A long stacked bob is a neck-length haircut that features shorter layers in the back. This dramatic chop creates an angled cut with a rounded, full-bodied shape, perfect for thin tresses.
Hailed from the ’60s classic trend, a stacked bob is a go-to look for women who love something edgy and stylish.
When choosing the best stacked long bob for you, talk with your stylist about your hair texture, length, and facial features. Your stylist can alter the cut slightly to make it look its best on you.
Kansas-based stylist Faith Kauer believes that this lob is flattering on everyone, though. “Just tailor the length and side profile, and you’re good to go!” she says.
Kauer confirms that layers aren’t always the answer to achieve volume. She continues, “I’d suggest a little less layering and more texture on the top layers. This will create a weightless look with a beautiful side profile.”
According to Kauer, maintenance is one crucial factor to consider. To keep stacked lobs in shape, visit the salon every 5-7 weeks.
When styling, she loves Volume Envy by Techni Art while blow-drying. But for finishing touches, she uses Next Day Hair Spray for added texture or Super Dust for a maximum lift.
