An iconic cut meets 90s volume with the latest bob trend — the airy bob. This look combines a stellar shape with tons of volume for maximum impact and ease in styling. This modern-day bob is the answer if you’re looking for a new low-key style.
What Is The Airy Bob?
The airy bob has a slightly longer shape than a traditional bob, falling below the jawline. Although it has a substantial weight line, this bob has more texture and layers for low-maintenance styling. The overall result is less sleek and more voluminous, with a length long enough that it can easily be pulled back into a low pony or bun.
Because this look focuses on movement and an airy finish, your stylist must tailor the look to your hair type and facial structure. If hair is on the thicker side, weight will need to be taken out to create a lofty finish. However, if hair is fine or thin, a blunt cut is ideal as long as you pair it with volumizing products.

Global color choices help add a 90s vibe to this look, but we love the addition of halo highlights or color sweep highlights even more. These soft color choices create a lit-from-within glow without taking away from the shape of the cut.
How To Style The Airy Bob
To capitalize on the shape of this look, blow dry volume into the roots and flip under the ends. While many will wear this look smooth and styled, the cut can also be worn with natural curls or waves. For extra flair, ask your stylist to add a fringe.
- First, apply Redken Big Blowout, comb through, and dry with a round brush.
- If extra volume is needed, apply KEVIN.MURPHY ANTI.GRAVITY.SPRAY before styling and touch up with Living proof Dry Shampoo in the following days to extend the style.
- If you need to add volume quickly, flip your part from side to side throughout the day for effortless volume.
