How to Style a Bob

Posted in Styling Tips on April 9th, 2008 by Eileen

The feel of this “Bob” is a strong geometric shape, complimented with softness, but just how do you style it at home?
1. To keep the fringe (bangs) and edges strong and smooth, apply a smoothing serum, blowdry with a flat brush keeping the hair straight with a slight bend.
2. The textured layers through the crown should be enhanced with a texture or volumizing lotion, blowdry with less precision using your fingers or the flat brush but allowing the texture in the haircut to come through.
3. Now that the hair is completely dry, use the blowdryer, on cool air, to lift the textured layers, at the same time, spray a light spray wax through to enhance the separation and texture.
You are now rockin’ one hot bob!.
