France has long been considered to be the fashion capital of this world. Coco Chanel had famously said, " Fashion is architecture, it is a matter of proportions". The experimentation with various forms of hairstyles has been long been a part of fashion history. The French bob carries the legacy and essence of the French sense of fashion with its unique chin length shape, adorable bangs and a simple blunt hairstyle.
1. Simple French Bob
Simplicity can be the essence of life, whether it is any dress or any elegant hairstyle rocked in a simple manner. The hair is cut in an ideal blunt shape with some fringes brushing the eyebrows. The bangs are neatly visible and the hair is cut to the length of the chin. The style is chic and fashionable and carries a touch of the nostalgic element of France.
2. Sweet French Bob
A very sweet hairstyle is what many of us would love to flaunt. If you are a young woman between the age of 30 and 40, probably this the ideal time for you to try out such hairstyles. The youthful appearance of the hair can make you look vibrant and energetic. The hair looks a little unbrushed and that greatly enhances the cute and dramatic appeal.
3. Curly French Bob
The French bob can be easily decorated with coils and curls. Generally, the otherwise plain French bob can be designed accordingly which also showcases the versatility of the style. The hair looks magnificent and charming. The curls add a very ethereal beauty to the entire framework of your face.
4. French Bob With Texture
The graceful bangs at the side and front of the hair look as sweet as charming. They form the defining element of the entire texture of this bob hairstyle. The hair can be light brown or it can also be adored with other alluring shades according to your choice. The smooth and tousled texture forms a unique combination to build up this style.
5. French Bob With Brown Highlights
Blends of colour change the entire ambience of the place that you are in. The hair in the bob shape has been historically experimented with a variety of colours even by the greatest icons of the fashion world. Here, the lady in the image rocks some fiery red dye job that goes perfectly well with the beautiful black hair that crowns her head.
6. French Bob With Glasses
One may wonder about the significance of glasses when it comes to different fashionable hairstyles. Well, they are actually of paramount significance as they serve the purpose of framing up your face. The hair is cut short in the typical bob format and they can carry light to a little dark shade of blonde in them. The right pair of glasses add a very remarkable sense of personality to your entire presence in the room.
7. French Bob With Light Curls
The French bob is already a statement of style in its own original form. When the element of some light curls or waves are added to it, its beauty and sophistication absolutely holds no parallel. The brown hair is perfectly well-suited for the light bangs of this chic chin-lengh hairstyle. By sporting this look, you can also reflect unparalleled cheer and charm like this lady in the above image.
8. French Bob With Bangs
One of the very essential criteria of a French bob style is the presence of bangs. Now, the bangs can be of various textures and lengths and they can be further beautified using some light hues or shades. The hair can be neatly parted at the middle to reflect a goddess-like beauty, like the lady in the above image.
9. French Bob In Black
Hair partings help to distribute voluminous hair well. The tousled and voluminous texture can look excellent in polished black hair. The bangs can be designed accordingly. The hair looks magnificently layered and some bold-red lipstick only accentuates that look.
10. French Bob With Medium Curls
French bob styles go equally well both for straight and curly hairstyles. The medium curls of the hair are more concentrated throughout the hair, rather than being at the bottom like in the case of some long hairstyle. The mid length hair or the short hair of the French bob features these beautiful curls that decorate your hair which can be ideally kept black or brown.
11. French Bob With An Angle
Angled bobs or A-line bobs seem to be extremely common in the world of bob hairstyles. The hybrid of the French bob and an angle that forms the baseline is what makes the style a little different and unique. The gradual increase in length from back to front forms the baseline of the hair. Other than that, bangs and the chin-length shape is what forms the defining characteristic of this graceful hairstyle.

Shades of blonde never go out of style. This may have been a highly common way to make oneself look adorable since a very long time in the world of fashion. However, the intensity of the colour should depend upon place, time and the personal choice of the one who tries it. The shades of blonde should be light sometimes to create a good contrast with the already dark colour of your hair.
14. Messy French Bob
This might actually reflect that you are quite a busy person! The hair being dishevelled and messy is what reflects your personality in this case. Like other shaggy hairstyles, the tousled nature of the hair is very clearly visible and the bangs that are made are also kept a little curly to frame up your face. The fringes of your hair only graze the eyebrows.

Blonde, whether it is heavy or light, carries a very unique charm of its own. That is why it is such a favoured and a popular hairstyle.
