Features of a ragged bob haircut

With the classic execution of a square, the hair is cut just above shoulder level in a clear straight line. When performing a torn bob over a classic haircut, the ends of the hair are cut according to the type of cascade.

• a variety of styling, thanks to which you can correct the oval of the face (hide angularity or excessive roundness);
• ease of styling, which does not need to be corrected during the day;
• in the process of cutting, you can eliminate all split ends, since the haircut is layered;
• torn bob is combined with hair of any length;
• a haircut can be done with or without bangs;
• layering can be created at different levels, both from the crown of the head and at the ends of the hair.

Some disadvantages and cons:

• frequent adjustments are recommended to preserve the look of the hairstyle;
• the complexity of the haircut. It is extremely difficult to perform it at home; a visit to a hairdressing salon is required;
• not suitable for heavily curly hair.

A torn bob for medium hair is considered a versatile haircut that suits any type of face, any hair density and age. But the following points should be considered:

You can further improve the look of the haircut and add volume by highlighting the strands.

Varieties of torn bob for medium hair

A torn bob for medium hair can be made in several versions.

With a bang

Torn bob is combined with bangs in any design (straight, oblique, torn). When choosing the type of bangs, it is recommended that you first determine the type of face. It is important that the bangs harmoniously complement the haircut.

When choosing straight or oblique bangs, it is recommended to thin the ends, since a completely even bang is not combined with the torn ends of the hair of the haircut itself.

No bangs

When choosing the design of a torn bob without bangs (also matched to the oval of the face), you can change the type of haircut using a parting. It can be made oblique or zigzag. It is important that a straight parting with this type of haircut is not desirable.

On straight hair

For owners of straight hair, you can pick up a torn square in any design (cascading, with asymmetry, for lengthening). When choosing a haircut, the main role is the density and thickness of the hair. Thin hair adds fluffiness when styling medium length hairstyles.

To eliminate massiveness in thick hair, it is recommended to make a torn bob with thinning hair (made with thinning scissors).

It is important that in order to maintain the volume and lightness of the hairstyle, the haircut must be adjusted every 1-1.5 months.

On curly hair

When choosing a haircut for curly hair, you need to take into account the shape of the curls. If the hair curls in a small ring, then it is recommended to refuse this type of hairstyle, since the haircut will look unkempt. With wavy hair, a torn bob for long hair without bangs is more suitable, and styling is not required in most cases.
