These Tips From Anh Co Tran Will Help You Dry-Cut The Lived-In Lob. What’s THE cut your clients will ask for this fall? It is, and has been, and maybe always will be, the lived-in lob—and you can learn it from “The Lobfather” himself, Anh Co Tran, co-owner of Ramirez | Tran Salon and the creator and master of the most double-tapped lobs on Insta.
“What’s great about dry cutting is that you can customize it, when it’s wet you can’t see the hair as well,” says Anh. This helps you identify the true texture of the clients hair, including all of the previous layers, whorls and cowlicks, and makes it easier to style.
Anh Co Tran is the definition of a celebrity hair stylist. He travels all over the world giving famous people—including Anne Hathaway and Julianne Moore—his signature “lived-in” cuts. Anh is used to working under pressure and for highly-demanding clients, so I figured that made him especially qualified to give advice on how to handle the hair of wiggly, complaining kids. He dished all of his pro secrets, including his 10 favorite hair products, and shared five hair styles that even the most hair-inept (um, me) can easily execute.

Among the few notable things about this year’s Golden Globes was that so many women dispensed with long curling-ironed hair or chignons or whatever other frippery and just chopped it. Saoirse Ronan had a lob, or “long bob,” styled by Ben Skervin. Claire Foy: mini-bob. Maya Rudolph: sharp medium-long bob. Lobs, too, for Lucy Boynton (“Bohemian Rhapsody”) and Irina Shayk, a model.
We’ve already let you in on how to care for your shears. Now it’s time to talk about the crème de la crème of the cutting tools, with a little insight from the mane masters. In the gallery below, celebrity hairstylists share their favorite cutting shears for blunt bobs, layers, and more.
