Comments:

PINNED BACK SHORT BOB: This fun style has a lot of volume and is smooth! The long side swept bangs make it look more polished, and the fun short layering in back helps add to the lift. Overall, a fun flirty style!

Suitable for:

Face shapes: oval, square, round, heart, diamond

Hair texture: fine, medium or coarse

Hair density: thin, average to thick

Styling:

Maintenance: medium

Time: 10-15 minutes

Techniques: Blow dry and flat iron

Products: volumizing mousse for fine or medium hair, smoothing gel for coarse hair, root lift, Slick Works by Paul Mitchell, finishing hairspray, Gloss Drops by Paul Mitchell

Styling Steps:

1. Apply mousse or gel according to hair type.
2. Part hair diagonally above the arch in the right eyebrow.
3. Spray a small amount of root lift in the crown area.
4. Following the instructions on the label, apply a small amount of Slick Works from the middle through ends of hair, then brush product through.
5. Blow dry hair almost completely.
6. Using a large round brush, finish blow drying the hair to add volume in the roots. Wrap the hair around the brush and blow hot air away from scalp. Slide the brush straight off the ends and use cool air from your blow dryer to smooth the hair at the same time.
7. Use a flat iron if needed to straighten hair that has any wave or curl to it, pulling the flat iron straight off the ends. Don’t take the flat iron all the way to the scalp or it will flatten your lift in the roots.
8. Tease the hair in the crown area from underneath to add more volume, then smooth over the top.
9. Take random pieces from the sides and pin them underneath towards the back.
10. Use a small amount of finishing hairspray on the completed style and add just a little bit of Gloss Drops to the ends for shine.
