What is the difference between short short bob bob?
In their 50s and 60s, more and more women cut their hair from long to short because their hair loses its luster and elasticity and is easily damaged.
Two hairstyles that are particularly popular among women in their 50s are short hair and bob. However, since short hair and bob hair are almost the same length, many people say that they don’t know what the difference is.
So first, let’s check the difference between short short bob bob.
short hair
Short cuts around the face, such as the sides and neckline. The short ones with ears are called belly short. It’s a hairstyle that makes your face look smaller, but the length that suits you depends on your hair type and face shape (round face, long face, etc.), so consult with your hairdresser before cutting.
short bob
A hairstyle that combines the features of short and bob. It is longer than short hair, so it has a rounded shape, and the back is shorter than a bob (a length that does not reach the shoulders). The front-down bob has longer hair on the sides than the back, so it can cover the slack around the face.
bob
A hairstyle that does not have many layers on the surface and the length of the hair is uniform. Bob is one of the “hairstyles that never fail” because it can be arranged in various ways.
What hairstyle makes you look older? Characteristics of a short bob that makes you look younger
The point that you should pay attention to in the hairstyles of women in their 50s and 60s is the volume of the hair. Especially for people with fine hair, the top tends to be flat, so if you make a part, it will give you a poor impression.
3 reasons why your hair looks old
- Lack of volume on the top and sides of the head
- there is a division
- Lack of movement and flat
A short bob has the advantage that it is easier to increase the volume than a long one because it does not weigh the hair. The point to make you look younger is to move the ends of your hair and increase the volume of your hair. When your face becomes gorgeous, it will be a hairstyle that makes you look younger.
Among the short bobs, the “rhombus bob” is recommended for women in their 50s and 60s who are concerned about sagging faces, as it adds volume to the top and sides to make your face look smaller.
Check out hairstyles that match the shape of your face, such as round face and long face!
In general, people with round faces are recommended to have a slightly vertically long rhombus silhouette, and people with long faces are recommended to have a rhombus silhouette with bangs.
- People with round faces: pay attention to the volume on the sides. A short bob that gives volume to the top is recommended
- Person with long face: Pay attention to the volume of the top. A short bob that gives volume to the sides is recommended.
Now that you know the points, let’s take a look at the recommended “short bob” styles for people in their 50s and 60s!
If you compare the before and after photos, you can see that just by changing the hairstyle, it has become fashionable.
Style 1: Short bob with perm
Ms. Yuko Onishi (62 years old)
Desired haircut: I want a style that is soft but easy to set in the morning.
Hair salon: GARDEN omotesando Stylist: Toshitomo Takahashi
“Mr. Onishi has a lot of hair and he has a perm, so it might be difficult for him to adjust the volume by himself,” said Mr. Takahashi of the hair salon GARDEN.
So, to make it easy to set up every morning and keep Mr. Onishi’s femininity, he chose a short bob that made the most of his original perm.
Mr. Onishi is small at 153cm, but when his neck became lighter, his whole body became more balanced.
After finishing the haircut, her husband, who came to pick her up, said, “That’s nice. It suits you.” “It was the first time I was told (laughs), but I was happy. Setting up in the morning is really easy! Just wet it with a mist spray, apply mousse, and squeeze your hair in several places, and you’re done.” (Mr. Onishi)
“I used to wrap my hair in a stole,” said Mr. Onishi. Now that my hair is shorter, I can wrap my stole neatly.
Style 2: Short bob with movement that makes use of curly hair
Mr. M (64 years old)
Desire for a haircut: I want to have a coherent hairstyle without the hassle of setting.
Hair Salon: RUALA Stylist: Kaoru Sumi
Since she has curly hair and a lot of hair, Mr. M seems worried, saying, “If I cut it short, my hair won’t be put together.” Mr. Kado of the hair salon RUALA understood that feeling and proposed a short bob that is easy to set.
“In order to keep the surface of the hair from spreading out, I did not add any layers and reduced the amount of hair on the inside.
Even thick knitwear and dark colored pants, which tend to look heavy, can be transformed into something light!
“Did you get a perm from a friend? They told me I looked younger. Now it’s fun to go out.” (Mr. M)
Style 3: Fashionable with a diamond-shaped bob without division!
Keiko Okoshi (54 years old)
Desire for a cut: Eliminate the parting at the top for a stylish hairstyle.
Hair salon: Egao beauty salon Stylist in charge: Takahiro Terui
Hairstyles with noticeable parting are the cause of looking old without being sophisticated. It is important to increase the volume of the hair to make the parting less noticeable.
“I put layers around the face and top to cut it so that it’s easy to create volume, and then use a slide cut to emphasize movement,” says Terui of the Egao beauty salon.
Furthermore, “By styling with curlers around the top and whorls, the rise of the roots and the hair flow at the ends of the hair will be added, giving a gorgeous impression.”
When drying the hair on the back of the head with a hairdryer, the point is to apply warm air from the bottom to the top and raise the hair from the roots.
Style 4: Solve wavy hair with inner curls! small face bob
Kazue Ogura (59 years old)
Desire for a cut: The undulations appear and it doesn’t come together! I want to have a hairstyle that can be put together with my hands.
Hair salon: Egao beauty salon Stylist in charge: Takahiro Terui
Ogura says that it is difficult to get her hair together. The solution to Ogura’s hair problems is Egao Beauty Salon Terui.
“The ends of the hair are cut so that they can easily be rolled inward, and the back of the head and sides are softly applied with a gradation.
As for the styling, she says, “By using a brush or straightening iron to create a unity, and using a hand comb and soft wax to make the hair flow backwards, you can create a glossy impression.”
Style 5: Volume Up! Glossy bob that is easy to care for
Ms. Machiko Tabei (age 59)
Desired haircut: I don’t want the overall volume to come out, so I want a soft finish.
Hair salon: Egao beauty salon Stylist in charge: Takafumi Ishikawa
Ms. Tabei, who is worried about her hair getting flattened easily, says, “It’s okay, you can definitely increase the volume by cutting your hair asymmetrically and making your bangs short.”
As declared, the top, sides, and back of the head are all soft and voluminous!
“Since the back of the head is cut in a round and beautiful line, the hair is shiny and does not look damaged.It is a hairstyle that gives volume easily by simply blowing it out.” Finished with a hairstyle.
