Try these elegant hairstyles for short hair
1. Blowout bob
This hairstyle makes your hair look full and bouncy. Simply remove the nozzle from your blow dryer to help boost your hair’s volume. Then, blow dry near the roots first to create body. Wrap small sections of hair around a round brush and blow dry while rolling the brush in and out. This method will create soft waves. If you want your waves to be more defined, you can use a curling iron with a medium-size barrel to curl sections of your hair one at a time.
Editor’s tip: Spray TONI&GUY Sky High Volume Dry Shampoo to your hair before blow drying to help enhance texture and give your hair additional volume.
2. Straight, blunt bob
There’s never a bad time to showcase sleek, straight locks, no matter your haircut. A blunt, chin-length bob can look elegant on its own. Just make sure it’s free from frizz and fly aways by finishing your styling with a drop of hair serum. On days when your hair is misbehaving, you may straighten it using a flat iron.
