You can play around with highlights or ombre finishes and add braids or cute accessories to make your style pop. The following suggestions are our favorite A-Line Hairstyles.

1. Beach Bob with Bouncy Waves

If you add soft ombre hair color to this style it will give you the feel of perfectly natural sun-kissed highlight for a perfect summer do. If you are looking for a casual inverted bob, beach waves are ideal as they provide loads of texture and aren’t overdone like spiral curls.

2. Exaggerated Angled Stacked Bob

If you want more volume in the back of your A-line haircuts, this steeper cut will work for you. It is important to keep curls and waves to a minimum because of the natural fullness of this style.

3. Ombre-A-Line Cut with Bangs

This cut is a classic A-line style with its sloping angle as it is longer in the front and shorter in the back without the use of layers. You can opt for an ombre style or go for a balayage (or hand-painted) technique to achieve outstanding colors midway through to the ends.

4. A-Line Cut with Side Braid

Don’t be fooled into thinking A-line style lacks creativity. Simply add a twist, French braid or other embellishment of your choice. To achieve this look, all you have to do is tuck the braid behind one ear and pin it. Add some color or accessories to make this style stand out.

5. A-Line Cut with a Deep, Side Part

This cut with its deep side part creates a surprisingly feminine yet dramatically daring and edgy effect for those with attitude.

6. Medium A-Line Bob with Braid Crown

If you have shorter hair, it doesn’t mean you can’t sport a trendy braid crown. To rock this style, simply braid the middle of your hair loose and tuck it behind your ear to hide the ends. Highlights or ombre finishes will really make the braid pop.

7. A-Line Cut Paired with a Dramatic Color

Straight, sleek A-line cuts look amazing when you add a fun and vibrant hue. If you have dark hair, a pale blue will look stunning. However any base color with brilliant dye will work. To really rock this style, keep your hair straight.

8. Short A-Line Haircut

This ultra-messy hairstyle sports long, soft layers for those with straight and fine hair. The tousled look is all the rage now. In addition to looking trendy, you will feel sexy with this short playful style. Add some ombre touches to complete the look.

11. How to Style A-Line Bob Straight and Sleek
