 
Bob Hair Style
The bob hair style dates back
to the 1920's and a famous dancer and 'silent screen' actress named
Louise Brooks. It was shocking then (on purpose).
It's a mainstay and quite ordinary today (ironically).
As short hair
styles go, the bob is probably the most prolific. It's also
among the most versatile. Women can fashion a bob cut from
straight hair, wavy hair, curly hair, thick hair, thin hair... you name
it!
Interestingly,
as the bob style has evolved over the past 90 years, the original 'Page
boy' style never really went away. It has been adapted and
modified, but every now and then a famous actress will give the classic
bob hair style new life.
In recent
years, celebrities like Eva Longoria, Jessica Alba, Anne Hathaway, and
Katie Holmes have all sported stunning bobs. Public reaction
to these style changes has been almost universally positive and
appreciative.
Probably the
most appealing aspect of the bob - at least from an aesthetic
standpoint - is how it accentuates facial features. A bob
style focuses the eyes on the center of the face. This works
to great effect for most famous people, but can be a reason to avoid
wearing a bob haircut if you wish to cover up any facial flaws (real or
perceived).
If you've never
tried a bob cut before, it's usually best to start off
conservatively. Get a medium-length inverted bob
first. If you like the look and nothing really jumps out at
you in the mirror, you should be good to take a deeper plunge and get a
shorter bob style on the next visit to your favorite salon.
Just remember -
there's not much you can do to make your hair grow out
faster! Think with your head and don't let your excitement
get the better of you.
As always, your
best bet is to enlist the advice of a trusted hair stylist before you
go with any version of the bob hair style. Ask him/her to be
bluntly honest. Better to be told what you don't want to hear
than to be saddled with a very short haircut like a bob and no recourse
but to wait for it to grow out.
