Bob hairstyles are now available in all lengths and variations, what’s new to come: of course, the grunge bob! Here we reveal why this hairstyle has absolute trend potential and is made for many hair types.
What is the Grunge Bob?
While we have marveled at the clear, straight edge of the bob for years, sometimes ending above and sometimes below the jawline, in 2024 flowing layers are conquering the short haircut. Similar to what we already know from the shag cut, here either through steps or with the help of the Thinning scissors cut the hair to different lengths. The edge of the bob now appears softer and has a rocky, wild touch. A stylish addition to the grunge bob are slightly hinted curtain bangs, which we will wear in the middle parting in 2024.

Models at the Chanel show and Gucci show show how versatile the new look is and that it can be worn in different lengths and shapes. Attention: The hair shouldn’t be too long, then it would be more likely to be called a shag cut.

What hair types is the grunge bob suitable for?
The good thing about the new bob hairstyle is that the grunge cut is suitable for almost every hair structure. The hairstyle requires little styling, especially for wavy to curly hair. Thick hair can go through the Thinning scissors can be thinned out so that here too cut falls beautifully. For thin, straight hair, the light layers provide more volume, but when styling you should make sure to add some bounce, otherwise the fringed style will be lost.
How to style the grunge bob?
If you want to avoid complex styling with your hairstyle, you will love the grunge bob. The “out of bed” look is taken seriously here, less perfection is more here. The top hair can be frizzy and wild if the hair underneath is laid out in light waves. The quickest way to create this look is to curl individual strands with a straightening iron, not for too long, but in quick, short movements. This is how natural beach waves are created. If you wear a longer grunge bob, a mermaid curling iron with three rods is also recommended. A little hairspray at the end and knead the hair a little more and the stylish trendy hairstyle is ready.
