The upbeat, elegant flipped bob in 50s style: simply styled and loved by stars

If there's one hairstyle that will never go out of style, it's probably the bob. Not only because it is so stylish and chic, but also because of its ease of care, adaptability and changeability. There are long and short cuts, the chunky and butterfly bob, but also variants like the bubble and now also the flipped bob. What does he look like and who does the haircut suit?

Just like the classic, but with a certain swing, elegant and with pep - that actually describes the cut quite well. No wonder stars are already falling for him!

The stylish flipped bob in any length

The length can vary with this hairstyle. You can choose both the short cut, like the classic bob, or a slightly longer version or even thatLong Bob (Lob). Because what matters is actually how you style the hairstyle:

The hair falls smoothly down and ends in a straight cut. But the special thing is that the tips are styled outwards. You may know this so-called “flipping”, where the name comes from, from the 50s and 60s.

Who does the haircut actually suit?

You can probably already guess: the flipped bob, like the classic, suits everyone. Certain facial features can be balanced out by its versatility (with the right length), so that the cut can be perfectly adjusted. You can also add bangs, which is very beneficial even as you get older because it hides forehead wrinkles.

The flipped bob is really easy to style

You can also wear this bob in everyday life in the form of a classic, smooth bob and only style it into a flipped bob when you feel like it or have a suitable occasion. How do you do that?

  • Ideally, styling begins with the hair still damp.
  • Blow dry this smooth with a round brush. You can already blow-dry the tips outwards.
  • You decide how pronounced you want to make the curve. It can be subtle, but it can also be more noticeable, which you can influence with the help of the size of the round brush.
  • If that doesn't work, you can also use a straightening iron at the end. Even if your hair is already dry and you want to spontaneously style a flipped bob, the straightening iron comes to the rescue.
  • If necessary, fix the hair with hairspray.

Vary the cut as you wish!

A smooth and equal-length base is common for the flipped bob, but that doesn't mean you can't customize it to suit your preferences. Your hair, your rules!

It is also possible to have a few steps that you can also “flip” outwards, creating a specialupbeat and cheeky lookarises. The layers can be distributed over the entire head and in any quantity (depending on the thickness of the hair), or they can be concentrated only on the front strands.

You can enhance the retro effect by styling it particularly energetically. This also makes the look look even more elegant and suitable even for a special occasion or when you are going out.
