I had my stylist emulate this haircut yesterday, 25-Mar-2022. After a 3-year hair growth saga, I am overjoyed with happiness with yesterday's French girl bob haircut! I've always dreamed of and aspired to a chin-length bob, and with my thick hair Sam Villa's brilliant "take" on the layered style is youthful, playful, iconic and superbly feminine!

[@fojo59]

I have followed this tutorial three times and cut my own hair. It’s a bit tricky but I took my time. I love the results and have gotten many compliments on my hair. Thank you for your wonderful video!

[@amber3208]

Love this! The other tutorials I’ve found for a French bob just show a very minimally layered blunt bob with bangs. This cut is beautiful!

[@samvillahair]

Think about techniques that minimize the effort to maximize the impact.

[@isabellaboyd2452]

I roughly followed this tutorial on myself. Didn't have a razor so I used cheap texturing shears instead. The sectioning REALLY helps. The final result isn't perfect but my hair has been messed up by stylists so many times that I figured I should just do it myself, and I'm pretty happy with it.

I love how you can wear this two different ways! Great job 👏

[@samvillahair]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@iman.sheikh]

Absolutely loved the freehand organic haircut and the final look , so effortlessly falling into place.... 11:40 almost gave me a mini heart attack however. 😁 Respect to you Sir!

[@samvillahair]

Thank you my friend 👊💜

[@SoulPrints]

This is pure art !! 💯💯

[@susantomes6721]

Beautiful cut. A true hair artist, a joy to watch.

[@samvillahair]

Wow, thank you

[@miriaml.150]

Excellent cut and instruction! I'm going to try this. I love this cut but never knew what to call it. I'm glad you styled it smooth and with a diffuser. I have naturally wavy hair and I suspect my hair would look a lot like the diffused version. I hope so! 🙂

[@certainlysoup508]

Another miriam with my haircut too!

[@Luann_Nielson]

Wow, You are Fantastic! I love the hair cut. Thank you so much for the tutorial!!

[@reemara]

[@estherrojasantezana6848]

Buenas tardes me gusta la explicación, muchas gracias, qué Dios bendiga su vida. A todos del grupo.

[@ameliaclark5792]

Can you have this with fine thinner hair?

[@cis4cookiethatsgoodenough456]

Love the cut! Varietal and clean, sophisticated. Where can I find tools like this?

[@tynia8221]

Wish this covid end... Just need go to hair salon and cut my hair like this.

[@Thekitten_com]

Hello!!! What kind of scissors and blades you used to make this cut? Great job!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🤩

[@valarmathi5361]

Wow super sir

[@silvermont331]

So the rounded Bob is the French one, what’s the A-line Bob is “German or Russian A BL? 🤔

[@samvillahair]

LOL... great question!

[@crafts226]

Hi Sam ! I was wondering how to cut this style without the fringe ? should we do the same way as on top the hair ? 🤔 Thanks a lot anyway for the tutorial. I love it ❤️

[@samvillahair]

Exactly... just leave out the fringe section but do everything the same way :-)

[@SubscribeAR]

Nice👍

[@kittycrazy9630]

Is it possible to réalisé that Bob longer that on the video? The point is that my school ask me for a long hair Bob with frange. Thank you

[@samvillahair]

Absolutely. This will work with no modifications down to shoulder length at least. Just want to increase the length of the layers an equal amount.

[@alexiabarnes5371]

Does anyone think I could do a French bob with very thin hair? I’ve had a bob to my chin before but I was thinking of going shorter and having like curtain framing bangs.

[@samvillahair]

Absolutely you can! Please be sure to see an educated stylist. Please visit the Redken Salon locator for a stylist near you! redken.com/salon-finder

[@noclu3atall251]

Wrong answer

[@carlosofarrill6016]

Horrible, la clienta no podra peinarlo facil, sale muy bien peinada del salin, pero el desastre viene al otro dia

[@yezibei7548]

the untextured version is so ugly
