Cheek-Length Bob with Sweeping Fringe

As I stated before in a previous article written about this hairstyle, I’m feeling the side fringe and this cut. Not only is this style easy to create, it’s also extremely low maintenance. Have fun recreating this look by following the steps below.


Cheek-Length Bob with Sweeping Fringe


How to Style:
  1. Clean, condition and dry hair.
  2. Flatten hair completely straight and smooth using a 2-3 inch flat iron. Flat iron should be set at 400-450 degrees.
  3. Using a fishtail comb, part hair into two sections, starting from one ear and ending at the other ear. Use hairclips to keep both sections (top & bottom) of hair separated.
  4. Apply number 33 (color) 6-8 inch clip-in hair extensions below the part line — hair extensions should be clipped into place, starting from one ear and ending at the other. Hair extensions can also be sewn-in by a professional weave specialist. 3-5 layers of hair extensions should be added for accurate balance and fullness.
  5. Combine hair extensions and natural hair together by brushing hair with a hard Boar Bristle Brush — be sure to keep the part line in place.
  6. Comb a medium-sized portion of the hair located at the top of the head, forward to the front of the head, and then sideways (covering one side of the forehead) — this will create a side-swept bang/fringe effect. This portion of hair will now be referred to as a fringe.
  7. Using a 3-inch flat iron, bump the ends of the hair extensions by fastening the flat iron to the end of hair (extensions) and turning the flat iron inwards, then unfastening and releasing hair — don’t touch the fringe area.
  8. Using a flat iron, curl the ends of the hair located at the front of the head (known as the fringe) downward, then use a wide tooth comb to sweep the bangs to one side of the forehead.
  9. Spray with oil sheen and/or finishing spray to complete look.
