How to achieve a messy textured bob!

August 28, 2015

I recently chopped off all of my hair! I have always preferred long hair over short but with a lot of changes in my personal life I decided I was ready for a new look also! Since my hair is so drastically different I have been experimenting with lots of different styles to find the one I am most comfortable with! The textured messy look is definitely my favorite so far!

You will need: curling iron/wand, clips, dry shampoo

My hair is naturally completely straight lacking any texture. I find its easier to create this look with day old hair!

I first spray dry shampoo in my roots to add some texture and remove any oil.

Once you have applied the dry shampoo shake it all out! As you can see my hair already has much more volume.

Pin your hair half up so we can curl in sections.

Wrap your hair around the wand leaving the end out, we want that part to remain straight. I vary in the amount of hair for each curl because we want it to appear messy!

Shake it out, run your fingers through it and flip your hair! You are done, so easy!

Welcome, my name is Mercedez! My husband Nathan, our little pup Thomas, and I just moved into the country outside of Austin, TX. We purchased our first home and haven't stopped renovating since! Follow along as I share my all of my favorite things in life; recipes, DIY's, beauty stuff, fashion, interior design, and so much more! 

I'm at a point in my life where getting a table runner on sale makes the day worth living.....hahaha Today Id like to be back in Saint Tropez. Everyone go follow my floral design Instagram. Ready, set, go! @theheirloomtable Down by the lake with my love. ☕️ bigger than my face. I need it today. Throwback to the good days at home in California. Sometimes, most of the time, I really miss it. I bought this 10 million dollar water bottle because it looked cool. 😒 Making salsa watching the rain😌 It's 82 degrees and raining. In Texas 82 degrees feels like sweater weather. One more house picture cause I'm loving our new living room. So much brighter and cozier than the last ❤️ I love our throw pillows! My kitchen sink window makes me so happy 😍
