It's This Exact Bob Style That I Think Looks Most Expensive

Another day, another bob hairstyle to fall in love with. I know I might say this a lot, but I think the A-line bob could be my new favourite iteration of the classic short haircut. It’s chic, it’s expensive-looking, and most importantly, it works for every single hair type.

So, what is the A-line bob? If you’re not yet clued up on this stylish cut, not to fear, as I’ve spoken to the experts to find out everything there is to know. If you’re wondering whether to get the chop this autumn, then I highly advise that you keep on scrolling…

According to Ondine Cowley, Artistic Director of Gielly Green, an “A-line bob is usually anything above the shoulder. It’s very blunt and precisely cut but you can put an invisible layer throughout so it won’t show choppiness and will sit in a precise elegant fashion. It can also be done with a fringe.”

Cowley says that to achieve this haircut on clients, she does a wet cut on the outline and then rough dries the hair and dry cuts the ends. “I add a graduation so it is solid-looking but flows.”

This graduation is often done so that the bob sits slightly shorter at the back, and gets a little bit longer near the front of the face. However, unlike the stacked bob, it does not often involve layers. 

“This style can be worn curly, straight, half up and half down,” says Cowley. “It’s very versatile and I would definitely recommend it as we go into autumn.”

It’s worth noting that Cowley says that this haircut doesn’t have a one size fits all approach, so make sure to speak to your hairdresser to see how you can make it work for you.

“If you have curly hair, you might want to wear it natural or dry it with a diffuser,” explains Cowley. “If you have straight hair, rough dry and go or loosely tong the hair, but make sure to leave the ends out. In my opinion, this haircut works well with a natural vibe.”

However, if you do want to wear the bob sleek and straight, run a hair straightener through the hair and finish with some shine spray for a glossy finish.

This bob has beautifully blunt ends, making it look ultra chic.

You can add face-framing highlights to your A-line bob for extra dimension.

I love how Ciara has curled the ends of her A-line bob inwards for a stylish finish.

Don’t be afraid to have fun with your bob. This Barbie-pink hair colour is so cute.

See? Told you this haircut looked expensive.

For a bit of glamour, add some tight curls to your bob.

Voluminous curls work perfectly with this haircut. 

If Hailey is doing it, I’m doing it.

As Cowley mentioned above, a diffuser is great for those of you with curly hair, to help enhance your natural style. 

If you don’t have curly hair but you want to add some movement, you can’t go wrong with a Babyliss curling tong.

To keep your A-line bob looking as healthy as possible, apply a leave-in conditioner throughout your ends. My favourite is this one from Gisou.
