Blunt Bob with Bangs
A crisp, chin-length blunt bob paired with full, straight-across bangs softens a strong jawline while adding width at the cheekbones — a modern classic for inverted triangle face shapes.
Wearing this with an inverted triangle face
An inverted triangle face is broadest at the forehead and cheekbones and narrows sharply to a small, pointed chin. It's close to a heart shape but with a straighter, wider top.
The balance comes from the bottom up. Chin-length bobs, soft layers and volume at the ends add fullness around the jaw, while styles that break up a wide forehead keep the upper face from dominating.
Avoid short, sleek cuts that expose the full forehead and add nothing at the chin — they widen the top and make the narrow jaw look even smaller.

Blow-dry the fringe first with a small round brush, then smooth the lengths with a flat brush or iron. Keep the ends clean and polished so the blunt line frames the face deliberately.
