Lob Hair Trend | How to Get the Perfect Long Bob
Let’s talk lobs! Although we love some long mermaid locks, we are seriously LUSTING over the lob hair trend! What is a ‘lob’ you might ask? We explain everything you need to know about the style, along with how to perfect it.
Lob Hair Trend
First thing’s first, what is a lob? It’s simply short for a long bob! Generally 3-4 inches longer than your usual bob, the long bob sits anywhere between the collarbones to above the bust. It’s perfect for those who want the chop, without being too drastic.
The lob is also known as the hairstyle that suits literally everyone! We can definitely see why the lob hair trend is here to stay.
In terms of the specific cut, a lob is usually a little shorter at the back and cut to achieve plenty of texture. Not only is it super flattering, it looks awesome styled both sleek and straight, or textured and wavy!
How to Achieve the Perfect Lob
If you’re not going from long to short, it’s important to know how to get your lob on point! Although the lob is super textured, having thin & wispy ends is definitely not ideal. Volume and thickness is KEY to achieve the PERFECT lob!
You can use hair extensions to thicken a bob or a lob. If you thought hair extensions needed to be dramatic or super long, that’s absolutely not true! They can also be amazing for adding volume & thickness to short hair.
Added thickness using ZALA 12 inch tape hair extensions
We absolutely love ZALA’s 12 inch tape hair extensions for achieving an on point lob! 12 inch tape extensions create the ultimate natural finish and are the perfect addition to add some oomph to your natural hair. They’ll thicken up any wispy ends and give an instant volume boost. Yes please!
Once you’ve got your desired thickness, it’s time to style! As a general rule with lobs, if you’re styling your hair in waves, be sure to leave the ends straight. Not only does this look amazing and adds tons of texture, it helps to maintain your length!
What do you think of the lob hair trend? You can get an effortless lob or bob haircut with extensions. Check out our range of 12 inch tapes to achieve your lob goals, or shop the full range of ZALA tape hair extensions HERE.
