Hair traits might come and go, however the bob haircut is all the time in type. And the triumphant return of the ’90s supermodel bob and lob proves simply that.
Also called the flipped bob or “flob,” the ’90s supermodel bob combines the feel and quantity of Cindy Crawford’s signature bombshell blowout with the size, motion, and low-maintenance of Christy Turlington’s and Eva Herzigová's signature bobs. So whereas the look is (clearly) extremely stylish, it’s sensible too.
“The '90s supermodel bob has the line and length of the bob but the top layers have much more texture, so it’s lighter on top and easier to flip around,” superstar hairstylist Marc Mena tells Glamour, although you can even put on it simply previous the shoulders for a voluminous lob. “Flipping your hair can feel really heavy with a regular bob, since it’s cut with no part, but the flob is cut and parted all around—in the middle, on the left, and then the right—so the ends are just texturized and it gives the hair movement.”
The ’90s supermodel bob is the best—and chicest—strategy to immediately add volume and texture to quick hair. It’s no surprise so many celebrities are obsessive about the look. Sydney Sweeney, Madelyn Cline, Zendaya, and extra have all worn the throwback lower as of late.

In response to Mena, the key to making sure a very voluminous ’90s supermodel bob is barely-there layers. “The layers are so light and blended you don’t actually see a layer,” he says. So remember to request tremendous-light layers on the salon. If the highest is just too heavy, it gained’t flip, which is a key element of the look.
“A hair flip creates body. When you flip it back and forth, the hair cuticle starts to mold with each part, and gives your hair more volume,” he says. “It’s like putting a roller in your hair.”
The flob alerts a shift away from high-maintenance hair trends. “Over the past few years, we’ve seen that everything is so styled, you can’t touch it, but with the flob, we’re seeing a lot of women cutting off all those old balayaged colors, getting rid of split ends, starting fresh, and embracing, flipping, and playing with their natural hair,” Mena says.
It’s additionally a lot much less of a problem relating to type and restyling, Mena provides. “You can style your flob one day, then the next day when you wake up, just reset it at the top, and it’s right back to where you started.”
As for a way to make sure your ’90s supermodel bob has all that va-va-volume from the get-go? Begin by switching to a volumizing shampoo and conditioner, and solely apply conditioner to the ends. “I don’t like to condition roots, especially with the flob,” Mena says. “Just a little bit on the ends goes a long way.”
Subsequent, Mena advises making use of mousse to moist hair. “I’ve really been liking the Leonor Greyl mousse, because it’s very light and not sticky, and Pantene has a really great mousse as well,” he says. As soon as your mousse and heat-protectant are utilized, dry your hair both with a blow-dryer and spherical flat brush, or blow-dry brush just like the Dyson AirWrap or Trademark Beauty Easy Blo.
“Use a round brush to style the top, then section it into inch-and-a-half sections, and set it in rollers,” Mena says. “Let it sit while you finish getting ready, then once you’re done and it sets, it will flip around and feel moveable and touchable.”
