The bob is back
Tips & Tricks For Styling Your Short Hair
The bob is back in a big way and it looks like it's here to stay in 2024 with celebs like Hailey Bieber, Kourtney Kardashian and Emma Stone all making the chop. But whether you have a chic, chin-grazing French bob or you’re after a more tousled, laid back look, there are so many ways you can style your short hair!
Whether you’re wanting to dress it up, slick it back or leave it casual and cool, we’ve got a style to inspire you! Who said short hair was boring?
Straight and Sleek
If you’re looking for a timeless classic, keeping your bob sleek and straight is super versatile. Simple, striking and super simple to achieve – grab your fave straightener and pass over your bob for sleek, smooth locks. Flicking your hair under at the ends can also give you some bounce and body to your bob!
The Slick Back
If you’re wanting to get your bob up and out of your face but some strands are just too short, a slick back style is the perfect thing! Whether you’re wanting a half-up-half-down slicked back look adorned with a big bow or you're looking to create a chic slicked back bun a bob is the perfect canvas! Gel it back, tie it tight and you’re good to go!
A 90s Crimp
Whilst crimping might seem like a blast from the past, it can really take your bob to the next level, add texture and body with our Total Crimp and you have the ultimate cool girl hairstyle! Perfect for the going out season, a crimped bob is ready to party like it's 1999.
Laid Back Loose Waves
A bob screams laid back, and there’s no better way to further show your laid back lifestyle than with a loose wave. A big barrel waver like our Total Waves makes it ultra easy so you can style your bob and be out the door in minutes! A texture spray will help add more volume if that’s something you’re looking for too.
A Bouncy Blowout
If you’ve been wanting to take the plunge and make the cut but you love a long, bouncy blowout – we’ve got you! With the help of our Air Style Brilliance and a little bit of practice you can nail a bob blowout giving you bouncy, voluminous hair in no time.
Flicked Out Ends
If you’re after a hairstyle that’s as cool as it is cute, a bob with flicked out ends is the perfect thing! Casual but still put together and super simple to achieve, pass your straightening iron over the length of your hair and flick out when you get to the last inch. Wait for it to completely cool, spray it with some hairspray and voila, the perfect bob style to take you from day to night.
The Curl
It’s an oldie but a goodie, nothing levels up a bob quite like adding a curl. Whether you want tight curls or something more loose and laid back, adding a curl to your bob gives texture, bounce and body.
