Okay, dudes, let’s talk about Liv Morgan’s short hair. I’ve been following her style evolution, and when she chopped off her locks, I was immediately intrigued. So, I decided to try and recreate the magic, and I’m gonna walk you through my little experiment.
First things first, I studied a ton of pictures. You gotta get a good look at the cut from all angles, you know? It’s not just a simple bob; there’s some layering, some texturing going on. It’s shorter in the back, longer in the front – a classic A-line situation.
Then, I gathered my tools. I didn’t go full salon-style or anything. I used some hair-cutting scissors I had on hand, clips to section my hair and texturizing shears.
The Cutting Process
- I started by washing and drying my hair. I like to use texturizing spary.
- I then sectioned the hair.
- Then, I took a deep breath and started with the back. I went slow, real slow, snipping little bits at a time. This is the scariest part, so I just kept reminding myself it’s just hair, it’ll grow back. I aimed for that slight angle, keeping it shorter near the nape of my neck.
- Next, I moved to the sides. This is where the A-line shape really comes in. I made sure the front pieces were longer, gradually getting shorter towards the back. I kept checking the length, comparing the sides to make sure they were even-ish. Nobody wants a lopsided bob, right?
- Once I had the basic shape, I went in with the texturizing * helps to soften the edges and give it that piece-y, lived-in look that Liv rocks so well. I just snipped at the ends, mostly, to break up any blunt lines.
The whole process probably took me a good hour, maybe more. I’m no professional, so I was extra cautious. And honestly, I think that’s the key – patience. Don’t rush it, take your time, and keep checking your progress.
The result? It wasn’t a perfect replica of Liv’s, of course. My hair is a different texture, and I’m sure she has a pro stylist working their magic. But, it was close. I got that edgy, A-line bob vibe, and I was pretty stoked with it. The biggest difference is that I don’t use any type of coloring.
It’s a fun cut to style, too. You can wear it sleek and straight, or add some waves for a more tousled look. A little texturizing spray or pomade helps to define the layers and give it that effortless, cool-girl feel.
