- 1). Wear a bob style. The basic bob requires the hair to be cut uniformly with the ends between the chin and the shoulders. If your hair is very thick, cut a heavy bang to go with the look, if desired. If your hair is thin, a "swoop" bang is more appropriate. Fashion an angle-bob with the hair shorter in the bang and becoming longer in the front. Cut one side slightly shorter than the other. Maintain your bob by blow-drying it and using a flat iron.
- 2). Wear your hair slightly flipped, similar to the hairstyle of the 1950s. Smooth the hair from the roots, using a flat iron. Flip the ends slightly to obtain a windswept look, using a small curling iron. This look works well on hair that is layered.
- 3). Put soft curls in your hair and add volume, using hot rollers. Heat your medium-sized hot rollers and roll 2-inch sections of hair around each roller. Secure the rollers with the pins that come with them. Remove the rollers once they have cooled. Spray the curls lightly with a holding spray. Alternatively, pin up the curls so they pile on top of the head with soft tendrils hanging down around the face.
- 4). Wear your hair naturally curly. Wash, condition and moisturize your hair, then let it air-dry. Avoid touching it too much as naturally coarse hair can easily become frizzy. Add a holding gel after moisturizing your hair, if desired. Elongate the curls a bit by grabbing small sections of your hair and pulling so the curls are stretched. Blow-dry the root area using a concentrator attachment and straighten it slightly to cause the hair to look longer.
