If you are new to the bob hairstyle community, this is a great bob style for you to start with. Aubrey Plaza is showing us an easy style for you to do at home. All you are going to need is a hairdryer, rolling brushes to create the style, and some hairspray to lock in this look. The proper bangs are a terrific stylistic tool that may cover or enhance certain of your face characteristics while emphasizing others. For instance, bangs can work wonders to draw attention to your eyes. Choose thin, wispy bangs that sit straight down or to the side if you want to draw attention to your stunning eyes. Finally, the parting down the middle allows your bangs and hair to fall evenly around your eye and cheekbone area.
A brown smoky eye with a color on your lower lash line can draw attention to and lengthen your eyes when it comes to your makeup application. or even very little to no eye and pink lip shadow for a soft glam appearance. Just keep in mind that this hairstyle emphasizes your forehead more, so to give your face lovely depth, contour your forehead and add blush to the center of each cheek.

Styling Steps
1. Part the Middle
Using the corner of your comb and standing in front of a mirror find the middle of your nose 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 middle part. A middle part is a great way to make small, round face shapes appear longer and thinner.
2. Blow-dry Straight Back
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.
3. Blow-dry Straight on the Sides
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.
4. Blow-dry Bangs Forward to the Left
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.
5. Blow-dry Bangs Forward to the Right
When blow-drying your bangs to the side, section your hair up and clip your hair back to leave only your bangs out. Remember to make sure that your bangs are damp to make blow-drying more effective. Next, take your brush and place it underneath the hair and then blow-dry starting from the roots, adding tension to the hair as you go. Slowly pull your section down to the ends and continue until dry.
6. Apply Hairspray
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.
