Among the short haircuts, bobs are super in these days. We’ve been seeing a lot of celebrities chopping inches of their long locks and going for chin-length or medium bobs. And with this haircut, you get the perks of having short hair but still with enough flexibility to explore different hairstyles. Today, we’re going to show you how to style a sleek center part bob for days when you want to look simple but chic.
How to Style a Center Part Bob
Prep your hair
When you wash your hair, use shampoo and conditioner that can help make your hair sleeker and straighter. TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Shampoo and TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Conditioner are perfect for this. They help control frizz so you get smoother and more manageable hair that’s ready for any hairstyle.
Apply hair serum
Put a drop of TONI&GUY High Shine Serum Drops on your palm, rub your palms together, and apply the product on your hair. This will add shine to your hair. You can also finger comb your hair to remove tangles, and with hair serum, it will be easier for you to do this.
Protect from heat
Spritz TRESemmé Keratin Smooth Flat Iron Smoothing Spray on your hair to protect it from heated styling tools. The spray will also help keep frizz at bay so you’ll have smoother hair after styling.
Divide and clip
Divide your hair into two horizontal sections. Clip the upper section as though you’re making a half updo. This way, you can focus on working on the lower section of your hair first.
Start ironing
Using a flat iron, straighten the unclipped part of your hair one small section at a time. Iron from your roots up to the tips of your hair. When you’re done with the lower section, remove your clip and iron the top part of your hair. Again, straighten your hair one small section at a time.
Find your center
Using the tip of your tail comb, create a straight and neat center part. You may iron the tips of your hair again to make sure that they are sleek and straight. Then, comb your hair to smoothen it out and create a sleek finish.
You're done!
Now, say hello to your sleek and straight center part bob. This works best on making a blunt bob pin-straight and smooth, but it can also work just as well on layered or inverted bobs.
