Can thick curly hair be cut into a bob?

I really want my hair cut into somthing other than the hairstyle I have now because I've had it for atleast 2 years and it's getting really boring, but theres nothing much I can really do with it. I think a bob would suit my face but I'm afraid my hair will go into an afro type of thing, what do you think?

Can thick curly hair be cut into a bob?

Just a few tips from a helpful hairdresser:

First, have your hair cut when it's dry, because curly hair can shrink up to an inch and a half, and this varies with each person's hair texture and amount of curl.

Second:If the haircut "bells" at the bottom, then a few light layers can be added. Too much layering can add roundness around the top and sides of the head; your facial and whole body shape should be figured into this decision.

Third: weigh your styling options with a bob. How much time do you have every morning to get it looking good? Tell your hairdresser how much maintenance you are willing to put into a style.

Fourth: Do you want your hair curly, straight, or both? To get thick %26amp; curly hair completely straight, you'll need a good, hot straightening iron (400*F) to get all your curl out, plus spray heat protectant, to keep from frying it. If you want it curly, it's good to weight the hair down with a creme styling product, which creates soft curls, no frizz. Mousse and gel are good, too, and they create harder curls. Weighting it down keeps away the triangle/mushroom look.

Lastly: Is there a celebrity/family member whom you resemble? Imagine what they would look like with the style you want. I look like Delta Burke (Suzanne Sugarbaker in the 80's Designing Women show). I visualize what she would look like before I go ahead with a hairstyle. It works!

I hope you find something that works for you!

Can thick curly hair be cut into a bob?

I have thick curly hair and had mine cut into a bob. My stylist is awesome! She knew exactly how to cut it so that it wouldn't bush out on the sides or be too thick in the back or too flat on top. My hair is very spirally, so the cut worked for me. The only down side I found to cutting my hair so short (It had been down to my belt for about 4 years prior to that cut) is that I missed my long hair after about a month. That was 2 years ago this mother's day and my hair is back to my bra strap, so just remember, it grows back! And also remember, when going to the salon, if they cut it, and it isn't as short as you like it, you can go shorter....but once it's short, it's short!!!

Can thick curly hair be cut into a bob?

try a wig that is short on you head first see if you like it and you can maintain it. If it is likable the cut. I say get some layers or highlights. Cutting your hair because it is boring it is sad because your hair is you part of your beauty and it takes long to grow back. sometimes your hair can be like cutting a plant sometimes it never grows back. Whatever decision you make i am sure you would look gorgeous, if you think cutting your hair is like dusting dirt off your shoulders the go for it!!!
