Forget the Trends—This Classic, Low-Maintenance Bob Hairstyle Will Forever Be In

I know what you’re thinking, not another bob trend to get on board with. Don’t worry, as this isn’t really a trend, but more of an effortless hairstyle that all the chicest people seem to sport. That’s right, I’m talking about none other than the wavy bob. Now you know I love nothing more than a big, bouncy curl, however, after looking at various wavy bob hairstyles on Instagram, I have grown very fond of this more relaxed, laid-back style. Not only is it easy to re-create, but it gives that perfect “I just woke up like this” finish to the hair that I have tried desperately hard to master over the years.

If you’re blessed with natural waves, then you might already be rocking this hairstyle on a daily basis. If not, then I’ve got you covered with all the inspo you need. Of course, I’ve also taken it upon myself to do some research into what products to use to create those beachy-looking ends, and there are so many incredible options on the market. So, if you’re thinking about giving this chic, low-maintenance look a go, keep on scrolling for some of the best wavy bob hairstyles out there. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed…
