bob haircut

Short, blunt cut

A bob haircut is a women's hairstyle in which the hair is cut short and even, typically at jaw length or above, with the ends forming a clean horizontal or angled line.

The style emerged in the 1920s as a bold break from long Victorian hair and remains a classic: She got a sleek bob for the summer.

Variations include the inverted bob, asymmetrical bob, and lob (long bob).
