Braided Bob

When it comes to her hair, she wants options! This retro, 1920s-inspired faux bob gives your client the best of both worlds. Created using a braided technique and without cutting an inch of hair, this short, chic style is full of texture and zero commitment. Here’s how Michael Shaun Corby, Living Proof Global Creative Director, made it happen.
