Bob Hairstyles Over 40

The bob, a straight-cut hairstyle that can be any length, is recognized as one of the most perennially chic hairstyles for women of all ages. For women over 40, bob hairstyles are a convenient way to have a face-framing hairstyle that makes the most of hair's natural texture and thickness.

Angled Bob - Wendie Malick

The chin-length angled bob on Wendie Malick is enormously flattering to her thin face because it has some fullness on the sides. This is a great option for those of us with thinner hair, because the cut gives it volume and body while still looking very chic. Also note the side part, which is another way to play up the angled cut.
