Short Straight Light Blonde Bob Haircut with Side Swept Bangs


Added: 19 Mar 2017
This bob haircut is blow-straightened perfectly to smooth down the top while turning the ends slightly under for a fabulous finish. The long bangs are worn down across the forehead to frame the eyes and complete the overall look brilliantly. Regular trims are needed to maintain this hairstyle.

Our model looks flawless here in a chic and timeless bob. This cut is ideal for showing off her expressive facial features, especially her eyes and mouth. The side-swept bangs provides her face with a nice frame while the rest of her hair maintains a smooth, sculpted shape that dusts just above her shoulders. The blunt ends give her locks a healthy looking appearance and keeps her hair looking thick. This 'do has lots of movement to it and works with both casual and formal attire.

Our model looks fabulous here in a sleek, chic bob that has a gorgeous platinum color going on. Having a warm, fair skin tone and light eyes, this hair color is ideal for her coloring and brings out her best features. To keep the color looking fresh, regular toning treatments are needed to banish brassy tones.

step 1

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 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

To blow-dry under, start at the nape/back and place your brush under the section of hair close to the nape. With the dryer held up over the hair, pull the brush from the roots and continue to the mid length's, keeping the blow-dryer following over the top. Once you reach the ends, curve them under. Repeat this step until the section is completely dry.


step 4

To blow-dry the sides, take out a small section of hair from the front and clip the rest of the hair away. Next, place the brush under the section and then pull the brush and hair forward around your face (this curving motion creates body). Place the hair-dryer on top of the brush until you reach the ends and then turn the ends under. Repeat until dry.


step 5

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 6

To blow-dry your bangs to the side, clip the back and side sections up, leaving just your bangs out. Place your brush beneath your bangs, holding your hair to the side and remembering to hold the tension between your hair and brush. With your blow-dryer on a low setting, apply heat by starting at the roots and make sure to stretch your hair out to the ends. Repeat until your hair is dry.


step 7

Apply wax to your fingertips then drag through your bangs, sweeping the hair to the right as you go. Pinching the ends will create soft texture.


step 8

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.
