Short hair, don’t care.
Opt for color this summer with a statement-making blonde curly bob. The short length dramatically cuts down on weight, allowing for extra bounce all summer long.
A slightly longer bob that approaches “lob” territory is an effortless look for summer. For a great salon-worthy finish, try drying curls via plopping, a hair-drying technique that encourages curl definition and eliminates frizz.
Yes, bobs can be very sophisticated when styled straight and sleek. But there’s something about a wavy texture with volume that makes for a real show-stopping look. To encourage volume, work in a texturizing spray at the roots and tease with rattail comb.
Layering curls allows each spiral to keep its natural shape, which provides beautiful definition. And for a full effect, scrunch curls with a curl pudding and diffuse to lock in hydration and bounce.
The ‘90s and early ‘00s aesthetics continue to trend and, this summer, Y2K chunky highlights have found their way on curly bobs, making it a great way to experiment with color without the full commitment.
Let your curls live their most natural life by air-drying to this full spiral curly bob. In the mornings, simply grab a continuous mist spray bottle to give your hair a refresh without a full wash.
Bangs — whether cut straight across, micro, or curtain — help complement curly bobs by emphasizing the face shape and enhancing the cheek bones. When styling, spritz in a shine spray or curl mousse to keep hair from frizzing.
