Retro Hollywood Faux Bob

16

Want to surprise everyone at prom with a dramatic hair transformation without actually cutting your long locks? The retro Hollywood faux bob is the ultimate styling trick. This creative hairstyle tucks your long hair underneath itself to create the illusion of a chic, vintage-inspired bob. It is a stunningly glamorous look that exudes 1920s jazz-age sophistication, making it the perfect match for beaded gowns, fringe details, and vintage-inspired makeup.

To achieve this clever look, start by curling your hair with a medium-barrel curling iron to create a wavy texture. Next, tie your hair into a loose, low ponytail using a clear elastic, sliding the elastic down toward the ends of your hair. Roll the ponytail upward and inward toward the nape of your neck, tucking the length of your hair underneath. Secure the rolled hair firmly against your scalp using plenty of bobby pins. Gently pull a few waves forward to frame your face, and finish with a strong-hold hairspray to keep your faux bob secure all night.
