How To Get The Trendy Airy Bob That Combines '90s Volume With A Modern Look

Not being able to put your hair up in a ponytail can be a challenge, especially if you love to go on jogs or are just the type of person to like your hair out of your face. For that reason alone, a bob's short length can be a turn-off for some people.

Fortunately, the airy bob gives you the best of both worlds. You get trendy short hair, and you can still put your hair up in a ponytail when it gets unruly. An airy bob is longer than a traditional bob but shorter than a lob, meaning your strands will fall right beneath the chin. So there's another bonus: you'll have plenty of length left to style however you see fit.

Another difference between the airy bob and the traditional bob is how layers work within them. Like stacked bobs, airy bobs look extremely cute with some barely there layers; head stylist Nicholas Hardwick told Glamour he swears by them. "I love adding barely visible layers to give life throughout the cut and encourage root lift and movement," he said.
