The 90s Bouncy Bob Is The Back To School Haircut You Need
The much-loathed heatwave is finally over and darker mornings and crunchy leaves signal autumn is well and truly on its way.
As well as pumpkin spiced lattes and Halloween costume planning, with a new season comes the opportunity to get your 'back-to-school' haircut sorted. You know, that fresh new look that switches gears for the season ahead and makes you feel that bit more productive?
We've already told you about all the major autumn haircuts that look set to be major for this season (lash-skimming fringes, soft layers and slinky bobs are all on the menu), but if you feel overwhelmed by the choice and want to plump for the one back-to-school haircut for autumn, we've got you.
Issey Cook, our go-to hair stylist at Larry King, has declared the ‘90s bouncy bob’ as the one haircut you should opt for if you're seeking ‘back-to-school’ energy. “One haircut we will be seeing a lot of is a kind of 90s bouncy bob - something that’s fun, cool and has movement but is super easy to style," she told us.
Issey says the cut works for everyone - from those with fine and thick hair to those with curly hair too. “It looks expensive and chic, and with a few styling hacks, you can take it from cool girl vibes to a mature blown-out look.”
Issey adds: “The length can vary and that’s something you and your stylist should discuss depending on wether you want to be able to tie it up or let it be. You can also make it your own by adding more layers or keep it blunt but shaggy for finer hair. You can use some hair mist to scrunch in and add texture, or use a round brush to create volume, body and shine. A dry hair spray or dry shampoo is great for this cut, as well as some Social Life For Your Hair Cream to define the ends and smooth over flyaways.”
Supermodel-mania is in full swing and ‘90s beauty has been building momentum all on its own over on social media as a whole new generation has tapped into the references our mum’s grew up with. Apple TV has also released a documentary – aptly named The Super Models – following the lives and careers of the original supers, Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington to give us some major throwback inspo.
Pair your 90s bouncy bob with your new trench coat, chunky knit and winter boots and you're good to go.
