At Joseph’s Wigs, we offer almost 300 bespoke bob wigs from industry-leading designers, available in a plethora of stunning shades. Today, we answer your frequently asked questions about this classic style and share everything you need to know to pick out your perfect bob wig.

Should a bob be longer at the front?

An A-line bob, which is shorter at the back and longer in the front, is renowned for it’s face flattering abilities and for adding volume to the hair. Whilst bob wigs come in various styles, an A-line bob wig can be an excellent addition to your collection, as it is almost guaranteed to flatter your face shape.

How do you wear a bob wig?

Despite being a shorter style, bobs offer lots of versatility when it comes to styling.  

Human hair and heat friendly bob wigs are recommended if you would like to style your hair with heat. These hair types will give you ample versatility and allowing you to experiment with curling, straightening and blow-drying tools to change up your look.

Did you know human hair wigs can also be coloured? So, whether you’re looking to replicate your natural hair, or try something new, you have the flexibility you need to play around with a variety of styles.

Bob wigs can also be accessorised with hair grips and clips, tied back or worn with a pretty head band. Ultimately, there are no limits when it comes to styling your wig, as long as you use the correct maintenance products, and determine whether a synthetic or human hair wig is right for you based on your requirements.

How do you cut a bob so it doesn’t look like a triangle?

Looking to avoid a triangular look? Here’s how you can do it!

Bobs can have a triangular or ‘bubble-like’ appearance when there is too much weight at the ends. So, the key to minimising this is through adding invisible layers underneath, to collapse the shape.

Alternatively, pick out a pre-styled wig that has the shape you are looking for.
