Precision cut bobs are huge this year, coupled with smooth, sleek styling, a blunt fringe and heaps of shine. Your bob should be carefully crafted to accentuate your unique facial structure, or highlight a long neck. Bob hair styles range from ear level to shoulder skimming and are best for straight or slightly wavy hair. If your hair is too curly, a bob can take on the look of a triangle, widening at the bottom in an unflattering way. Only opt for the bangs with this hair style if it works with your facial structure.


And if you’re feeling a little more adventurous…incorporate a mod feel into your bob.This is a great medium bob on Elisha Cuthbert. Many women will find this blunt bob very flattering as the bangs add a touch to the bob and help soften other facial features like wider foreheads. The blunt sides help narrow the facial region and draw more attention to the overall look. This blunt, choppy bob is quite different from the normal traditional bobs but creates the same appeal with an added touch. A good option for people experienced with bobs who want to try a different variation.

 

This modern-day side-swept haircut offers a fresh and jaunty attitude that we fell in love with instantly. Urban shag, it's a contemporary trend that embodies carefree sophistication and just plain fun. The texture is achieved with a choppy "razor cutting" method, in which hair is cut at an angle to frame the face in long extended wisps.  After each section is dried in a downward motion, hair is blasted with cold air to help seal the cuticle. Next a straightening iron is run from the roots to the ends to ensure poker-straight hair.

 
 
Hot/cold blow-dry your hair at the roots: Blow-drying will give you a good lift if used with a fairly large, round brush. The trick is to situate the brush as close to your scalp as you can, essentially pulling the hair straight up from the base of your head, and using bursts of heat from the blow-dryer, aimed at the brush, followed by cool air which "sets" the style.


Set with Velcro rollers: A few strategically placed Velcro rollers will give your hair terrific volume. After hair is washed and blow-dried, curve one-inch sections of the hair you want lifted around the roller (small rollers for a slight lift and large for a higher lift). Three or four rollers should do the trick. Leave rollers in for about five minutes, remove and arrange newly lifted hair with your fingers. It's recommended you don't brush at this point, as brushing could "deflate" the set.

Use a curling iron... The right way: Because of the intense heat generated, a curling iron will give an instant lift. Starting at the crown of the head, take hold of one-Inch sections of hair and lift vertically, wrapping hair around the iron, as close to your scalp as you can. Then spray with a holding product such as Elevate, Eufora's workable Hair spray.
