How would you describe this look?
This look is a silk press, honey blonde color, trim with soft curls and a wispy feathered bang. The loveliest thing about this look is the bang. I just love how the bang adds a little edge and class. Bob haircuts for black women can feature a color combination like this one for a very flattering finish.
Any advice for someone considering it?
This bob is perfect for black women with medium/long hair types. When clients have color in their hair, it’s important to keep their hair deep conditioned at least every two weeks. To preserve the curls, pin curl the curls in place with a bobby pin and then place either a silk bonnet or scarf over them.
A-Line Lob

How would you describe this look?
This is an A-line bob haircut, where it is a bit longer in the front than the back. It frames and flatters the face without being heavy on the layers or length. The bob is a trendy look from last year. There are so many different types of bobs out there from shaggy, textured, angled bobs etc. This haircut is such an easy hairstyle to maintain while keeping styling to a minimum, and can be worn for formal occasions or just hanging with your friends.
The color used was a cool brunette gloss, which goes well with anyone with natural brown hair. The gloss helped removed the dullness from her hair while enhancing the color a bit and adding some shine as well.
Any advice for someone considering it?
This haircut I consider it a universal cut as it works well on any texture of hair such as straight, wavy, or curly. If you’re looking to make your hair appear fuller, the shape of the bob can accomplish that. Depending on the length and angle of the bob, this haircut can work with just about any shape of face out there.
To create more volume on the sides (longer shaped faces), I suggest a jawline length for this look, if you want to create a look for a round or more angular shaped face then I suggest a longer cut. Like I said anyone could wear this haircut just ask your hairstylist what he or she thinks goes best with your face shape.
Given that she is a natural and has pretty tight curls, this look can be achieved best doing flat iron curls. Typically, I would do the curls super tight, however, for this look I did the curls with a flat iron doing small sections at a time, going in the opposite direction and not letting the curls cool tightly but instead running my hands through them as they cool to create a more relaxed curl.
In terms of products, my rule is to use a heat protection to protect your hair when straightening and as well as to give it some shine. I used Ciment Thermique Blow Dry Primer by Kerasyase as a heat protection to protect the hair before blow-drying. I added in the Elixir Ultime hair oil by Kerastase as well to give the hair more shine before styling and after styling for next day hair to come. Lastly, I used another heat protectant for the hair before straightening or curling called Sérum Thérapiste Hair Serum by Kerastase. As the final touch, I sprayed a lightweight texturizing hair spray by Shu Uemura called Texture Wave Dry Finishing Spray just at the ends of the curls and a finishing spray all over so that the look will hold for the next week days.
Angled Bob

How would you describe this look?
This is an elongated angled bob style for black ladies with style. One side (pictured) is longer for a dramatic effect. This is a custom unit I handmade and colored jet black per client’s request. This style is sleek, sexy, and has lots of movement. The most gorgeous things about this look are the precise cutting and movement in the bob.
Any advice for someone considering it?
I think this cut/style can go for any face shape with small modifications (i.e. oblong face shape would be shorter, rounder face shape can be longer). This hairstyle is low maintenance and perfect for anyone looking for something classy yet sexy.
Blunt Bob

How would you describe this look?
I love this blunt bob because it gives off a sexy, sleek, grown black woman style! I wanted to make sure she had a great color that would fit her skin tone as well as a style that would complement her face!
What I like most about this look has to be the versatility you can do with the style. You can go from a sleek straight look to messy curls on the same day!
Any advice for someone considering it?
Make sure the style is for you! Are you going to be able to take care of this style? Do you feel like style will compliment you? Is it going to be easy for you to maintain? Are you going to use the products I would like for you to use in-between visits? It’s really good for clients to know the difference between the cute picture of the hairstyle they show the stylist, versus the reality of taking care of the style they’ve chosen!
