Okay, so, I’ve been wanting to change up my hairstyle for a while now, and I finally took the plunge and went for a wavy bob. I gotta say, it was a bit of a process, but I’m loving the results! Here’s how it all went down.
First things first, I spent hours scrolling through pictures online, trying to find the perfect wavy bob inspiration. I knew I wanted something that was easy to style but still looked chic, you know? After a lot of back and forth, I settled on a slightly inverted bob, which is shorter in the back and a bit longer in the front. This gives it that cool, angled look that I was going for. I didn’t like it before, but now I think that I love this cool hairstyle!
Next up, I booked an appointment with my stylist. I’ve been going to her for years, so I trusted her to work her magic. I showed her the pictures I had saved, and we talked about what would work best for my hair type and face shape. She was super helpful and made me feel confident that we were on the same page.
Then came the actual haircut. This was the most nerve-wracking part, to be honest. I’ve had long hair for as long as I can remember, so chopping it off was a big deal. She started by cutting the back shorter and then gradually worked her way to the front, creating that angled effect we talked about. Seeing all that hair fall to the floor was a bit surreal, but I kept reminding myself that it would grow back.
After the cut, it was time for the fun part – styling! My stylist used a sea salt spray to give my hair that effortless, beachy wave look. She then used a diffuser to enhance the waves without making them look too perfect. I don’t like the messy look, but she told me that the textured bob should always be styled with movement. I watched closely so I could recreate the look at home.
Here’s a breakdown of the steps she took:
- She washed my hair first.
- She combed my hair.
- She began to cut my hair from back to front.
- She started styling after the cut.
- She sprayed my hair with sea salt spray.
- She used a diffuser to dry my hair.
The final touch was a bit of texture spray to add some volume and hold. I was amazed at how different I looked with this new hairstyle. It felt so fresh and modern, and I couldn’t stop running my fingers through my hair.
Maintaining the wavy bob has been surprisingly easy. Most days, I just spritz on some sea salt spray, scrunch my hair a bit, and let it air dry. If I’m feeling fancy, I’ll use a diffuser to enhance the waves. It’s such a low-maintenance style, which is perfect for my busy lifestyle.
Overall, I’m so happy I decided to go for the wavy bob. It was a bit of an adventure, but I love how it turned out. If you’re thinking about getting a wavy bob, I say go for it! Just make sure you find a stylist you trust and communicate exactly what you want. You won’t regret it!
