Knotless method and shaping
The knotless method for a boho bob uses gradual feed-in braiding to create a softer, reduced-tension base and a natural-looking, bob-length silhouette. In a Large service we arrange looser, textured sections and integrate curly extensions so the finished shape sits at bob length while keeping movement and a lightweight crown.
This service is listed as Starting at $250 and scheduled for 270 minutes; actual shop time depends on hair, density, and requested detail. Hair is not included — please contact Studio 818 before buying hair so we can confirm the correct braiding and curly hair types and quantities. Price may increase for extra-thick hair.
Hair supply and quantities
Because this listing excludes hair, clients purchase extensions separately. For a Large boho bob we typically recommend buying enough hair to allow for layered bob shaping and curl blending; exact amounts vary by natural texture and section size. Contact the studio before shopping so we can advise on braiding hair types and quantities.
If your natural hair is extra thick or you want denser sections, note that the Starting at $250 price may increase to reflect additional time and materials. We confirm whether selected hair pieces match your curl type and how many packs are needed. Bringing reference photos and purchased hair to the appointment speeds setup.
