Is your Bob Haircut Looking Flat? Here's What You're Doing Wrong!

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Thanks for watching Glam Fam! Leave me questions if you have them! If you enjoyed this video, you may find this one super helpful to watch next: **How to use A Blow Dryer Brush for that PERFECT Blowout! kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGbRlIeinK6UoKcsi=_MbosfRXVFdK-pAY

[@hkr3520]

I just wanted to say that I am now a Velcro Roller Aficionado because of you. I have different sizes and they are a GAME CHANGER for my thinning hair! Thank you so much from this grateful Newfie! Have a great day!

[@EnitZee]

I watched that blow dryer brush video and decided to dig up my old blow dryer curler. Game changer! My problem now is that my new no-layer bob is a triangle. I thought with my thinning hair (with visibly wider part line), no layers would help. I’m worried adding layer will just make the ends look thin and whispy 😕

[@GlamGirlGabi]

@@EnitZee This haircut that I have now has some layers and it didn't thin my baseline out too much. If you feel triangular, you likely need layers. It's funny because it's such personal preference. I actually am going back to get my hair blunt and short again (and cut out the layers) because for whatever reason, I feel so much prettier when the base is very heavy and dense.

[@mridulapurohit8440]

Love the tips but can we have the makeup tutorial for this look ?😊you are looking stunning!!

[@EnitZee]

@@GlamGirlGabi Thanks Gabi! To make up for the fullness at the bottom, I’ve been trying to build height at the top. It’s just not the blunt look I’ve seen you and other ladies rocking. You’re doing a huge service for so many women who have thinning hair. Your confidence to show us your real “I woke up like this” self makes me more confident to try your hair and makeup tips. 🤗 Can’t wait to see your new hair!

[@beverlyparrish9846]

It is SO helpful when you do your own hair and talk through the process, along with the rationale! Just watching someone style another person's hair doesn't help me. Your explanations are clear and simple. And duplicatable!

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.

Me too!

[@shantibronowicki9565]

YOU ARE THE BEST My hair is so fine I am tired of flat hair Thank you 🥰🥰🥰

[@sharryjones5200]

Beautiful! I prefer a little fullness without frizz, even for my everyday look. My face just looks better with fuller hair, and the older I get, the more I need the curves in the hair to soften the lines of the face.

[@valeried2941]

Thank you! I am 63 a very young 63 and I have always had trouble staying my hair...I watched this video several times and am AMAZED at the volume and shine in my hair! I hope you read this because this is a game changer for me! Thank you again!

[@krisbetts9186]

I enjoyed this as a 68 yo I had a big rich girl full bob. My old time hairdresser showed me some of these tips. What cracks me up is the young hairdressers don’t ‘get’ the big hair look, so I grab the dryer and do it. Women next to me watch how full and fluffy it is!

[@WSN-o9i]

Yessss! It’s a problem. They always want to dry my hair flat and I walk out looking sad. There needs to be more tutorials by the influencers showing how this is done. Thanks Gabi for your contribution and your hair has never looked better!

[@tammyskomorowski]

Yes! They want to flatten the top and curl the ends under. I feel like I leave looking 20 years older!!! I'm more about lots of volume and a longer front. LOVE this tutuorial.

[@lupechacon-florez7520]

I am 66 here now and yes, I also had the most gorgeous bobs. It was big thing here in New York. I’m glad that they are back. Bobs are so chic and fun.

[@robinkellogg2196]

Am with you, 68 yrs and so glad to see my favorite haircut from my favorite time in life revived like a "new thing"!

[@KarenSchuessler]

@@WSN-o9i Agreed! They say, "Be happy with natural". Well, if I wanted natural I wouldn't be getting it cut in 100 layers. Natural on my diamond head is flat and peaky and unflattering. And my older hair (70) isn't as amenable to what I want as it used to be. This video is awesome! I ordered the crimper and can't wait to try the cut and the style! Thank you!

[@michelebella677]

I always blow dry my hair upside down to give it extra volume too. I have the same cut, thickness, straightness, and level of oil that your hair has. I just found this channel and I’m super happy because I can see what’ll work for my hair.

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Welcome to the channel! I appreciate you!

[@susansullivan6463]

I love this high-volume hairdo much better than a basic bob. It is very glamorous and sophisticated.

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Me Too - I LOVE volume always.

[@WSN-o9i]

Thats exactly how I feel. It softens the face too when you add layers unlike the one length straight bob.

[@nadnoel2390]

I love This high volume but I can’t find on Amazon the waffle iron could you tell me which mark is it Thank you very much

[@sandybitter4609]

The way your hair is cut in the way you have it styled is absolutely stunning!🥰

[@gaila.7224]

Gorgeous! Question: How does all that product hold up after a day or two? I'd be afraid of putting so much at the roots for fear of waking up the next day with greasy, limp hair. I wash my fine, post-menopause hair only twice a week. Would appreciate anyone's experience with these products. Thank you!

[@heyshanny]

I have fine, thin hair and am in love with your old money bob!!! Hair goals for sure!!!

[@NehaBeauty]

I just got my hair cut like an hour ago and I came to YT to learn how to style it like this, THANK YOU! This video is amazing! I also have fine hair, completely straight, no texture, cuticle is completely flat. So I need all these fun tricks! It's soooo glamourous and chic!

[@franbucolo7408]

First things first You look beautiful! Loved this video. I am 69 years old and just got a bob cut for my fine hair this year. Came across a hair dresser who knew his stuff. So I'm going to say if you are not happy with your hair dresser try some other places. It's always easier to tell a new stylist what you want then trying to get change from your stuck in the mud previous stylist. P.s I just want to say I have never gotten so many compliments on my hair! Cut, style and color! People have said it brings out my eyes! Wow didn't even know a hairstyle could do that! Lol 😂 Bottom line, your video helped me 💯 percent step by step on my everyday at home styling! You are a gem! Thank you! ❤

[@ExploringCanadaInfo]

This is what we've been looking for! Thanks Gabi!

[@ewoniukla]

Do you have a video on how your hair was cut ?

[@michelleh5615]

Yes hot rollers!!! I’m the only person I know that uses them 😂 but they’re fast, easy, and give great volume!

[@GlamGirlGabi]

Totally agree!

[@SuzanneK-u4w]

I use the same hot rollers I owned in the 70’s. They still work great!

[@robinsmith4958]

I still have like 2 old sets of hot rollers! I need to crack those babies out!! 😅

[@silviakhan1073]

Glad you mentioned them! It totally turns my wavy tons of volume beautifully. I only do it for especial occasions and my sil says I should do it more often but I do t. Usually let it just dry out naturally. I have used the Conair big curls for years. So good! Get compliments all the time. Love the fact that it doesn’t burn your finger tips as Remington and other new tools! 🎉😂

I love the old money look on you!! ❤❤ I don’t know much about hair products and i have learned so much from you today!!

[@cindystouff]

Beautiful hair!!! So healthy and full-looking! Your instructions with explanations are priceless! My hair is a bit shorter than yours in this video, but I am starting TODAY to grow out to this look! It is amazingly beautiful-elegant but in a casual way (does that make sense?!). Just gorgeous!!!

[@AudreyM-dz2qp]

Great video! I think it’s one of the best hairstyling videos I’ve seen. I love the old money bob. I have naturally wavy hair and I think it would work for me.

[@DanteVelasquez]

Having been born in the early 1970's, it's so funny to hear a style from the 1960s (one of my favorite fashion periods) called the "old money bob" lol I used to love that look, which still appeared in the 70s, and then its resurgence in the 90s, and I love it now. A really easy way to get so much style and glamour from a bob. OMG I love that roller elastic trick. I have that same set and what I would usually do is rotate the handle of the clip down to the scalp, and then add a duckbill clip and secure it but it didn't work perfectly. The elastic is better. Your make-up looks particularly beautiful in this video with that fabulous hair 🙂

[@GlamGirlGabi]

I'm glad I could teach you a new trick! Thanks for watching!

[@cynthiagilbreth1352]

Love this look! I am definitely going for it. Your hair is absolutely gorgeous. Thanks so much. I’m going to try it with Velcro rollers and see how that works.

I just got my EXTREMELY fine/thinning, hair cut into a lob yesterday (just at my shoulders) and I'm going to an event tonight (I hardly EVER go out where I want to be a bit more polished) so this video is right on time for me. Can't wait to see how my hair turns out. Love you so much Gabi. P. S. You always look A-M-A-Z-I-N-G but your makeup in this vid is next-level. I'm 66 so I won't be doing a lot of makeup today (I like being ME but just keeping it simple and doing the best with what I have); but I do adore seeing how everyone does those beautiful eye makeup looks.

[@beckykueng3017]

Your hair looks beautiful and so much volume !! My hair is so pitifully thin now ( a chin length bob) that the crimper would totally show through any thin top layers.

Since then I smile doing my styles thinking I’m ‘confusing my roots’. Thank you for the 🌞

[@LorryMLewis]

LOVE YOUR TRICK WITH THE ELASTIC! I use hair brushes where the handles clip off and leave them in my hair until completely cooled ---and also use similar clips to keep them in place. BUT they always fall like yours did UNTIL you placed the elastic on them! Can't wait to try that trick! (and will also buy these rollers and let you know how they work for me). You're a doll-thanks so much! 😘

I love this! Your hair is always gorgeous! I am glad to see only a couple of products that you put on before blowout..

[@Sooz1234]

Transitioning to this style from my typical bob to get away from that same beach wave or straighter bob style (which doesn't stay in my hair anyway). This styling method stays in my 2A fine hair for 3 days, the time between washes, thanks to a bit of light teasing with a wide tooth comb and spray as required. Cuts the amount of heat styling as well. Time-saving! Great style on you, BTW, but you always look good, darn it! Thank you for the helpful tips.

I wish I could have you come do my hair. I have very fine hair and now that I’m getting a wee bit older, I am seeing the amount of hair that I have decrease as well (very frustrating - AND I use Nioxin daily to try to hold onto my hair). The issue with my hair is that I have zero volume and zero texture in it. My hair is like baby hair: soft, silky and slippery. That sounds amazing….until I try to make it look voluminous. I have mostly switched to a blunt bob (though I like growing it out longer in the summer just to put it in pigtails and ponies to get it off my neck for the hot, humid Ottawa summer weather), but I’ve had to embrace the flat blunt bob otherwise. I can’t get it to stay voluminous for more than about an hour, with luck, and with the best climactic conditions! Volume in the summer? Forget it! Haha!
