Riding the Waves

Riding the Waves

In the fashion scene, we’re used to trends having a short shelf life. They change, they disappear – and when they re-emerge, they get a new lease on life thanks to a surprising twist or turn.

So sue us, we love the bob haircut. It’s both amazing and inspiring to see how it remains timeless through the different interpretations and takes on it. Different lengths, different nuances. The hairstyle literally reinvents itself.

And just when it seemed like it couldn’t surprise us again – it managed it again. Ladies and… ladies: please welcome the creased version. Yes, it’s the wavy bob!

Even starlets we’re used to see with wavy long locks were charmed by the young, sophisticated haircut. It helps them bring more personality into their often photographed errands and of course, the red carpet.

But rather than the classic, expected bob, they lately prefer the young and somewhat cheeky version: The wavy bob.

For busy ladies who aren’t in love with wasting their time on salon visits and waiting with hot rollers in their hair, the creasy do turns the con into a pro – with a result of looking more “it” than ever.

Just let the hair dry naturally and crease it intentionally by hand. Et voila.

How ironic that the most effortless looks get the most compliments? And wait a minute – there is some effort involved (see bellow) but not too much…

Even when you do conform to the straight, sleeked back look – try to dare a little and leave the edges be… naughty, dry and not exactly in place.

And for the crowning glory – a winning trend combination of a soft wavy bob and ice blonde hair.

The rule? There are no rules. Any length, any direction, wavier, curlier – it all works.
