There’s a reason the wavy bob is such a popular choice. The shorter back gives it a nice shape, while the waves make it feel relaxed rather than too polished.


We recreated Halle Berry’s wavy graduated bob with HairLook to see how the cut changes her look. The shorter length and soft waves give the hairstyle more movement and a fresh, modern feel.


Thinking about trying a similar cut? You can try Halle’s look on your own photo with HairLook and see how it suits you before heading to the salon.

Below, you can see before-and-after examples of women trying wavy bob hairstyles inspired by Pinterest with HairLook. Instead of just saving a photo and wondering whether it will suit them, they can upload the hairstyle inspiration and see how it looks on their own face.


It’s a simple way to play around with different lengths, waves and shapes before making the cut.


Here are a few wavy bob transformations to see the difference for yourself.


1. From Long, Straight Hair to a Soft Wavy Bob With Balayage

Her longer hair has a smooth, simple shape with less movement around the face. After the transformation, the shorter bob and loose waves bring more body to the sides and create a softer, fuller-looking silhouette.


2. From Flat, Long Layers to a Fuller-Looking Wavy Bob

The longer grayish hair has a sleek, understated shape. The wavy bob gives it a fresh feel, adding movement and bringing out more dimension in the natural gray.

The longer style has plenty of length but doesn't have much volume around the face. Cutting it into a wavy bob brings the movement higher up and gives the hair a lighter, more voluminous feel.


4. From Straight Hair to a Soft, Textured Graduated Bob

The original style falls smoothly around the face and has a more elongated shape. The shorter bob adds structure, while the loose waves give the hair more texture and movement.


5. From Long Gray Hair to a Light Brown Face-Framing Wavy Bob

The long hair creates a simple, flowing silhouette. The wavy bob brings more shape around the face, with soft waves adding body and giving the overall look a relaxed, polished finish.


Thinking About Trying a Wavy Bob?

A wavy bob can be a surprisingly simple way to change your look. A few inches off and some soft waves can give fine hair more movement and make the whole style feel lighter and fresher.


The tricky part is knowing whether you'll actually like it on your face.


With HairLook, you can upload a hairstyle you found on Pinterest and see how the look translates to you. Try different bob lengths, waves, layers, or bangs until you find one that feels right.
