The A-Bob

Give a classic, sleek bob a bit of a twist by leaving one side longer than the other to create the asymmetrical bob. Bangs can blend into one side of the bob with a long layer, sweep across the forehead, or lay straight across the forehead. Part hair on the side or in the middle. The bob look keeps the haircut classy, while the asymmetry adds interest and spunk.

The I-Bob

One of the most popular asymmetrical styles, the inverted bob, turns the classic bob around. Hair is cut shorter in the back, while the sides sweep forward in longer pieces. There are a number of different ways to achieve the inverted bob. The most important consideration is the shape of the face. The hair should always frame the face in a way that complements each individual’s unique face shape.

Peek a Boo

Draw attention to your most beautiful asset, your face. Keep locks boy short in the back and on the sides, even carving around the ears. Then, for dramatic effect, leave bangs long and shaped into a point. Sweep them to either side, camouflaging half of your face, or tuck them behind an ear to reveal your mug.

Go Chunky - Ashley Simpson - Asymmetrical Haircuts

Go Chunky

Give yourself the look of a rock star with chunky layers throughout. Keep some layers short and others longer, ending in a more spike-like look around the head. The longest, bottom layer supports all the layers, ending an inch or two below the ears. Balance all the spikes with a softer, side-swept bang.
