How to Give Yourself an A-Line Bob

DIY-Curly-Hair-Bob-unknownmami

I’ve been wanting a haircut for some time. The truth is: I’ve been needing a haircut for some time, but I couldn’t muster the gumption to walk into a salon and have it done because I am experiencing a big psoriasis flare up on the back of my neck that is not really the kind of thing I want to make a stylist stare at and wonder about.

I really don’t feel like explaining it so instead I decided to take matters into my own hands and give myself an A-line bob, which could have been disastrous because I have curly hair and as much as I love my curls I certainly don’t want to piss them off.

Well, I’m pretty happy with the results if I do say so myself. I’m sure a professional stylist would have done a more professional job, but my do-it -yourself effort turned out swell.

Check out my video explanation here:

Also, this video below is the one that gave me the courage to take scissors to my own hair.

 

Have you ever given yourself a haircut?

    Good for you! The instructional video was great! I wish I’d had something like that when my curly hair was longer, I would have saved myself a ton o’money! Your cut looks great! xoxo

      I was a little scared to do it, but the thing about hair is that it does tend to grow back so I’m glad I did it.

    I love the video, Claudya. You look fabulous – the hairstyle suits you so well.
    By the way, I always cut my own hair 🙂

      Thank you. My mother is a hair dresser so for most of my life she has cut it, but she is taking too long to come for a visit, so I just had to go for it.
