This textured lob is ideal for oval, heart, and square face shapes, as the outward-flicked ends help balance the jawline while the deep side-swept bangs soften the forehead. It performs best on medium to thick hair densities where there is enough natural volume to support the heavy internal layering without the ends appearing too thin or wispy. Those with straight to wavy hair will find the styling most manageable, as it requires enough structural integrity to hold a defined, piecey shape throughout the day.
Ask for a shoulder-length long bob with aggressive internal layering and point-cut, jagged ends to achieve a deconstructed, shaggy finish. Specify a deep side part with heavy side-swept bangs that are blended into shorter, face-framing layers to create a seamless transition. The stylist should use a razor or thinning shears to remove weight from the mid-lengths, ensuring the perimeter is light enough to be styled with an outward flick rather than a traditional under-curl.
Expect to visit the salon every six to eight weeks to maintain the specific weight distribution and prevents the flicked ends from drooping as they grow past the shoulders. Daily styling requires a round brush or flat iron to manually flip the ends upward, followed by a dry texturizing spray or light wax to define the jagged layers and maintain the shaggy volume.
Apply a firm-hold mousse to damp hair and blow-dry the ends upward using a small round brush, then lock the shape in with a cool shot of air and a hit of texture spray.
While the layers add volume, very fine hair can look sparse at the bottom if the ends are too jagged; a slightly blunter perimeter with internal texturizing is often a better modification.
This specific version is engineered for a deep side part to support the heavy bangs; a middle part will shift the weight and may cause the face-framing layers to fall awkwardly.
If you have natural wave, it takes about ten minutes with a bit of product, but straight hair may require fifteen to twenty minutes of heat styling to achieve the signature flicked-out look.
