Have you ever wondered in front of the mirror why your hair is so flat and lifeless around your face? You are certainly not alone. Because all of us who haven't been blessed with gorgeous curls have experienced it. Even if you wear a bob that is supposed to add an extra amount of volume to your hair, you can find yourself in this situation. Luckily, there is a super simple hack that makes hair look fuller and voluminous, regardless of its structure. The so-called rolled bob doesn't require cutting or layering the hair, but it does provide that extra volume kick that every one of us needs. In the article we reveal what the styling technique is all about and how you can master it at home!
What is the Rolled Bob?
If you see new and more extravagant names in your feed every day, often leading to the same bob hairstyle, then you may be wondering what different the rolled bob could offer. However, this is not about a “new” haircut, but rather a method for styling the classic hairstyle.
Aside from that, the hairstyle trend works for most bob variations. An exception are the very short cuts that end at the ears or even higher, because the styling technique requires a certain length. Medium length and are optimallong bob variations like lobs, but you can also try the styling trick with chin length.
This bob combines mega volume with a sleek, glamorous finish that we totally agree with. It's a mix of all the styles that are all the rage lately: the classic blowout blow-dry, the '70s Farrah Fawcett hairstyle, theModern Variation of the “Rachel-Cut”and of course the classic blunt bob. The styling technique is great for fine hair and makes it look much thicker.
Styling a rolled bob: With these tips and tools it works
With the right technique, anyone can style a rolled bob at home and add volume to their hair in no time.
If you want to spice up your hair without losing centimeters, the professionals will also advise you to play with the styling instead of playing with the length. This works well even on short hair if you have the right tools. So what do you need to style a rolled bob? There are two variants.
Create volume with a curling brush
As always, the most important thing is finding the right tool for the job. In this case, that means you need to break out your electric hairbrush because it does the heavy lifting of styling and gets the hair into the desired shape quickly and easily. A volume styler or curling brush is ideal for this, but you can also achieve a similar effect with a straightening brush.
This is how it works:
- Wash hair as usual and pat dry.
- Pull the parting (ideally a side part) and massage some mousse or a volume product into the hair.
- Apply heat protection and blow dry your hair until about 20 percent moisture remains.
- Then start separating individual strands and blow-drying them with a curling brush. Blow-dry the lower sections of hair downwards normally and blow-dry the top hair upwards towards the ceiling. This creates the most volume. Roll the ends of your hair either inwards or outwards - depending on which look you prefer.
- Then turn on the cold setting to keep the hair in shape.
- If necessary and for extra hold, fix the rolled bob with hairspray.

Style your hair classically with a hairdryer and round brush
If you don't have a blow dryer brush, you don't have to order one right away. With a little more effort, but you can also use a hairdryer and a round brush to achieve the same result. Follow the instructions above by brushing the strands of hair with one hand and blow-drying from a distance with the other.
The most beautiful ideas for the rolled bob
The rolled bob is a versatile styling option for the classic cut. This hairstyle works wonderfully with a blunt bob because the uniform length of the hair allows you to keep the swing even and blow-dry it into a perfect shape. But a great effect can also be achieved with slightly layered hair.

Long bangs can also complement the rolled bob well, as long as you integrate them into the styling. The bangs must be long enough to be styled with a curling brush.
Rolled under
When it comes to the styling technique, you can decide whether to blow-dry your hair inwards or outwards.
Rolled over
However, it is not “either or”. You can easily wrap some of the strands inwards and some – downwards. Play with the hair to get the effect you like most.
Create a natural look for your hair
The great thing about trying this styling technique is that you don't have to commit. Instead, styling can change the entire mood of your looks until you wash out and restyle the hair. However, we would happily wear this hairstyle again and again.
