Not much effort is needed to change the appearance of your face. A classic bob with a straight fringe compared with one with a side parting and fringe are very different looks. But it's not a one-or-the-other decision: they both come from the same cut!

Swept to one side, a fringed bob brings softness

Contour some softness and curves into your clean-cut fringed bob. For this, the parting should be moved to one side, with the fringe sweeping to the opposite side. This creates the effect of a rounded bob, gracefully and subtly surrounding the face.

Length and body: the all-in-one bob

According to Denis Holbecq, hair stylist ambassador for L'Oréal Professionnel, the side-swept bob is 'the right length to elongate a long face and give it some character, but also to balance out a triangular face'. Clearly no matter what the face shape, this cut brings a sophisticated shape to hair.

The side-swept fringed bob: a relaxed yet posh look!

This cut is a celebrity favourite. Not just for its relaxed yet chic appeal, but also for its easy maintenance. Perfect for today's hustle and bustle when a hair faux-pas is absolutely not on the agenda!
