A long blunt bob is a one-length style that typically falls right at the shoulders or collarbone. It looks fabulous on any woman, and with the right cut, it can enhance and highlight facial features. What makes the blunt lob style particularly great is its versatility, as well.
Depending on the natural hair type and your preferred look, this lob may occasionally require additional styling. According to Wisconsin-based stylist Maggie Banks, “A common misconception is that short hair means less styling is needed, and that isn’t always the case!”
A key question for the stylist is: What styling products and routines should I use?
“I suggest blow drying or air drying the hair with a product that has a holding element,” Banks explains. “This will assist the style in staying intact throughout the day, reduce frizz, and simplify restyling for the following day. Something like a sea salt spray air-dried or even a gel that is blow-dried and brushed through works wonderfully.”
A shoulder-length blunt lob haircut like this tends to flip out. When that occurs, utilize a blow dryer and hot tools. Remember to use a heat protector and keep your hot tools at a lower temperature as well.
Before getting a chop, don’t forget to ask your stylist, “How frequently do I need to return for maintenance on this cut?”
Banks indicates that a trim every 6-8 weeks is crucial to maintain a long blunt bob. However, since it grows out nicely, and if you’re comfortable with a longer length, feel free to extend the time between appointments a little.
Be daring and emulate Chrissy Teigen, Kim Kardashian, or Katy Perry’s blunt lob look.
