Contrary to what its nickname suggests, the slob haircut is anything but messy—in fact, it’s polished and minimalist. This cut gets its almost ironic name by combining the words that describe it more accurately: sleek bob. Versatile and low-maintenance, it’s a favorite of many celebrities who love simple looks.
Here are some gorgeous ways to wear it.
1. Sleek Blunt Bob
Nothing says slob like a razor-sharp blunt bob, right? The sharp lines and clean silhouette are polished, with zero fluff and a sophisticated look.
2. Angled Slob Haircut
This slanted version of the slob cut is amazing if you want to elongate your face with a sleek, contemporary style. Round faces? You’ll love this.
3. Slob Haircut With Bangs
Bangs bring both softness and structure, and, of course, some face-framing action. Straight blunt bangs are the classic pairing for a sleek bob, but if you can’t quite pull them off, go for a wispy version like this one.
4. Lip-Length Slob Haircut
Hitting around lip height, this bob sculpts and sharpens the face. Its short length draws attention to the jawline, so go a little longer if you have a square face shape.
5. Razored Sleek Bob
This razored bob is still sleek but has a little edge. The ultra-fine tips bring a little movement and texture, so this version is great for fine hair types.
6. Long A-Line Sleek Bob
A longer front and shorter back give this style the drama of an angled cut and the versatility of longer length. Wear it sleek when you’re feeling the slob haircut trend, or style it with some texture for a change.
7. Layered Slob Haircut
The slob haircut is typically an one-length cut with no layers, but if you need a little face framing, a few shorter pieces near the face will give you some needed movement.
8. Long Sleek Bob With Bangs
Hitting at the shoulders, this lob straddles the line between bob and medium hair. Its shape is what keeps it in the bob category, and the bangs seal the deal.
9. Slob Haircut With Face Framing
Straight hair with no layers can be difficult to wear for diamond or heart-shaped faces. A few face-framing pieces at the front soften the sleekness of this cut and soften sharp lines.
10. Chin-Length Blunt Bob
Crisp, chin-length edges create a minimalistic and bold look. This cut is great for pin-straight hair, as it emphasizes the jawline and keeps styling simple.
