Natural Golden Brown Bob Haircut With Copper And Blonde Highlights


Added: 25 Sep 2017
Layered ends and waves encourage movement and body in this chic jaw-length Bob haircut that is ideal for fine to medium hair. This classic 'do is perfect to complement an oval or oblong face and needs product throughout -especially at the sides- to create this voluminous look and feel.

Our model is sporting a cool wavy Bob here that has a fabulous finish to it. This hairstyle looks great on her oblong face shape and is ideal for her low, rounded hairline and fine locks. This Bob gives our model oodles of volume at the sides and has tons of bounce throughout to balance out her predominantly vertical face shape. Ladies with a slightly wavy hair texture like hers will benefit from this hairstyle that makes the hair less bulky thanks to the layers throughout and encourages movement. She has gone with a side part here that works well with her low forehead, and allows her grown out bangs to cascade nicely around her cheekbones.

Our model's color is another stand out feature of this 'do. Her natural golden brown base color has been highlighted through the lengths and ends with bold copper and blonde tones and a hint of red throughout. Overall this maintains her natural hair color but with added warmth and dimension to it. This dynamic hair hue looks lovely with her fair, cool complexion and amber eyes. This is an excellent color technique for ladies with fine hair who want to add the appearance of thickness to it.

step 1

Apply styling mousse to damp hair, using your palm as a measuring guide, and evenly distribute it along the hair shaft. Styling mousse will add hold and can help achieve better results.


step 2

Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your left eye and then drag the comb straight up slowly until you reach your hairline and then continue back in a straight manner to achieve an even left part. A side part is great for longer face shapes because it creates the illusion of width.


step 3

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 4

Starting at the nape/back of the hair, place your brush on top of the section and blow-dryer down starting from the roots and using tension as you go. Next, place the blow-dryer underneath the hair and continue to blow-dry the ends out. Make sure to follow the brush with the blow-dryer in an outwards direction. If you like fuller flicks, hold the ends out and roll them up into the brush and apply the heat for longer.


step 5

To blow-dry the sides, take out your first sections from the front and clip the rest of the hair up. Place your brush on top of the section, and starting from the roots, blow-dry down using tension as you go. Next, place the blow-dryer underneath the hair and continue to blow-dry the ends out. Continue this step until the hair is dry.


step 6

To blow-dry the crown/top sections, take a section of hair no bigger than the diameter of the brush and blow-dry the hair placing the brush under the section of hair. With your blow-dryer in front of the brush, follow the brush in an upwards direction at the roots and an outwards position at the ends for volume and softness. Continue until the section is dry.


step 7

Take a section of your hair from your ear to your temple that is the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush on top of the hair starting at the roots and pull the hair slowly in an outwards direction with your blow-dryer following in front. Repeat this step and then once the roots are dry, drag the brush to the mid-lengths and then slowly turn the brush in an inwards direction, flicking it through the ends.


step 8

Take a section of your hair from your ear to your temple that is the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush on top of the hair starting at the roots and pull the hair slowly in an outwards direction with your blow-dryer following in front. Repeat this step and then once the roots are dry, drag the brush to the mid-lengths and then slowly turn the brush in an inwards direction, flicking it through the ends.


step 9

Take a small section of hair and place the ends at the base of your curling iron barrel and then wrap the hair up around the barrel until you reach your mid-lengths. Hold the hair for 5 to 10 seconds and then release the hair by unwinding the strands backwards.


step 10

Apply your wax to the ends of your hair and then lightly pinch and scrunch the hair before allowing your wax to set.


step 11

Apply a small amount of wax to your fingertips and then lightly piece and pinch the ends of your hair.


step 12

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.
