To give it a look that is in step with the modern times, dampen your hair and apply a light leave in treatment. Using a blow dryer along with a paddle brush, simply set your hair and ensure that the style frames your face in a gentle manner. If you are looking for a more voluminous look, then you can apply a smoothening lotion to your damp hair and then use a blow dryer first. Later, with the help of a straightening iron, you can create a look that is sleek, but also provides volume to the top of the head or in the crown area.

  • Classic girl: If you have a short bob, then you could go for a look that is popularly known as the classic girl. The look is a soft and gentle one, which is often styled using the fingers. The style is done using dry hair, wherein you have to apply a lightweight texturizing serum and give it the time to set. Your curling iron should have a large barrel setting, using which you should try to create S like waves all through your hair. Make sure that you do not comb your hair through vigorously after that and finish the look with a hairspray. You can make the look a tad bit more stylish, by adding a bejewelled or floral headband.
  • Ringlets: This is yet another great hairstyle for short bob cuts and does not require a lot of work. Use a volumizing serum or foam and work it through the length of your dry hair. With the help of a small barrel curling iron, create curls in your hair and allow them to set for a while. Before finishing the style off, run your fingers through the base of the hair and spray a light hold hairspray.

  • Top knot: While a full-fledged top knot might not be possible with short hair, a half top knot most certainly is. Gather the top half of your hair around the crown and tie it up like a ponytail.

Section the front part of your hair into two parts and the twist both of them towards the back. Once you are about to reach the centre, simply twist each end into the other, so that there is no clear line of demarcation of either sides.

Over the past few years, more and more women are now looking at elegant and sophisticated hairdos, which will make them stand apart from the rest of the guests.

Messy side ponytail

Not all people like the sleek look, because to many, the look is a harsh one. For such people, there is the option of the messy side ponytail, which can look quite gentle and feminine. Once you have washed your hair, use a towel to dry it out and before it dries out completely, work in a volumizer. Blow dry your hair, using your hands and no combs or brushes. Now, gently part the hair to one side and it is best that you not use a comb for the same, because a well-defined parting line will take away from the gentleness of the style. Secure the ponytail with a clear rubber band and use a small section of hair to gently cover the rubber band. You can even back comb the ponytail to give it more lift and volume.

Rolled chignon

A rolled chignon is extremely sophisticated, while providing a subtle gentleness to your entire look. In order to provide your hair the boost it requires, flip your head upside down and then blow dry your hair. Create a middle parting and remove small sections on either side of the parting, towards the crown of the head. Tease the crown lightly to create a sense of volume, but make sure that there is just a mild bump. After this, you can start rolling the hair into the chignon and make sure that the sections are secured with pins. You might have to use hair spray to ensure that the hair stays in place. Drape the sections from the front, moving it towards the back and make sure that the tops of the ears are covered gently. These sections should then to be twisted into loose coils, which should sit right above the bun.

Tousled chignon

This is ideally a great choice for people who have wavy hair, and it can work well even for people who have straight hair, because it will need to be lightly curled or simply blow dried with a volumizer worked into the hair. Once you have made your hair curly or at least wavy, pull your hair into a low ponytail and remember to leave out a small section on either side of the ears. This is to ensure that there is an illusion of volume along the hairline. Twist the ponytail into a bun and secure it with as many pins as required. Take the two sections that had been kept aside near the ears, and wrap them around the bun and tuck them inwards.

Gather your hair into a high ponytail and secure it with a clear rubber band and tease the same to generate extra fullness.
