A collarbone length cut almost always guarantees that you will be able to get your hair all the way up, but a good trick your hairstylist can do is “take the front of your hair and bring it back to where you typically do your ponytail,” says Duenas. Have no fear, you can still wear your hair up in your favorite “That Girl” hairstyle (a slicked-back bun or ponytail) if you choose to cut your hair into a long bob. Once my hair dried and curled up, it was not cute.Ī post shared by Lea Michele Keep it longer to be able to wear your hair up Whatever you do, just don’t be like 10-year-old me who went to the closest salon next to the grocery store, didn’t tell the stylists I had curly hair, and ended up with a haircut that my family still laughs about. With that said, Gamez recommends cutting looser curls when they are wet and the Curl Cutting Technique for really tight curls. Virginia Gamez, a stylist at Rita Hazan, says that different curl textures “are not one size fits all.” Depending on how tight your curls are, they will bounce up and totally change the style once your hair is dry. If you have any sort of natural curl texture, talk with your stylist about it before they start cutting to make sure they understand it. And no, this is not the kind of haircut I would recommend maintaining with a pandemic trim-it-yourself situation. So if you’re the kind of person who really doesn’t like sitting in a salon chair (*raises hand*), maybe a long bob cut isn’t the right move for you based on the required maintenance alone. If you go too far beyond that, “you can easily tell if the bob is not clean” according to Duenas. In order to maintain the precision cut that a long bob requires, you need to make sure that your stylist has room in their schedule for you about every six weeks. Face-framing layers and fringe are also recommended for those with round and heart-shaped faces.Ī post shared by Khloé Kardashian Maintain regular salon appointments If you have a long face and you still would like to have a long bob, it is very important to add some face-framing layers or pieces around your cheekbones to bring them back out.” The best way to do this, according to Duenas, is with long curtain fringe. For example, Michael Duenas, a celebrity hairstylist and the founder of Veluer Creative, says “if you have a long oval face shape and you do a long bob, it will accentuate the length of your face. Stylists agree that everyone can pull off a long bob as long as it is cut right for their face shape. Everyone can pull it off-if it’s done right But before you do, I urge you to hear what a few celebrity stylists have to say about it:ġ. It has always been a popular style because of its just right (not too short and not too long) length which makes girls everywhere want to make the chop. This year, the long bob is trending thanks to celebrities like Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Zendaya, Selena Gomez, Lea Michele, and more. I love them both dearly, but I’m only talking to the experts about haircuts from now on. They always respond with “Try it! It’ll grow back,” and as you can imagine, that has not been helpful in my decision-making process. Anytime I’ve considered cutting my hair (beyond a standard trim), I have sent countless inspo pics to my mom and sister hoping for feedback on whether or not they think it’s a good idea for me.
