Description

Here is a classic pageboy bob with a modern twist that brings all of the focus to the face. This 'do is ideal for straight, fine hair. This is a simple style that doesn't have too many steps so it'll be easy and quick to do at home. Regular trims are needed to keep this hairstyle's shape.

Our model looks gorgeous here in a classic pageboy bob haircut that makes the most of her hair's naturally fine texture and her facial features. Having an oval face shape with large eyes and lips, our model is well-suited to this chin length bob. This 'do works with her naturally fine hair texture nicely and creates the perfect frame for her face, thanks to the jagged layering and edges throughout. The razored ends gives her hair a light and airy look with some swing throughout the ends while the fringe gives her a sexy peek-a-boo effect. This is a chic and modern look for women who like hairstyles that are easy to do and have a timeless look to them.

Our model has a warm complexion with yellow/gold undertones and light blue eyes. This makes her well-suited to golden brunette and blonde tones of hair the best. Here, she is flaunting a light golden blonde shade that highlights her eyes and warm complexion.Subtle wheat blonde highlights throughout give her 'do a natural looking finish. This combo is a good choice for her hairstyle that makes her hair appear shiny and healthy.

Styling Steps


1. Apply Gel Spray to Roots

step 1

Hold the gel spray no closer than 3 inches from your hair and then evenly mist the gel spray into the roots to create a stronger hold style. Gel spray will hold well and will not look wet or weigh the hair down. Using your gel spray in this fashion will create added hold and a longer lasting style.


2. Part the Middle

step 2

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.


3. Use a Medium Radial Brush

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.


4. Blow-dry the Crown

step 4

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.


5. Blow-dry the Back Under

step 5

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.


6. Blow-dry the Sides Under

step 6

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.


7. Blow-dry the Top Back

step 7

Starting just above the crown take a section of your hair that is the same diameter as the brush. Place your brush underneath and at the roots of your section and then with your blow-dryer in front, drag the brush up and then turn it under when you reach the ends.


8. Blow-dry Bangs Forward

step 8

When blow-drying your bangs forward, clip your hair back leaving only your bangs out. Position your bangs evenly in your brush, taking the hair in a forward direction. Blow-dry from roots to ends, keeping the tension consistent, and evenly distribute heat over the whole section of hair that you are working on. Repeat until the hair is dry. This will stop any frizz that may occur.


9. Tease Hair

step 9

Pick up a small selection of hair from your mid section no bigger than your tail comb. Place your comb at the roots and then comb up and down until the hair is standing up by itself. Continue to the crown and finish at the sides. Repeat this step if you require more volume.


10. Style Hair Down at the Back Using Moulding Cream

step 10

Apply some moulding cream to your fingertips and then pull it through the ends of your hair in a downward motion to achieve a textured look.


11. Style Sides Down Using Moulding Cream

step 11

Using a small amount of moulding cream, work it through the mid-lengths and ends in a downward motion. For added texture, pinch the ends as you go sparingly.


12. Style Bangs Forward Using Moulding Cream

step 12

Apply a small amount of moulding cream to your fingertips and then using your fingers, rake through your bangs to the ends for hold and texture.


13. Apply Hairspray

step 13

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.
