An undercut bob haircut is extremely versatile and easy to style. While some of you would effortlessly rock a daring bob haircut with a shaved side, there are more subtle options like a hidden undercut or a bob with an undercut nape too. Scroll down to see a selection of all the best ways to wear an undercut bob. Which of these hairstyles would you dare to try? An undercut bob is any type of bob with a taper of a buzz cut in the back or on the sides. Often, longer stands left on top can cover the shaved area. Bolder variants of an undercut bob feature a fully buzzed side that can additionally come with a haircut design. The undercut initially became popular among men in 1910-1940 and regained its popularity in the 1980s before becoming a major trend of the last decade – this time among girls. See the best ideas on how to style a bob with an undercut in 2024.
1. Asymmetrical Bob with a Shaved Side
