The bob cut will be everywhere this season! Are you still waiting for your hairdresser appointment for the new school year? Stop everything and calmly read this article before cutting even a single strand of hair. You may have seen it, the bob is THE haircut to adopt starting this autumn and to keep in winter to give a new breath to your look. Which bob to choose according to your hair type? I will tell you everything about cuts and trends in this article.
The “job” bob
The job bob regularly returns to the hairstyle trends at the end of summer. The reason? It suits both straight and wavy hair, refreshes the face, and requires little maintenance. Job is an acronym for “jaw-length bob”, which means aesthetically that the bob frames the face at the jawline. Like Kaia Gerber, you can adopt this bob effortlessly with fine jewelry to enhance your face and outfit.
Chic and cool with its wavy effect, the job bob is also (and especially) very easy to style. Remember that the job bob should fall just below the chin to be successful.
The bob bob
A bit vintage, it pairs perfectly with long dresses and form-fitting outfits, adding a little sexy touch reminiscent of women from the 1950s, like actress Zendaya. Choose this bob cut if you enjoy spending a bit of time styling your hair in the morning, as the bob bob requires a small investment of time to leave the house with a beautiful hairstyle. I also advise you to care for your hair with masks and hydrate it often, as the regular blow-drying that this bob cut demands can quickly damage the hair.
The razored bob
A fan of Emily in Paris? Then it’s time to try the bob she sports in her daily life for a look.
The uniqueness of the Razored Bob lies in the razor-finished tips that give a slightly tousled effect to the cut. This technique must absolutely be performed by an expert hairdresser who will master the razor technique while protecting your hair.
In addition to being easy to adopt, this bob cut suits both straight and wavy hair. Remember this grandmother’s tip for making your hair shine: finish your shampoo by rinsing your hair with a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water.
Don’t hesitate to ask if this technique is possible at your hair salon (and also bring a photo of the bob you want, it always helps the hairdressers).
The short bob with bangs
Think of Angèle during her performance at the Olympics, stunning in her black Coperni jumpsuit. To adopt this cut, it’s better to have hair placement that goes with a short fringe to give a harmonious overall look. Unlike the job bob, this one does not suit everyone.
If, however, you have tried it and see that this cut does not suit you, now is the time to add accessories like clips or headbands that will help keep the hairstyle in place.
On the makeup side, as this cut highlights the structure of the face, go easy on eye or lip makeup to avoid a heavy look. Unless, like Angèle, you have to get on stage, opt for nude or coral shades, depending on your skin tone.
Shopping selection
The bob is a simple cut that often stands on its own. However, by adding a little clip like model Amelia Gray or an accessory like a headband or a clip, you can brighten up the cut. Hair accessories allow you to add a touch of personality to the bob.
