Forget the Trends—This Classic, Low-Maintenance Bob Hairstyle Will Forever Be In

I know what you're thinking—not another bob trend to get on board with, surely? Don't worry though, as this isn't really a trend, but more of an effortless hairstyle that all the chicest people seem to sport. That's right, I'm talking about the wavy bob. Now you know I love nothing more than big, bouncy curls, however, after looking at various wavy bob hairstyles on Instagram, I've grown very fond of this more relaxed, laid-back style. Not only is it easy to re-create, but it gives that perfect "I woke up like this" finish to the hair that I've tried desperately hard to master over the years.

Products You Need for a Wavy Bob:

Hershesons has created the perfect tool to get the wavy bob hairstyle, and the rolling barrel technology makes it quick and easy to use.

This lightweight mist from Ouai helps to enhance waves.

For that beachy look, try adding some salt spray.

This product is great for those of you with naturally curly or wavy hair. It helps to boost volume and add bounce.

Another great product to enhance natural movement is this hydrating spray from Curlsmith.

This tool is also an amazing option for waving your hair, and the ionic ceramic barrels will help minimise damage.

If I don't want to use heat, I simply plait my hair at night and secure in place with these silk scrunchies. The next morning I'm left with perfectly tousled waves.
