How to ask your stylist for this style
Ask for a "sharp, jawline-length bob" and request a "Hydro Bob or wet-look styling." Be sure to specify that you want "two small tendrils left out" at the front.
Tools:
Choosing Products
A strong-hold gel; a light hair oil to define the tendrils; sulfate-free shampoo for the color.
Step by step instructions to achieve style at home
Apply a strong-hold gel through all your damp hair, except for two very small sections at your front hairline.
Comb the main hair back, then use your fingers to define the two tendrils.
Caring for your hair
This is a temporary, styled look.
The jawline bob requires a trim every 4-6 weeks to keep its sharp line. The color is low-maintenance.
