Modify Your Bob hairstyle? Why not?

The bob hair cuts of today are simply variations of the look created in the 1920’s. Four decades ago, Maurice Tidy worked with Vidal Sassoon in London popularizing the 1960s bob hair style.

Not only is the bob hairstyle gorgeous but it is versatile and easy to wear. The traditional bob is a short, sleek and severe cut with all the hair being cut in to the same length, except, of course the bangs. The length of the bob is usually between the chin and the shoulders. But today’s bob has a lot more stuff. It is not blunt cut anymore instead women prefer it soft and sexy. Now-a-days, stylists use a razor to trim the ends, which makes them really light and soft and swingy.

With more geometric cuts, these styles are very popular today. Some women still wear the traditional bob cut, while others choose the more popular style, with more angled sides, shorter bangs, or having the bangs longer than the back. These styles are very demanded due to their easy care for today’s working woman. The bob style haircut is here to stay.

You need not be stuck with the bob hairstyle of the same length and color. You can modify your bob by changing the shape without losing the length. You can cut some layers into it. Long, medium and short layers can do wonders to spice up any bob hairstyle. You can flip your ends out and also use contrasting hair color. You can use a darker shade on the top and go lighter as you cover the ends. You also have the option of changing your angles and sporting the asymmetrical bob. Go longer on one side while progressively cutting it short on the other. You can also part your hair in the center or at the sides and tuck the stray wisps behind your ears.

No matter which Bob hair cut you choose, it should be shiny and natural looking. Keep your style simple and easy to manage, which is the Bob trademark!
