Bob hairstyle

To create a fake bob , start by applying a multi-benefit treatment to damp hair to condition it. Afterwards, blow-dry your hair without over-polishing to give it more texture. Part your hair into two sections and create a clean, strong side parting. Finally, make horizontal waves throughout the hair.

Multi-benefit treatment

This treatment will bring multiple benefits to your hair in a single product. It is very comfortable because it does not require rinsing and you can use it regardless of the type of hair you have. You will notice smoother, shinier, more conditioned hair and you will protect it from the heat of irons, dryers and tweezers.

The fake Bob is one of the trendy hairstyles. Ideal for summer nights when you can go out fresh and comfortable regardless of the length of your hair. We tell you how to do it:

Apply a multi-benefit treatment to damp hair to condition it. In this way, you will give your hair shine and manageability, in addition to protecting it from the heat tools that you will use next.
Blow-dry hair without over-polishing to gain more texture.
Part your hair into two sections : front and back, and make a very sharp and clean side parting in the front section.
Mark horizontal waves throughout the hair in the direction of the hairline with a pair of tweezers. You will add volume to the roots without losing the division of the hair that you have done previously.
Gather the hair from the back section into a ponytail and tie it together with one of the sides of the front section. Once the two sections are attached, tuck the ponytail inward to simulate the false bob and secure with bobby pins.
Place the other front section of hair as bangs in the way that suits you best. Add texture to your hair with a dry styling spray.
To finish, set and define the wave of the false bob and the bangs by applying an instant finishing spray.

It is easier than you think. This hairstyle is very fashionable to be the perfect guest at a wedding or some important event this summer. Test it!

Step by step makeup

In summer we like to put on makeup in a very natural way, practically imperceptible. Summer nights are ideal to shine with a simple and impressive look. Take note of these tips:

Apply a powerful mascara to achieve extreme volume and length on the lashes. We are looking for a dramatic effect, with strong but natural lashes.
Apply your primer, foundation or CC Cream for flawless skin. Next, define and highlight your features with a smooth contouring. With an illuminator, lightly highlight the upper part of the cheekbone for a glow effect .
Apply your favorite red lipstick to the lips . It's a safe bet, as an orange-red looks good on everyone.
