The bob haircut is trickier to pull off than it looks. Finding a shorter style that works specifically for your hair color, texture, and volume, not to mention your face shape and general aesthetic, can take some trial and error (and some consultations with hair experts). Fortunately, the bob haircut is also more diverse than it initially seems. It can range from chin length to almost shoulder-grazing, and it can have no layers, some layers, or all the layers. For bob haircut purists, I hear you about to argue that the "traditional " bob looks a particular way—and you're not wrong—but the style has evolved to include different types of hair. A bob cut with no layers won't work for people with curly to kinky hair (any hair type that's 2C and curlier, in other words). So some of these are going to have more layers than you might otherwise see in a traditional bob, but I don't want to leave out curly girlies! (If it wasn't already obvious, I have very curly hair myself.)
