Brittany Murphy’s Flippy Bob

This playful 90s bob features piecey layers with outward-flipped ends, creating a lively, dynamic look. Inspired by Brittany Murphy’s signature style, it adds movement and volume to medium-length hair, making it perfect for casual outings, retro events, or everyday glamour. The flippy layers give a youthful, effortless energy that defined the era.

Instructions

   Start with clean, towel-dried hair. Apply heat protectant spray evenly throughout.

2. 2

   Divide hair into top and bottom layers using hair clips for easier styling.

3. 3

   Using a round brush, blow-dry the bottom layer, rolling the ends outward to create the flippy effect.

4. 4

   Release the top layer and repeat the blow-drying and flipping technique.

5. 5

   Adjust flipped ends with the brush or fingers to achieve a piecey, textured look.

6. 6

   Check overall shape and volume, ensuring layers are separated and ends are flipped outward evenly.

7. 7

   Finish with a light mist of hairspray to hold the style without weighing down the natural movement.

8. 8

   Optional: Tousle layers gently with fingers for a more effortless, playful finish typical of the 90s.

Styling Tips

• For a sharper flip, use a smaller round brush on shorter layers

• Add texturizing spray before blow-drying for extra volume and separation

• Perfect for medium-length hair but can be adapted for longer bobs

• Avoid brushing too much after styling to maintain the piecey effect
