About Chic Bobs, Lobs & Short Hair
When we decide on a bob or lob, I always look at your hair's natural texture first. If your hair is wavy or fine, I will suggest specific layering techniques to add volume without needing constant styling. You won't walk out with a cut that demands an hour of blow-drying every morning; I build styles that look great even when you just wash and go.
Finding Your Perfect Short Style
A great short haircut isn't just about length; it's about how it frames your face and fits into your daily routine. In my salon at Nepean Sea Road, I don't believe in one-size-fits-all. When you come in for a consultation, we will talk about your hair's history—any past chemical treatments—and your willingness to style it.
- The Inverted Bob: This is my go-to for a sharp, modern silhouette. It is shorter in the back and longer in the front, creating a geometric line that stays tidy all day.
- The Textured Lob (Long Bob): If you are nervous about going too short, the lob is the perfect entry point. It sits nicely at the collarbone and offers enough length to tie back on those humid Mumbai days.
- The Pixie: For those ready for a full transformation, a pixie is incredibly freeing. It is the ultimate low-maintenance look, but we will customize the fringe and crown volume to soften your features.
Maintenance and Care
Most clients ask if they will need to visit every two weeks. A well-cut bob or lob grows out beautifully, typically needing a trim every 6 to 8 weeks to maintain the shape. We use professional-grade scissors and thinning techniques to remove weight, ensuring your hair doesn't get bulky as it grows. If you have chemically treated hair, like previous smoothening or botox treatments, I will adapt the cut to ensure your ends stay healthy and sleek.
