This short copper bob is cut to sit at the jaw-line in a solid line with the bangs jagged cut to fall naturally on the face to soften the over-all style. This is a simple look that needs only a little product to style and regular trims every 4-6 weeks to maintain shape and prevent split ends.

Ellen looks gorgeous in copper hair color. Here, her hair is shoulder-length and wavy but it's her color that really warms up her face. Her skin has a gorgeous peaches and cream complexion with this shade and her green eyes become even more prominent. The medium to long layers cut around the back and sides enhance the bounce and movement of the waves through the mid-lengths to ends. This gives the over-all style plenty of shape and softness. This hairstyle will be great for those with fine to medium hair.

Ellen's hair looked great at the 21st Annual American Cinematheque Award Honoring George Clooney styled into this sassy concave bob with a side-swept fringe in a champagne blonde shade with golden lowlights. The hair at her nape area was cut at a short length and each side was cut to graduate to a longer length as it blends towards her front section. Overall, the color looks great with her skin tone and green eyes. The blonde looks natural due to the highlights, although the gold could be toned down a bit. The wheaty blonde highlights look good with her tanned complexion and light pink lippie. This is a great hairstyle which needs to be styled each day to achieve this sassy finish.
