Edgy celebrity bobs are all the rage right now. Jennifer Aniston has been credited with starting the bob fad in the 90’s, and the style has changed through the years and morphed into an edgy, bold, and trendy look. From Victoria “Posh” Beckham’s spiky locks to Katie Holmes’ fun and flirty look, crisp and clean-cut edgy celebrity bob hairstyles can be worn a number of ways to flatter any face.
Many people don’t know how to get an edgy bob hairstyle, as the options are numerous and it’s difficult to explain to a hairstylist exactly what look you are going for. Length, cut, and color can vary. Some edgy celebrity bob hairstyles are angled forward whereas some are blunt cut. Some are layered and some have cute bangs to frame the face. A good hairstylist can recommend the best style for your face as well as the best color and highlights to accent your eye color and skin tone.
Before going into a salon to get your hair cut into such a dramatic new style, make sure that you are going to a good hairstylist who will listen to you and give you exactly the cut you’re looking for. If you are unhappy with your current stylist or don’t have one, ask friends for recommendations or look on Yelp or CitySearch to find a good stylist in your area. Don’t walk into a salon without an appointment with a specific stylist that you know has a good reputation.
The best way to get the edgy celebrity bob hairstyle that you’re looking for is to take a photo of exactly what you’re looking for. Browse on celebrity hairstyle sites to find a photo of the celebrity who has the style you’re looking for. Beautiful Hairstyles has an extensive gallery of edgy celebrity bob hairstyles in a variety of lengths, shades and styles. When browsing to find the bob cut your want, consider your face shape. Styles that look good on a petite face may no necessarily look goo on a larger face, and cuts that flatter a heart or oval shape may not particularly look good on someone with a round or square face shape.
Communicate with your hairstylist throughout the process to ensure that you get the exact hairstyle you want. If you want modifications made when the hairstylist is done, go ahead and let your hairstylist know so that he or she can make the changes then and there.
Ask your hairstylist for tips regarding styling techniques and products that you’ll need to reproduce the look at home so that you can have a fabulous edgy celebrity bob hairstyle every day. Edgy bob styles can be difficult to style every day, usually requiring daily washing and blow drying, and occasionally requiring straightening or curling under. Styling products can help add sheen and smooth flyaways. Hair waxing products are particularly good at adding definition to blunt-cut or spiky layers, and your hairstylist can recommend the best products for your particular cut.
