Michelle Williams’ pixie is short, sweet, and sleek. Her deep side part helps add some body to her otherwise smooth and polished ‘do.

Miley Cyrus is known for being bold, and her hairstyle is no exception. This ‘do is not for the faint of heart, but if you’re feeling up to it, shave the sides of your head and get as much volume on top as possible.

Roxane Mesquida's Side-Swept Bob

Reminiscent of old Hollywood glam, Roxane Mesquida pulls most of her hair back but keeps her side-swept bangs in a loose s-wave. There are several different ways to get a similar look. One of the more traditional methods is to curl hair in one-inch sections with a small curling wand (the smaller, the better). Hold the curling wand perpendicular to the part. Start from the root and curl the hair over and around the wand. Don’t let the curl loose. Pull the curling wand out from the curl, pin the curl in place, and let the curl cool (about ten minutes). Do the same to all hair from the part down the side of the face in one-inch sections. Once all the curls have cooled, take the pins out and brush hair with a boar bristle brush. The curls should form into an “s” shape.

If you like the idea of a bob but don’t want to commit to the cut, take a page out of Rita Ora’s book. By curling the ends of your hair up after a blowout, you can create a bob style without reaching for the scissors.

Anja Rubik's Side-Swept Bob

This hairstyle takes a super wispy, and layered bob haircut and gives it a little spin by dropping a natural side-part and a tucked side to the mixture. Looks pretty badass if you ask me, not to mention that it’s simple enough to style.

Cate Blanchett's Side Parted Bob

Cate Blanchett has been keeping her hair pretty short, and that leads us to this wavy blonde bob. In this case, she’s gone and paired it up with an angled deep side part plus a little styling to her waves minimizing the frizz.

Balayage on Bob with Choppy Bangs

Balayage is a free-hand technique of highlighting hair to create a more natural gradation of lightness. It looks a bit more loose and free than traditional highlights and is especially great for looking naturally sun-kissed. It’s often associated with long, wavy beach hair, but looks incredible with a sophisticated bob and choppy bangs. The contrast of the two different looks, tawny and refined, definitely is a unique style.

Margot Robbie's Bob

Voluminous Pixie with Deep Side Part

This pixie cut is a little different from the traditional ‘do. You have to mix lengths in order to achieve that much volume; cut the sides of your hair short, but leave plenty of length on top to play with.

Part of what make bobs such an appealing style is that you can style them however you like. For instance, this curly bob sported by Katherine Heigl exudes old Hollywood, but the same style straightened would offer a more modern look.

A bob is a simple short style you can easily achieve without going as short as a pixie cut. While curly bobs are popular, try a sleek and smooth version like Zendaya for a retro feel.

Not all bobs need to follow the rules, and separating itself from the classics is what makes the layered bob so cool. Elizabeth Debicki’s take on this haircut is one that presents itself as playfully elegant.

Layers can create much-wanted texture through the hair but can also take away volume. By adding a side part, volume is given to the crown and balances any wispy layers.

Demi Lovato's Inverted Bob

Demi Lovato has been known to express herself quite a lot using different hairstyles. This style, however, is a bit more reserved and classical. The inverted bob does a great job at accentuating her facial features, and of course, the side-part is also a key part of the game.

Ursula Corbero's Choppy Crop

Pixie cuts are often paired with side-swept, romantic bangs. For an unexpected twist, opt for a feathery fringe across your forehead. Ask your stylist for choppy, short layers all over.

Brittany Snow's Mid-Part with Layered Bob

A straight or layered bob will look chic however you dress it. and in this example, Brittani Snow knows to go with some soft waves to accentuate her long layers. The side part is a nice touch but it can look just as stunning with a middle part.

Keri Russell's Wavy Bob

Kery Russel’s Luscious locks are to die for! Especially when she flaunts her incredible waves in a layered bob. Layered bobs look amazing on thick hair.

Undercuts aren’t only for the boys; they can be a great way to add some edge to your pixie cut, just as Halle Berry did. To take things to the next level, try adding some volume too.

This super elegant bob frames the face perfectly with its long side swept bangs. Pushing one side of the hair back behind the ear opens the face up even more. A little wave keeps the look from being too serious.

This is such a badass haircut for such a badass woman! Ursula Corbero is no stranger to short hair, known to wear an edgy bob haircut with short bangs as she played the role of Tokio in Netflix’s show Money Heist. But here she’s decided to go with a short mullet.

Paz Vega's Choppy Layered Crop

Paz Vega’s bone structure basically makes her a chameleon in terms of what haircuts suit her. This messy layered crop keeps the volume heavier on top and tapers down very lightly.

Classy Pompadour

The pompadour is a classy and classic way to give style and dimension to any look. It can be created with any length hair but is especially easy to create with shorter hair as shorter hair is lighter and can hold the volume needed on top. To get the look, use a volumizing spray to help create the poof and a gel or wax to slick back the sides.

Raven Symone's Undercut And Dyed Top

The star from That’s So Raven is known for being quite adventurous with her hair, this bleached tip undercut style looks super fresh on Raven!

Scissors and clippers have a different effect on your hair when it is cut. While clippers are better for super short styles, scissors can help create more dimension and volume.
