Bobs are a short hair style that
is always in high hair fashion and can be custom cut and colored to enhance any type, texture or length of hair.
Bobs are the universal short hair style. The right bob style, like a beveled bob, can also work with any face shape. Adjustments can be made to the fringe or bang area, length and layers to play up some features and minimize others. This classic bob
(shown to the side) displays brilliantly beveled ends cut on a curve to add natural bend, mobility and flexibility to ends. Flip them under, up or let them move to their own flow. So what is a beveled bob? Instead of cutting hair straight across in a line, hair dresses lift individual pieces of hair and curve the ends over their fingers as they clip to add natural bends and movement to the ends. What is the advantage to beveling ends?
When ends are curved as they are cut, it enhances any natural bend to the edges. As a result, beveled ends have extra movement and mobility. You can style them in a variety of ways ranging from flip under or up or left to move according to their own flow.

Her trend-setting "bob" hairstyle set the hair world on its end. Neither short hair nor bobs aren't as simple and blunt cut as they were when Louise Brooks wore hers. Now they can morph through a dizzying array of texture changes ranging from uneven lengths to
asymmetrical choppy edges. |
