Bob Hairstyle Secrets

Bob Hairstyle Secrets




One trick many hairdressers know about creating a crisp, flawless bob hairstyle is to place a flat hand mirror directly and horizontally under the perimeter of the finished cut. 


The glass in the mirror reflects the line of the Bob at a perfect angle for checking and fine tuning the cut. 


What does this trick tell you about a Bob?  That's it's key to find a hairstylist with lots of Bob cutting experience and skill.  Ultimately how good your bob looks depends on the hairstylist who cuts it for you.


This style is best for hair which is naturally straight or has very light natural waves and/or loose curls.  Yes, it can be cut on hair which has lots of curl but to create the traditional Bob shape it will have to be either chemically relaxed or straightened or flat ironed daily.



According to Michael Boychuck, owner of Primp Salon in Nevada, people in dry climates like Las Vegas love the bob's geometric cut because it’s basically wash-and-go. 


Again, keep in mind that it depends on your base hair texture.  This may not be true for all hair types.


Follow the steps below to re-create Camila's gorgeous hairstyle worn on an episode of Shear Genius 3. 


Although her long naturally curly tresses were most likely covered by a Bob wig, you can still create the look on your own hair with the following steps:






1.  Cleanse your hair according to your normal routine (Diluted Shampoo, Water Only, Conditioner Only).  For added fullness use a volumizing shampoo.
2.  Rinse well and apply rinse-out conditioner appropriate to your hair length, type, texture and condition.
3.  Finish with a cool or cold water rinse.  
4.  Towel blot to remove excess moisture.  
5.  Apply styling cocktail including a volumizing product to pump up roots.  If your hair tends to frizz include an anti-defrisant product to the cocktail.  Detangle from ends to roots.
6.  Create desired part with tail comb and separate hair into 2 inch sections.  Work around the head using a100% boar bristle round brush in combination with a blow drier with a concentrator nozzle.  Direct air flow from roots down to the ends for shine.  Once each strand is dry, move onto the next



Note:  To add volume to the roots, pull each strand up with your fingers and direct air flow from the ends to the roots.  This will build in more fullness.


7.  When hair is completely cool go over the strands with a medium flat iron to add sleekness and turn the ends under.
8.  Finish with a shine enhancing hairspray.  Add an optional hair flower.

Hairspray Tips

While hairspray might have gotten a bad reputation with past hair clogging formulas, the products available today are much more lightweight and hair-friendly. So, if it’s been a while since you’ve used hairspray, or if you’re looking for a great tough-hold hair styling product which is virtually fuss-free to use, then give hairspray a try - and make the most of it with these tips!

 Hairsprays come in different strengths to cater to all types of hairstyles. As a general rule, low hold spray is for looks that require nothing more than hold, such as straight hairstyles. Medium hold can cater for more structured styles, such as a half up, half down hairstyle or some loose carefree waves. And strong hold is for the more elaborate looks such as updos and anything that requires all-day hold such as a wedding hairstyle or a formal hairstyle.




 As well as different strengths, hairsprays also have different features depending on the brand. For example, some hairspray products feature a flexible hold which will allow you to style your hair one way, then give you locks a brush and re-style another way. It’s perfect for day to night looks or for an after work get together which requires a new 'do.

 One of the most common uses for hairspray is to add volume to your hair and there are plenty of volumizing hairsprays on sale that cater for this use. Add them to your roots and under layers to give your locks a volume hit.

 Hairspray can be used to revive a day old blow-dry by flipping your hair forward, giving it a good spritz with the hairspray, and then flipping your hair back and using your fingers to smooth your style back into place.

 For a natural looking hairstyle that will hold in place all day, spray hairspray into your hair brush and then brush it through your hair. Style your hair into place and then add another fine coat of hairspray over your locks directly from the can to set your style.

 It can be used to set your curls. Once your hair rollers are in place, or you’ve wrapped section of hair around your curling iron, spritz your locks with hairspray to help create and keep your curly shape.

 Hairspray is suitable for all hair types.



 Remember that a good hairspray will not leave your hair sticky or full of flakes. If it does then try another brand.

 Hairspray can be used to tame fly-away strands. Try this trick of spraying your hands with hairspray and then running your palms gently over your locks to keep any fly-aways in place.

 If you hate that crunchy feel that can result from using hairspray then there are two ways to avoid it. The first is to make sure that you don’t overdo it on the hairspray. Too much hair product will overload your locks and make them sticky and crunchy. Make sure you use the minimum amount for the style you’re trying to create (use the less is more approach and only add more spray if needed). The second is for when you’re heat styling. After adding your hairspray to your hair, let it soak in a little before using your blow-dryer, hair straightener or curling iron so that the heat doesn't make your hairspray finish too solid or stiff.

 If you’ve used hairspray as your setting product and you then find that your style is starting to drop then you can reactivate your hairspray by spritzing your locks with a little water.

 Our final hairspray tip is to pack a mini can of hairspray in your handbag to fix any minor hairstyle emergencies on the go.Source URL: https://cognition-senses.blogspot.com/search/label/hair%20damage
