Kate Upton Medium Wavy Light Blonde Bob Haircut


Added: 30 Mar 2017
This blonde mane is dressed in waves and curls all through the back and sides to achieve a classic look and feel. The body and volume makes this formal style perfect to complement an oval or long face for any occasion. Product is needed for hold and shine.

Kate Upton goes all out glamorous here with this vintage inspired classic ‘do. Kate has strong cheekbones and a round face shape, making a shoulder length or longer hair ideal for her. She also has a low forehead which means she is better suited to a grown out fringe. This cut ticks all of those boxes and provides Kate with a gorgeous face-framing ‘do that brings out all of her best features. To style it up, large waves and curls were added to her side-parted locks to create an old Hollywood-style finish. This is a great way to jazz up fine or limp hair for a formal event or night on the town.

Kate loves to experiment with her look but tends to stick with blonde as her signature hair color. Here, she chooses a honey blonde base with subtle lighter highlights throughout that looks fabulous with her warm, golden-based skin tone and blue eyes. Her natural hair color is apparent at the top and finishes her 'do off with natural looking finish.

Kate Upton is an American model and actress, known for her appearances in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

step 1

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your right eye and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even right part. A side part is great for longer face shapes because it creates the illusion of width.


step 2

A large radial brush is usually used on long straight hair types or to smooth out wavy or curly hair textures. When selecting a radial brush, always use one with a pure bristle as this will not tear or damage the hair.


step 3

To blow-dry under, start at the nape/back and place your brush under the section of hair close to the nape. With the dryer held up over the hair, pull the brush from the roots and continue to the mid length's, keeping the blow-dryer following over the top. Once you reach the ends, curve them under. Repeat this step until the section is completely dry.


step 4

To blow-dry the sides, take out a small section of hair from the front and clip the rest of the hair away. Next, place the brush under the section and then pull the brush and hair forward around your face (this curving motion creates body). Place the hair-dryer on top of the brush until you reach the ends and then turn the ends under. Repeat until dry.


step 5

To blow-dry the top section back you will need to take your brush and firstly make sure that the section is no wider than the diameter of the brush. Next, place your brush on top of your head and under your section. Using your blow-dryer on a medium setting, blow-dry your hair from the roots, slowly lifting your hair up and working your way to the ends. Make sure to keep the blow-dryer in front of the brush at all times. Continue this step until the top section is completely dry.


step 6

To blow-dry the crown/top sections, take a section of hair no bigger than the diameter of the brush and blow-dry the hair placing the brush under the section of hair. With your blow-dryer in front of the brush, follow the brush in an upwards direction at the roots and an outwards position at the ends for volume and softness. Continue until the section is dry.


step 7

A large hot roller is used to give your hair a larger curl and to add lots of body.


step 8

Take a section of hair no wider than the diameter of the hot roller and comb it through to ensure there are no knots. Place the roller at the ends of the section of hair, being sure to smooth the ends under, and then twist the roller vertically, making sure to roll it backwards, along the hair shaft to the roots and secure it with a pin or clip. Keep the rollers in your hair until they cool.


step 9

Take a section of hair from the nape no wider than the diameter of the hot roller and comb it through to ensure there are no knots. Place the roller at the ends of the section of hair, being sure to smooth the ends under, and then twist the roller vertically down the hair shaft to the roots and secure it with a pin or clip. Continue this step until the entire back section of your hair is completed. Keep the rollers in your hair until they cool.


step 10

Apply your moulding cream to the ends of your hair and then lightly pinch and scrunch the hair before allowing your moulding cream to set.


step 11

To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
