27 Feb Tutorial: Create the Illusion of a Loose Bob for Long Hair
Who says you can’t experiment with a short style if you have long hair? With this tutorial, we’ll show you how to achieve a sleek, loose faux bob that will wow at your next party.
Steps to Create a Fake Bob
Wash your hair
Start with clean hair for better shape and longer-lasting results.
Divide into two sections
Create a part at the crown of your head using a rat-tail comb, securing that section with a clip.
Make a low ponytail
Gather the remaining hair into a low ponytail, keeping it tight at the nape of your neck.
Create a loose bun
Fold the ponytail inward and secure it with large bobby pins. This trick will give the appearance of shorter hair.
Shape the bob
Release the top section, comb it, and arrange it to cover the base of the bun, adjusting the volume to your liking.
Curl the ends
Use a curling iron to create curls, adding texture and movement. Apply hair oil for a shiny finish.
Finish with hairspray
Set the style with hairspray to maintain volume and structure.
And you’re done! Enjoy your new look and impress with this short-hair illusion, no scissors needed.
