This jaw-length bob curves away from the neck at the ends. A smooth finish keeps the outward flip easy to see.

Talk to your stylist about

Point out how much of a flip you want and where the ends should sit.

Living with the look

Ask how to set the flip on your natural hair texture.

A helpful reality check

A preview cannot predict how your hair will fall, feel or grow. Use it to discuss length and shape, alongside your texture and routine.

What defines Flipped bob?

A flipped bob turns the ends outward along a short perimeter. The flip adds width near the jaw without requiring a longer cut.

Check where the outward turn sits next to the jaw. In profile and from behind, see whether the ends flare all the way around the nape.

Choose where the bob should end when it falls naturally. Ask how much styling is needed to get the outward turn with your texture.

French bob
A flipped bob turns its ends away from the neck. The French bob reference keeps a softer rounded edge around the jaw.

Can I still wear it with the ends turned inward?

Ask to see both directions and confirm where the perimeter will sit when you leave it unstyled.
