Straight Mocha Shoulder-Length Asymmetrical Bob Haircut


Added: 20 Jan 2011
Everyone should have a bob haircut at some stage. This asymmetrical 'do is the perfect example of a classic piece that will always stay in style. It is a classic bob haircut with straight side-swept bangs that frame your face and sets off your face shape. It is a very flattering bob with extended locks and all kinds of asymmetrical cuts and beautiful highlights. The model in this hairdo is effortlessly cool and looks gorgeous simultaneously. For the styling, this asymmetric bob haircut is cut to the jaw-line on one side and angled down below the jaw-line on the other to form this brilliant shape best suited for the brave and those with fine to medium hair. This mocha color haircut will complement any woman with its asymmetrical bob length, yet the subtle makeup and soft pink lips maximize this cut. It is a perfect hairstyle for women with oval faces. Long straight bangs and a side-swept fringe create a low-maintenance look. This asymmetrical bob haircut also works well for women with wider faces who want to show off their broad bone structure.

This look will require regular trims every 4-6 weeks to maintain shape and style. The style is best suited for medium to long hair but can be trimmed into a bob when needed. It has a moderate density and low shine, with rocker ends that make it easy to manage. Apply a small amount of smoothing shine to your top sections for shine and hold.

step 1

Apply a small amount of hair moisturizer to the palm of your hand and distribute it evenly through the mid-lengths and the ends. Moisturizer will help your hair to maintain good condition and protect your strands from heat as you style.


step 2

A medium radial brush is used on medium to long hair types to smooth out wavy or curly hair textures or to add body to straight hair. When selecting a radial brush, always use one with a pure bristle as this will not tear or damage the hair.


step 3

Using your brush, blow-dry in small sections starting from the nape/back. Tilting your head forward, place the brush an inch below the roots to hold them taut and aim the dryer above the brush for a few seconds before continuing to the ends.


step 4

Using your brush, blow-dry in small sections starting from the sides. Tilting your head forward, place the brush an inch below the roots to hold them taut and aim the dryer above the brush for a few seconds before continuing to the ends. Repeat this step on a new section directly above the dry one.


step 5

Take a section of your hair no wider than the diameter of your brush. Place your brush under and at the roots of your section. Then with your blow-dryer above, drag the brush up through the mid-lengths and ends of the hair following with your blow-dryer and pulling the hair to the left. Repeat until your hair is completely dry.


step 6

Apply a very small amount of smoothing shine to the palms of your hands and then run it through the mid-lengths and ends of your hair. Be careful not to add any to the roots or a large amount to any section of the hair as smoothing shine can be very heavy on the hair, weighing it down and making it appear oily.


step 7

To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
