What Is A French Bob?
A French bob, or a classic Parisian women’s cut, is a form of a cropped bob that’s cut at chin-length and paired with bangs sitting at the brow line. The style may have originated with French actresses in the 1920s who wore their hair in a cropped bob, sometimes with a beret. It has become a universal ambassador of effortless Parisian style. The French haircut has been modernized by certain characteristics including a blunt cut, heavy texture, choppy short bangs and beachy wavy hair.
Thanks to celebrity fashionistas Bella Hadid, Vanessa Hudgens, Karlie Kloss, and Felicity Jones flaunting this Parisian style in recent red carpet events, the world has seen how elegant yet chill this perfect combo of bangs, and short hair is.

Who Should Try A French Bob?
Still, personality isn’t the only thing about the French bob that makes it a timeless standout. It’s a versatile cut that can be customized for most people’s texture and face shape. It tends to work best for those with stick-straight hair, but your stylist can also cut it in such a way that accentuates your natural hair texture with scissors or a razor.
The French bob can look boxy with curlier textures if not done right. So go to someone familiar with working with your natural wave pattern and who’s skilled in using scissors and razors.

How To Style A French Bob?
One of the best things about the French bob is that styling can be a breeze. You can wear it sleek and polished or playfully tousled. If you want a slicked-back look, use some gel throughout your cut. You can also use some texturizing spray to enhance your natural waves.
For daily styling, less is more. Comb through wet hair and let it air dry. If the hair is frizzy, some serum. Always do it on wet hair so it doesn’t weigh the hair down. Use your hands or a large-tooth comb to give bounce, instead of a brush. A combination of mousse and texturizing products will give your French bob lift and bounce. Enjoy your timelessly elegant and beautiful bob!
