Features and varieties
Long bob is shown by celebrities from the world of show business, including Emma Watson and Kim Kardashian, Miranda Kerr and Jennifer Lopez, Cara Delevingne and others. What made public figures focus on this particular proposal?
It fits easily, which is an indisputable plus for busy individuals. On its basis, beautiful evening and everyday looks are created. Combines with many dyeing techniques such as ombre and sombre, Californian and Venetian highlights, 3D painting and a modern approach called babylights.
He reminds many of the well-known square, however, there are still a number of significant differences in the technique of performance. In the sample we are considering, there are clear cut lines, the strands at the temples are slightly longer than the rest, and in the occipital region, the situation is the opposite - the hair is cut short. Also, in the bob format, graduation and layering sometimes appear, these nuances allow you to create an excellent image that is combined with the natural characteristics of each girl.
As for the square, it has strict geometry and thick straightened bangs. Hair stylists managed to combine two favorite women's hairstyles into a single whole, so the light came out bob car.
In the coming season, the following types of long bob design are in fashion:
- smooth transition to long front strands;
- straight or obliquely laid bangs;
- with torn edges;
- with a clear cut line.
Advice! A medium bean can become a true salvation for the owners of parched, split ends. Graduation together with layering will allow you to forget about the problem. Too thick hair will acquire unprecedented lightness and airiness with the help of thinning scissors. The same tool will help tough strands to become more pliable and obedient.
We select an option in accordance with facial features
As it has been said many times in previous articles, any transformation should appeal to the shape of the face and features of appearance. In order not to miscalculate when choosing the type of haircut, consider the following points:
- short samples are suitable for women with a thin neck and neat features;
- the spherical shape helps to hide wide cheekbones and makes the appearance softer and more feminine;
- asymmetry with strict cut lines emphasizes the exquisite elegance of a business woman;
- graduation distracts attention from the wide lower part of the face;
- bob-square on a leg gives the appearance of daring sexuality;
- Framing the front strands narrows the face, while curly curls make the look playful and romantic.
It is quite difficult for chubby beauties to choose a hairstyle that would transform the shape of the face, visually bringing it closer to the oval. However, a close relative of the square easily copes with this, draws out the outline of the circle and smoothes chubby cheeks. The side parting also plays into the hands. If you twist the strands, choose the outward direction, or leave them straight.
Advice! Any hairdressing techniques are acceptable to the ideal oval: rags, thinning, curls and straightened skeins. The bangs are able to emphasize the neat chin, and the long folds in the temporal region highlight the cheekbones and sensual lips.
A rough square needs additional volume, and if you choose ladder - it will smooth out sharp corners. And light waves will take over attention, distracting the gaze from the double chin. Curls will add to the look of deliberate negligence, as if they were living their own life. Curly hair looks better without bangs.
Asymmetry, in turn, will distract your eyes from a large nose and a massive chin. This displacement effect skillfully takes over all directed gaze, and minor flaws fade into the background.
Main trends of the current year
We propose to analyze in more detail the trends of the upcoming season and get acquainted with the main features of each of them.
With a bang
Bangs have not gone out of popularity for several years in a row. For example, smooth is combined with straight strands. For ball-like, ruffled or cascading shapes, a stepped, torn, stepped or falling to the side.
However, her selection should also come from the shape of the face. Oblique adorns chubby beauties. If the chin is elongated, stop at the option with straight edges. For ideal proportions, any manifestation is permissible, however, with the slightest imbalance, stylists recommend giving preference to asymmetry. Large features will be smoothed out by a thick bang to the eyebrows.
It is harmoniously combined with a long bob trimmed with feathers, as the additional volume in the cheekbones balances the proportions. The curved shape gives softness to the appearance, and the curly cutouts give the owner a certain zest.
Girls with neat features and a short-cropped neck can afford flashy jewelry and neck jewelry.A short bang will suit them, which is in harmony exclusively with miniature beauties.
Advice! When choosing such a hairstyle, you do not need to rack your brains about what kind of styling to choose for a romantic date. The long bob itself adds softness and charm to the look.
With waves and ruffled edges
Women's mood directly depends on how she looks at the moment. Wonderful hairstyle, excellent makeup, nails on hands and feet in a well-groomed condition - what could be better? Out of nowhere comes inner confidence and an inexhaustible supply of energy.
Curls, curls, curls and tousled strands add playfulness and charm to the look. It becomes easier for the girl to breathe, there is a feeling of spread wings.
Advice! Due to its ease and playfulness, the jerk has a "rejuvenating" effect. Ladies over 40 will not only feel younger, others will also think so.
With extended front strands
The long strands framing the face serve not only to correct the features of the appearance - it is also a striking feature that allows you not to part with chic hairs that can reach the shoulder line and even lower. The optimal bevel angle, on the advice of stylists, should be parallel to the cheekbone line.
The same hairstyle can look different depending on the styling method:
- for a walk, arrange an oblique or zigzag parting, and leave the ends free to fall off. For active pastime, pinning with hairpins is welcome;
- for special occasions, create large or medium curls, arrange additional volume on the crown of the head. A laconic accessory will add conviviality to the look;
- for creative people who avoid dullness and boredom, stylists offer to arrange a deliberate mess on their heads. To do this, the strands are "whipped" by hand and laid out in an arbitrary direction. The ends are fixed with a small amount of varnish.
Advantages of a haircut
In summary, I would like to highlight the main advantages that an elongated bob gives:
- Practicality. Long bob is not exactly a simple hairstyle, its creation requires high qualifications from the hairdresser. After all, in addition to honed skill, he must choose the correct cut angle, know how much it is required to open the back of the head of a particular client. But a properly done haircut requires a minimum of caring actions and takes very little time for styling;
- Versatility. In continuation of the previous point, I will say that an experienced master can easily find an approach to any hair structure, master thick and hard, as well as very rare ones. Will select the shape for the type of face and outstanding features of the appearance;
- Variety of offers. There are no clear restrictions on the shape, length or symmetry, any options are permissible, selected according to the design features of a woman;
- Convenience. For a rather long period of time, the hairstyle retains its original appearance, which is very convenient with a busy rhythm of life;
- Corrective function.Long bob is able to visually hide some of the flaws in appearance and present advantages from the advantageous side. But again, it all depends on the skill of the stylist-hairdresser;
- Manifestations of individuality. Each owner has the right to choose her own styling style - wrapping curls or even sashes, collecting in a tail or pinning with hairpins, creating a fleece - there are a lot of options, you just have to show your imagination;
- Relevance at all times. Bean variations have remained in popularity for decades, and yet none of them seem outdated and boring. The classic form has slightly changed, enriched with additional details, but the idea remains the same;
- An interesting look with any type of headwear. Long front curls gracefully protrude beyond the hat, which enriches the image, makes it more mysterious and sexy.
Advice! If you need to remove your hair, try one of the braiding techniques. French braids, spikelets and waterfalls wonderfully cope with strands of different levels. If the back of the head is very short, you shouldn't touch it at all.
