Step 3: Separate the Hair Into Sections
Use a comb to unclog the wig to keep the hair smooth and tangle-free. Then part the hair into a four-section, five-section, or seven-section.
Step 4: Cut Your Hair Short
From bottom to top, trim hair according to sections. It is best to trim the length slightly shorter than the planned length to facilitate adjustment later.
Step 5: Trim the Bob Shape
To get a classic bob shape, trim with your scissors at a downward angle. This will help you create a slight angle from back to front, with symmetry on both sides.
Once the final look is complete, the hair can be straightened and given a second trim. You can then style your bob wig to your liking or use hair dye to dye it your favorite color.
