Short haircuts, back view (57 photos)

Quite recently, we published a whole block of articles about short haircuts, their varieties, hairstyles for short haircuts and coloring. We talked about how even ultra-short haircuts can be feminine and sexy. What can we say about more elegant options such as bob and bob. In our article today we will recall the main types of short haircuts and talk about how they should look from the back. After all, the rear view is also very important when creating an image. The haircut should look impeccable from all sides.

Who is the hat suitable for?

This unique haircut effectively combines different types of hairstyles, long smooth and voluminous short. The apparent ease of installation actually requires increased attention and care. Frequent visits to the hairdresser to correct growing strands should be made a rule. How to improve your appearance:

A voluminous hat will help visually restore the correct proportions to a pear-shaped face.
Girls with thin and weak hair are recommended to get a haircut. The increased volume will provide the curls with a beautiful and healthy look.
Fashionistas with a long face will gain charm and elegance by getting a cap haircut. The front and rear views will be spectacular and stylish.
The image of girls with a beautiful neck and a well-shaped nape will be especially airy and tender.
Those with fine facial features will not go unnoticed when they cut their hair with a cap.

There is a category of girls who are not advised to cut their hair with a cap. Coarse and curly hair completely disrupts the classic haircut shape. The styling also looks unsightly on women with a heavy chin and short neck. Light and fluffy curls will have to be constantly treated with gel.

Straight hair and a long neck are the basic requirements for appearance

A haircut with strands shorter in the back than in the front and a smooth transition from short-cut strands to long-cut strands will look impressive and neat only on straight hair.

Owners of curly and wavy hair are better off choosing other options that will not require daily labor-intensive styling.

Short strands at the back and long strands at the front will look untidy on curly hair. And daily use of a straightening iron to straighten your curls will not only quickly get boring, but will also cause harm to them.

This hairstyle focuses attention on the neck due to the fact that the strands at the back of the head are short. Therefore, it is better to choose it for girls with a beautiful long neck, which is not ashamed to emphasize with a fashionable hairstyle.

These are the basic requirements for a haircut with hair on the back of the head shorter than that on the face, the fulfillment of which is mandatory. Other features of her appearance cannot spoil her.

Long strands at the front help hide some imperfections in your face shape.

A bob haircut will correct a round face and bring its shape closer to an ideal oval. Strands on the face, cut long, will help hide wide cheekbones or a massive jaw. And thinning the side strands will allow you to visually correct the elongated shape of your face.

What kind of hairstyle is this?

The haircut is long in the front and short in the back and is represented by several options, united by one technique. The main feature of such hairstyles is a short occipital region and elongated bangs. The haircut looks voluminous and therefore suits even thin hair. But this is not the only reason why such hairstyles are in great demand. Their advantages also include:

Versatility - this stylish model has no age restrictions and looks equally beautiful on both young girls and adult women;
Great for any face type;
Easily corrects imperfections in appearance (heavy double chin, chubby cheeks, too narrow, elongated or wide shape, protruding cheekbones) and brings the face closer to the ideal oval;
Maintains the length of the strands, allowing you to change the style;
Makes the look soft and feminine.

The most non-standard solutions

A few years ago, shaving the temples became fashionable. If previously this was the prerogative of punks and other representatives of informal movements, now glamorous fashionistas and models use this technique. It is worth noting that in the case of an asymmetrical haircut, in which the front becomes shorter than the back of the head, this technique can become an “amplifier”. The temples are completely shaved, the strands that fall on the cheekbones are shortened, and the bulk of the hair that remains at the back remains as long as possible. The second variation is one shaved temple. Then the asymmetry in such a technique is visible only on one half of the head - right or left.

Obvious advantages of a haircut

Cutting hair under a cap has a number of advantages, for which dozens of girls part with long curls. Who is this haircut suitable for:

Suitable for wavy and straight curls. Looks impressive on thin hair; increased volume with the help of thinning strands makes the hairstyle voluminous and stylish.
The haircut opens up the face and neck of women as much as possible. Attention is focused on the advantages of the fashionista, eyes and lips. Therefore, the makeup must be perfect.
Older fashionistas look much younger than their age; the haircut adds freshness and energy to the image.
The haircut is very easy to adjust. Change the look and shape of bangs, dye your curls using any technology and grow your hair longer.
Easy and quick installation saves a lot of time and money.

Among the shortcomings, two points can be noted. The haircut requires regular correction of growing hair and is suitable for girls only according to certain parameters. The front and back appearance of the cap haircut should be neat and stylish.

Styling and coloring Kare

Regardless of the chosen type of haircut for an evening, a festive celebration, or for different looks for every day, you can come up with:

“shaggy”, careless style - wash your hair, dry it, tousle it with your hands. You can add products to make your hairstyle last longer;

Bob bob

twist the strands a little, creating a playful and cheerful look. It looks very inviting - see photos of options;

style with waves, fix with means to create a retro look;
curl the ends inward or outward;
weave strands into a braid, two or more, even together with bangs;
twist it into flagella and make a playful, completely youthful hairstyle.

Fashionable coloring Kare

The bob looks good on hair of a wide variety of shades - fair-haired, red-haired and dark-haired girls choose this haircut and look great. The haircut is also ideal for highlighting - you can create the effect of burnt hair, dye it zonally and combine it with asymmetry. You can simply dye your bangs or several strands of the classic version in a color different from your native one.

Nowadays “natural” coloring is in fashion – choosing shades close to the natural hair color and creating a spectacular shimmer.

Many of our photos of different versions of the bob, with and without bangs, especially the back and front views, make it possible to clearly see what the difference is between the subtypes of this haircut. We hope that our descriptions and photos provided enough information to visually imagine yourself in a new role and decide to change your image.

Long bob

This variable haircut can be combined with different bangs and has an original shape. The following fashionable haircuts for long hair are possible:

Straight bob. Allows you to make your eyes more expressive. The optimal choice for those with angular or “heavy” facial features, as well as small eyes.

Graduated bob. Allows you to make curls thicker.

Asymmetrical bob. Different lengths of strands allow you to disguise some cosmetic defects, as well as attract the attention of people around you. There are sharp (for example, a bob combined with a shaved temple) and smooth solutions. The emphasis is on the advantages and the disadvantages are hidden. The curved cut of the lower edge, slightly milled ends of the strands, and chaotic sloppiness in the curls will add originality and femininity.

Bob with long bangs. For those with an oval or round face, thick bangs in the form of an arc are suitable. If your face is square or triangular, then you should prefer oblique bangs with torn edges.

How to choose the perfect option

The level of cutting of the shortest strands in the front part is important. For example, if you have a round face, you should not start your haircut at the level of your cheeks or chin - this will further emphasize your roundness. For any shape, a win-win option would be the initial strands just below the shoulders.

When considering a future haircut, consider what hair color you will choose for it. The multi-stage technique harmonizes wonderfully with any shade of hair, but looks best in combination with fashionable types of coloring. Strands of different tones add depth of color and emphasize the uniqueness of the haircut.

Note! Multifaceted coloring with shifting tones is an excellent technique for thin hair that needs volume.

Thinning is a wonderful addition to haircuts with different lengths of strands. This technique requires heavy and thick hair, which subsequently acquires airiness, dynamics and texture. Unfortunately, thinning is not suitable for thin hair.

Talk to your stylist about whether you need graduation, because cutting your locks at a certain angle also harmonizes perfectly with multi-level haircuts.

Haircut options

Many different haircut options allow girls to choose the right look for themselves in all respects. You can simply add various details to your haircut, bangs, long temples or torn strands. Types of haircuts:

The classic hat is made with bangs of any length. The cap is shaped by twisting the strands inward along the entire circumference of the styling. But some fashionistas prefer the option without bangs. In this case, the front curls are laid to one side or on both sides, connecting it with the hairstyle. The result is a classic hat. The rear view of the haircut resembles a ball.
Cutting your hair in layers will help hair that looks ugly without enough volume. Therefore, the upper part of the hairstyle is processed in the form of a cap, without changing the main length of the curls. The effect of lightness and neatness appears. The length of the strands allows for various styling.
The cap-on-a-leg version got its name from the hair cutting technology. The back of the head area is cut very short, revealing the entire neck, like a leg on which the bulk of the hair rests. You can safely experiment with the front part of the head, lengthen the temples, frame the oval of the face with curls and use bangs of various shapes.
A multi-layer cap is an ideal option for long-haired beauties whose hair ends are split and it’s a pity to part with curls. The haircut is performed in several layers. Long hair is the bottom layer, a cap to the ear line is the middle layer, and voluminous hair on the top of the head is the top layer.

The asymmetrical hat has recently become very popular among young people. The advantage of a haircut is its versatility, a large number of unexpected options and the brightness of the acquired image. You can style your hair in different ways, which allows you to look impressive and stylish every time. Here are several types of styling:

Double cap. The length of one layer reaches the temple, the other to the earlobe.
Uneven geometry option. There are no strict rules or restrictions. It does not have smooth transitions, all lines are sharply defined.
On the sides of the head, the curls are not the same length. It all depends on the flight of fancy.

Thanks to the effect of asymmetry elements, you can successfully correct the irregular shape of the face and hide minor flaws in appearance. Styling is not particularly difficult, and if you dye your haircut in bright colors, you can go to a themed party.

The best haircut models

What is the name of a hairstyle in which the hair has different lengths? She has several names! Let's take a closer look at each of the options!

Elongated bob

This model is always in fashion and suits almost all ladies. A creative elongated bob emphasizes the texture of the strands and visually increases their volume.

The main thing is not to go beyond the level of the shoulder blades. In this case, the hairstyle will lose its shape. Another plus of the square is that you can easily modify it. It will be enough to change the line of the bangs and make a different edging.

Short bob with side bangs

As you can see in these photos, a short bob with long bangs is perfect for those with thin and sparse hair. And on thick hair it’s absolutely perfect! When performing a hairstyle, the strands are cut in layers, which are placed on top of each other. The length of the strands at the back of the head is removed as much as possible, and long oblique bangs remain in front.

Boy haircut with long bangs

The classic model, complemented by elongated front strands, suits absolutely everyone and goes well with both street and office style. When choosing her, neither height, nor face type, nor age play a big role. At the back, a boyish haircut is cut short enough to fully expose the neck. The front curls remain elongated and reach the middle of the ears. They are combed to the side.

Ladder

The shape is the basis of most modern hairstyles. It lightens thick hair well, gives volume to thin curls, and looks impressive with many colors. This is a winning option for those who want change, but do not want to part with length. If there is a need, it is quite possible to try a variant of the shape, such as a ladder, when the haircut is “short in front, long in back.” This is very convenient, because if something doesn’t suit you, you have the opportunity to continue growing your curls. The hairstyle can be done in such a way that the back length can be freely gathered into a ponytail, or made into braids or plaits. If desired, the hairstyle can be decorated with ribbons, headbands, and hairpins.

There is also a wide variety of options with asymmetry based on a ladder. Older women can choose a more relaxed shape, with a slight extension at the back of the head and a light “cap” on top. Young ones, on the contrary, have clearer shapes and ragged cut lines. As an option, you can dye the hair at the back of the head or the “cap” or bangs a different color.

How to cut a haircut

The technique of cutting a cap is not very complicated and, with the necessary skill in using the tool, can be done at home. To work, you will need scissors, hairpins, a wide-tooth comb, a hair dryer and a thinning tool. The entire cutting process is performed on moistened hair:

Comb the curls thoroughly and separate the side and temporal strands.
Divide the temporal curls into upper and lower parts. Place one behind the ear, cut the other with an oblique cut. The first cut strand serves as a guide.
Divide the occipital area with a horizontal parting into the upper part for the cap, leaving the lower part long. Secure the top of the hair with hairpins.
Comb and straighten long curls with scissors.
The crown is processed around the circumference with an even cut, focusing on the first strand.
Profile all the curls, carefully examine the result, eliminate imperfections and fix with varnish.

How to style your hair?

In order to do the styling, it is not necessary to contact a specialist; you can do it at home. To do this you will need a hair dryer, curling iron, round comb, mousse or gel. The curling iron can be replaced with curlers, ironing or brushing. Styling must be done on clean hair.

Pull out small strands using a round comb and dry them with a hairdryer at the roots, paying special attention to the area at the back of the head.

How to trim

Before you start creating a new hairstyle, you need to decide on the long strands in front and back. As a result, visually you should get an oval.

Therefore, girls with different appearance features need to choose different lengths of strands. At the back they can be very short and open the neck, or they can be a little longer. The technique for doing a hairstyle with strands longer at the face and shorter at the back of the head is as follows:

Wet your hair with water from a spray bottle;
Make a straight parting;
Start cutting from the back strands, cutting them short, and gradually increase the length towards the front strands.

To end up with a stylish and neat look, you need to constantly monitor the symmetry of the strands. This is why they first make a straight parting.

You also need to monitor the bevel from the back strands to the front, it should be perfectly even. The angle of the bevel can be different, but the best option would be the angle that coincides with the angle of the cheekbones.
