a soft bend in the hair.
19. Choppy Bob Haircut
Same haircut, two hairstyles. The difference between straight, wavy and curly hair is quite dramatic with a choppy bob, so take your time to experiment with different textures.

The color and the texture achieved by the choppy layers turn what could be an ordinary haircut into a contemporary and cool style.

Long layers give this wavy long bob with bangs movement without making it look layered, while the short, full bangs create a flirty, pin-up image.
22. Choppy Short Bob Hairstyle
When styling this kind of bob, you might be tempted to only bend the hair around ear level, but here’s a tip: add a bit of lift on top to create a more balanced style.
23. Messy Bob With Bangs
This casual and cute short choppy haircut is fun and youthful, thanks to the flippy layers and the pink color with root shadow.
24. Choppy Ear Length Bob
When cut straight at the bottom, a bob can actually look like the hair at the nape is longer, so a slight angle is used to offset this. Longer layers near the face will make your choppy bob appear completely straight!
25. Long Edgy Bob Haircut
This unusual combination of colors is fresh and fun, and it’s coordinated with the cut so that the individual colors and layers work together.

32. Textured Medium Choppy Bob
Pink balayage, anyone? This fun color is only possible on bleached hair, so to keep your hair healthy, a shorter haircut like this bob is useful if you need regular trims.

The kind of lift achieved using the layers and the bangs in this haircut elongates the face, so it’s very flattering if your face is round.
34. Jaw Length Edgy Choppy Bob
Split-tone color isn’t only for the indecisive but also for the bold. Pairing it with a choppy jaw-length blunt bob works so well because such an eye-catching color needs a simple cut to balance it.

Fine hair gets volume and dimension both from layers and shadowed roots, plus a shaggy bob haircut like this one is a great choice if your hair needs a boost.
