Before your next visit to the salon, consider these variations of layered bob haircuts that suit women over 50 well:
1. Blonde Balayage Bob with Layers
Opting for a blonde balayage bob with stacked layers can be a great idea to give it a multi-dimensional look. This style includes lightening certain parts of your hair to get the sun-kissed effect and blending it well with your base color. Balayage is great for warming it up and making it look more interesting, making it look even more vibrant.
Using stacked layers also adds more interest and body to the bob. This is achieved by shortening the layers at the back and gradually lengthening them towards the front, thus creating soft angled lines. By doing this, not only will the shape of your bob be enhanced, but it will also introduce texture to your hair, giving the illusion of fullness and thickness.
To add maximum volume to your regrowth and encourage it to come back out, a volumizing mist should be used, says Brannon. Apply the volumizing mist to damp roots before blow-drying with a round brush held vertically upward to create height underneath the bulging hair bulbs. The volumizing mist promotes all-day style retention, allowing for longer-lasting lift and a layered look.
2. Layered Bob with Side Parting
The chin-length cut with soft, rounded layers is great for softening square jaw lines and adding balance to angular facial features. Specifically, this style focuses on creating soft, fragile locks that frame the face and help make faces appear curvier by drawing attention away from the strong angles characteristic of square jaws.
The trick behind this hairstyle lies in its ability to keep the hair full of vitality and life, making it look younger than it is. The chin-length edge prevents the hair from weighing it down, leaving it free to move naturally without being restricted by gravity or other forces on earth, such as those resulting from wind blowing against them or water falling on the head while showering. The rounded layers enhance this effect by providing shape and texture without weighing down the inherent lightness of the locks.
3. Pearl Cream Bob with Layers
This soft bob haircut draws attention with its layers that create movement and its pearl cream shade that adds a touch of elegance. The layers are well cut to allow the hair to fall naturally and not look too blunt or stiff. It’s not just about enhancing the dynamic effect of the hairstyle, but also about giving a modern twist to the traditional bob silhouette.
Particularly striking is the choice of a pearl cream color, which offers a sense of sophistication and luxury. It can be used to lighten dark hair in such a way that it is not very noticeable until people take a closer look at your hair. A pearl cream color perfectly matches the sleek bob cut, reflecting light in a way that accentuates the soft texture of the hair and the precision of the layers.
4. Textured Bob with Visible Layers
A layered haircut is a trendy alternative that will give an instant thickening effect and more volume, thus creating an illusion of fullness for younger-looking locks. In this style, different lengths are used during the haircut process to enhance depth and volume through layers.

The feathered layers blend effortlessly with no visible lines making it look effortless and resulting in a more natural look.
