Use Kerastase Elixir Ultime clarifying shampoo to clear away product build-up and enhance shine for best results.
Side-Swept Bob
A side-swept bob with layered bangs is an effortless and playful way to elevate your look. No matter whether your hair is straight or wavy, its soft layers add volume while simultaneously framing your face shape. This layered bob is stunning with its rich chestnut brown hue. Opt for light highlights at the front and mid-lengths of your locks to enhance their beauty without adding too much length. Layered bobs are ideal for thick hair, and this one proves it. A bit of balayage goes a long way toward emphasizing its layers and adding depth and dimension to this classic cut.
Long Bob
A long bob is an ideal style for women with naturally straight hair. Adding side fringe or curtain bangs can make this look immensely flattering and sun-kissed natural. Pair yours with subtle balayage for added dimension. Red hair adds an eye-catching pop, while blonde balayage emphasizes its textured length. If you’re feeling adventurous, try adding dip dye colors for an even fresher and modern feel – it’s the perfect way to express yourself and experiment with more youthful looks!
Wavy Bob
Wavy bobs with long layers are an excellent way to add fullness and frame the face, particularly for those with thick strands that feel heavy in a blunt cut. Rusty-red highlights add an eye-catching flare to this shoulder-length bob with a deep side parting that slims round cheeks. This pretty textured bob is the ideal weekend look. Pair cute choppy bangs with this long inverted bob for an effortlessly chic style you can adapt for any special occasion.
Deep Side-Part
Adding a deep side part can elevate your look even when wearing your signature red locks in a sleek ponytail. Just be sure to use volumizing hairspray to maintain fresh and stylish results! People may think middle parts have taken over and Gen Z would never wear side parts, but this style still goes strong. Side parts add effortless volume while framing and emphasizing your features beautifully. This could be an excellent option if you’re growing out your bangs or simply seeking something different.
Angled Bob
A bob with steeply angled layers is one of the most striking hairstyles for thick hair, short in the back with long front strands stacked at its front to add volume and shape. Ask your stylist for a shorter than shoulder length and a face-framing side part to achieve a feminine yet chic look that you can wear to work or out for a friend’s party. Add color to your bob for instantaneous styling! For maximum impact, go for natural hues, bo,ld pastels, or balayage highlights.
Wavy Baby Bangs
Wavy baby bangs offer a contemporary take on the short fringe trend, adding texture while framing your face stylishly. Perfect for curly locks. Ask your stylist for layers throughout your bangs to achieve a texturized appearance, and remember to schedule touch-up appointments every two weeks to maintain perfect baby bangs. When leaving the salon, pack a hairbrush in your bag and volumizing spray for touch-ups!
Tousled Bob
Wavy bobs can be risky business, but this chin-length style from stylist Co Tran is chic and modern with its face-framing layers and light dusting of hair products to break up waves and add piecey texture for an effortlessly cool vibe. A choppy bob is typically bold and dramatic, yet this one adds feminine notes through soft blonde balayage tones. Additionally, its angled cut adds shape to your face for a timeless look that always stays in style.
