The Deep Side-Parted Lob
Never underestimate the transformative power of a parting. The deep side-parted lob takes a classic shoulder-length cut and injects it with instant glamour and volume. By parting the hair far to one side, you create a dramatic sweep of hair across the forehead, which naturally lifts the roots and creates the illusion of incredible height and thickness at the crown.
For women over 40, a deep side part is an excellent styling trick to soften asymmetrical features and draw attention directly to the eyes. It creates a beautiful, mysterious drape that feels incredibly sophisticated and red-carpet-ready. This cut works beautifully with both sleek, straight styling and voluminous, old-Hollywood waves, making it one of the most versatile options on this list.
