Do you want to change your look for the start of the school year and take the opportunity to cut ends and lengths damaged by the sun, sand, sea water or even chlorine from the swimming pool? You can opt for a square. This is a timeless cut that suits everyone and is more trendy than ever. You can choose the length! If you are cautious about the idea of carrying out a major hair transformation, you can choose to make a long square below the shoulders at the level of the collarbones. It is also possible to ask for a mid-length bob, with ends that touch the shoulders, or to choose a shorter cut.
The shapes of square cuts continue to evolve. In 2022, we wore it straight to give the impression of thickness right down to the tips. Many are those who have also chosen to wear the “Liquid bob” style bob, a bob with very smooth lengths for an ultra glamorous shine effect.
The Butterfly bob: the most trendy bob of the moment
For this fall 2023, the most fashionable bob is and will remain the “Butterfly Bob”. This term might mean something to you: the Butterfly cut is originally a very layered haircut on fairly long hair. This exaggerated gradient comes in particular from the trends of the 90s-2000s, which gives a nice movement in the hair and a dimensional effect. It is particularly reminiscent of the Rachel haircut, a cut inspired by the hair look of Rachel Green, a character played by Jennifer Aniston in the television series Friends.
But here, the Butterfly bob is mixed with a bob! It skims the shoulders and its lengths are very degraded, particularly at the front, with a fringe curtain effect Mcdonald’s bangand locks that nicely frame the face. It is worn with a parting slightly in the middle or on the side. “A Butterfly bob is more layered and has much more texture than the previously popular blunt bob” deciphers Ryan Austin, hairdresser, to Bustle media.
How to style your Butterfly bob cut for maximum volume?
Its advantage? Thanks to its slightly messy layered effect, the Butterfly haircut allows you to gain volume. It is therefore the ideal haircut for those who tend to have fine hair that is a little too flat for their taste. To help achieve that ultra glamorous volume effect, you can first use a volumizing spray at the roots when your hair is clean and still wet. You can then blow-dry with a blower brush and finish with the application of curlers which will allow you to gain volume and fix the movement for as long as possible. A cloud of hairspray, and that’s it.
