What is the French Bob?
The French bob is a timeless haircut that sits just above the jawline, typically paired with blunt bangs or a soft fringe. This chic style is all about natural texture, minimalism, and a sophisticated edge that never goes out of fashion.

Effortlessly Elegant
The French bob features a Parisian flair that's both stylish and low-maintenance. It's perfect for those summer days when you want to look polished without spending hours styling your hair. Ideal for summer, the French bob keeps you cool and comfortable in the heat while still looking stylish. Never worry about the sweaty hair around your neck again.
Oh, so versatile
This cut works beautifully with all hair types, whether you have straight, wavy, or curly hair. It can be worn sleek and smooth or tousled and textured for a more relaxed vibe. Our expert hairdressers recommend lightly styling the French Bob with a curling iron or hair straightener for more effortless curls before applying a small amount of styling spray to create waves that last all day.

Experts' tips to style the French Bob
Sleek and Smooth: For a polished look, blow-dry your hair straight and use a flat iron to smooth out any waves. Finish with a shine serum for a glossy finish.
Soft Waves: Create soft, loose waves using a curling wand or a flat iron. This gives your French bob a romantic and effortless vibe, perfect for summer outings.
Blunt Bangs: Pair your French bob with blunt bangs for a bold and edgy look. This combination is striking and draws attention to your eyes.
Side Part: Experiment with a deep side part to add a touch of asymmetry and sophistication to your French bob.
