An undercut bob is an awesome style choice if you want to have a bold cut with a classy yet fresh look. An undercut involves a shaved or incredibly short length of hair from the nape of the neck upwards, usually to around the ear.
You can style this so many different ways, and the biggest draw is it looks put together with very little styling as well. Whilst a popular men’s style, women’s hairstyles are also embracing this fresh look and it’s not dropping in popularity any time soon!
An undercut bob looks the best as the shorter length of hair is easy to style and maintain whilst still giving you a feminine flair.
You can style this cut in more ways than a traditionally super short cut, and you can get all the freedom of short hair with the flexibility and style of a bob!

Frequently Asked Questions
Below are a couple of helpful FAQs about Undercut Bob Hairstyles you might find interesting!
What Style Of Hair Looks Best With An Undercut?
Thick hair looks great with an undercut as you can get rid of some of the weight in your hair and let your scalp breathe for a change! If you have a bob, it can help you from getting the dreaded ‘triangle head’ look when your hair is frizzy or unstyled.
For short hair, an undercut is great for being able to style and tie up your hair without worrying about wispy bits that can’t get into your pony or for letting your hair grow back healthier if you have damaged hair whilst still enjoying a bit of length.
What To Do When You Want to Grow Out Your Undercut?
You might absolutely love your undercut, but even the most stalwart fans may eventually want to switch it up. What do you do when you’re bored of your undercut and want to give something else a try?
The best thing about an undercut with a bob is that you can grow it out with relative ease!
Hair naturally grows faster at the nape of your neck, so when you grow out your undercut it helps to have a cut that is already long at the front so you don’t have to trim it back or style it as often.
Yeah, there’s no getting around it, sometimes pixies and undercuts go through some weird growing out phases, but it’s all part of the fun if you embrace it!
You can style it out with clips to tuck it out of the way, grow your bob slightly longer to blend away your growing undercut, or let it hang loose, embracing your punk mullet vibes.
What Are The Benefits Of Getting An Undercut?
Undercuts are fantastic for literally every hair texture.
They are the perfect style if you want a non-committal dip into the world of shaved heads but don’t want to take the plunge.
They are low maintenance and having less hair can be perfect if you struggle to dry your hair in the morning.
It takes some weight off so your hair will have more bounce and life to it. You can enjoy all the benefits of short hair whilst still having some hair to play around with when you want to switch up your style.
