Cosmopolitan beauty editor at Cosmopolitan, Beth Gillette, has found that keeping a bob haircut is the real commitment to styling it properly. She shares her favorite bob hairstyle ideas, which take less than five minutes to achieve. The article suggests that while the bob is a popular cut, it is also easy to create a few cute looks that can be easily done quickly. Examples include a half-up half-down look, a slicked-down, wet look, and a bold curling iron for formal events. A blow dryer and round brush can add volume at the roots and flick your ends in. A hair oil can help add shine to polish off the look.
