The Graduated Bob

How would you describe this look?
This is a modern-day bob with easy maintenance, and the layers really complement this look. The shape coming into the back of the neck sets the look off with the length being longer round the front. It really shapes the face, and as the hair is thick, the shape takes a lot of weight out to reduce drying time and makes it easier to style at home.
My favorite product is the Revlon 10-in-1 spray that acts as a leave-in conditioner and helps reduce humidity. It smoothens the hair and makes it last longer. I finish off with the Wella reflections oil to add smoothness and shine.
Any advice for someone considering it?
As the hair can’t be tied up, you do need time in the morning to be able to style the hair. Blow-dry and straighten it. It’s not practical for women with a busy lifestyle, although once done, it looks amazing.

How would you describe this look?
This look is a short textured bob. It’s a great haircut and style for any woman over 50 wanting to grow out a pixie cut or just wants a change but doesn’t want to go too short. What I love about this look is the versatility in styling options and how a shorter style like this can bring out personality and confidence!
Any advice for someone considering it?
For clients considering this bob style, it’s a great way to make a statement while still being soft and professional! It’s great for anyone with fine to medium hair types and clients who love playing with visual texture in their haircuts.
I recommend using styling products like spray wax, texture spray, or a volumizing spray or cream! You can apply a volumizing product and blow dry for soft volume or add some texture with flat iron curls and use a spray wax for that beachy look! With simple steps, this style is versatile, easy, and fun!

How would you describe this look?
This bob cut is sleek, timeless, and very easy to style.
This is always a great go-to cut when you just don’t know what to do with your hair anymore. It’s virtually effortless to style (if cut right to the client’s texture and wave pattern if there is any).
Also, make sure you do your homework about the stylist cutting this because they are quite challenging.
Any advice for someone considering it?
I often do this bob cut on women who live a very active lifestyle whether it be new moms or moms with young children, women who like to wash and go, women who love to work out a lot or spend a lot of time outdoors, and most of all something simple but looks like a million dollars.
Depending on your hair type, I like to blow dry with a bit of a root booster, and my personal favorite is Redken’s velvet gelatine!
