The Easy and Very Chic Way Fashionable People Are Styling Their Bobs for Autumn
Another day, another bob hair trend that has me debating whether to finally get the chop. I wasn't sure if this popular hairstyle was still going to be trending this autumn, but it seems as if the bob is here to stay, and I for one am not mad about it.
Although they are already plenty of bob hairstyles out there for you to take inspiration from, I want to talk a little bit about the "tucked bob". What is this new bob trend, I hear you ask? Coined by hair stylist and hair trend expert, Tom Smith, the tucked bob has been spotted on the likes of Lily Collins, Gigi Hadid, America Ferrera and Hailey Bieber (just to name a few). If you ask me, it might just be one of the chicest short hairstyles to try this season, and will elevate your look in seconds. Intrigued? I thought so. Keep on scrolling for everything you need to know...
What Is a Tucked Bob?
After listening in on an autumn hair trends talk with Smith himself, I've learnt everything there is to know about the tucked bob. As described by Smith, "[the tucked bob is] a bob haircut that is either one length or lightly layered, secured behind one or both ears." As you can probably tell, this style is so easy to achieve, and can work on all lengths and styles of bob.
In terms of styling, Smith advises trying the trend on hair that has a bit of product in it. "Freshly washed or fluffy hair can be hard to secure behind the ear," he explains. "Use a volume spray or mousse before blow-drying for extra style support and use a strong hold hairspray on the hair around the ear to secure." If you want a more stable result, you can even use a small clip behind the ear to hold the hair in place.
