Blow drying a bob haircut can be an easy and quick way to achieve a sleek and polished look. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to blow dry a bob haircut:
What you’ll need:
- Blow dryer
- Round brush
- Clips
- Heat protectant spray or serum
- Hair oil or serum
- Hairspray (optional)
Step 1: Prep your hair
Start by washing your hair with shampoo and conditioner. Towel dry your hair until it’s damp, but not dripping wet. Apply a heat protectant spray or serum to your hair to protect it from the heat of the blow dryer. Work the product through your hair from roots to ends.
Step 2: Section your hair
Using your clips, section your hair into manageable sections. Start at the nape of your neck and work your way up. Clip the top layers of your hair out of the way, leaving the bottom layer free.
Step 3: Blow dry the back
Using your round brush, start blow drying the back of your head. Hold the blow dryer about 6 inches away from your hair and aim it downward. Use the round brush to pull the hair taut and direct the air flow down the length of the hair. Continue this process until the section is dry.
Step 4: Move to the sides
Release the clipped top sections and move on to one side of your head. Take a small section of hair and use the round brush to lift the hair away from your head. Point the blow dryer down the length of the hair and dry the hair, working from the roots to the ends. Repeat this process with each section on that side of your head.
Step 5: Finish the other side
Once you’ve finished blow drying one side, move on to the other side of your head and repeat the process.
Step 6: Style your hair
Once your hair is completely dry, apply a hair oil or serum to the ends of your hair to add shine and reduce frizz. You can also use hairspray to hold the style in place.
And there you have it – a step-by-step guide on how to blow dry a bob haircut. With a little practice and the right tools, you can achieve a sleek and polished look at home.
