If you’ve ever walked out of the salon loving your cut—only to hate it a week later thanks to Seattle’s rainy air—you’re not alone. Hair behaves differently up here, especially if you’ve got fine strands, natural wave, or frizz-prone ends. That’s why picking the right cut matters just as much as the stylist behind the chair. Internal layers (not just face-framing) help manage bulk without sacrificing movement, and cuts that work air-dried can save you a ton of time on drizzly mornings.
And don’t skip a conversation about how your water at home might be messing with your hair—Seattle’s mineral levels can affect everything from color to shine. Ready for a haircut that fits your hair and the city you live in? Let’s find one that works for you, rain or shine.
#1: Curly Bob with Fringe for Medium Texture Hair
This playful curly bob with a tailored fringe beautifully frames the face, ideal for those with a medium texture and oval face shape. Its above-shoulder length offers a youthful look with less maintenance, though the curls do require some regular hydration to keep them bouncy and defined. It’s a great choice if you’re keen on a versatile look that can transition easily from day to night. Remember, while this style reduces styling time, it might need a bit of product, like a curl enhancer, to keep the curls well-formed throughout the day.
#2: Textured Dark Chocolate Bob with Natural Waves
This Textured Dark Chocolate Bob offers a chic, manageable look, ideal for women with medium to thick hair seeking a low-maintenance but stylish haircut.

The darker color is great for adding a touch of elegance without the upkeep of lighter tones, and it tends to complement a range of skin tones.

This haircut frames the face beautifully, drawing attention to the eyes, and it’s also versatile for either a casual or a semi-formal look.
