For a sleek style, a leave in conditioner and Aveda Light Elements Smoothing Fluid are layered onto the wet hair. Using a Mason Pearson brush the hair is wrap dried around the shape of the head to create fullness and movement. Once dry, a light emollient is applied over the surface to control flyaways and create sheen.

This classic mid length bob has been neatly parted to one side and rolled under slightly at the ends.
Get The Look: Apply styling lotion or smoothing serum on damp hair (depending on hair type) and blow dry sections with a round brush.
Aseries of rich caramel blondes was created with a warmer hue all over. Working in harmony with her cut, the color is very dimensional with a “calico” sort of feel.
This shorter razored style is a modern take on a classic bob. It has been undercut for roundness and features a heavy blunt bang (fringe). Longer disconnected sections on top were razor cut for the maximum in texture.
A slight curl adds movement through these longer layers.
Get The Look: Mist thermal setting spray from the scalp to the ends of dry hair. Taking different size sections, spiral curl all over with a large barreled iron. Once the entire head is done, flip head upside down, and lightly finger tousled the curls with a bit of pomade. After flipping upright again, add shine spray over the surface.

Thin slices of deep berry tones add richness to this long fringy layers.
Get The Look: Blow dry hair straight using a large round brush. Starting in the nape and working forward, take 1/4-inch partings of dry hair and spray with straightening starch and shine spray, and flat iron each section. Smooth the surface with your fingers and shine finishing pomade and then mist shine spray to add luster.
This very precise blunt, chin length bob has asymmetric long layers, a boldly colored disconnected piece in front and an oh-so-sleek finish.
Get The Look: Mix straightening balm with a lightweight styling paste and apply to damp hair starting in the nape and working through the ends. Spray the root with thermal styling spray and blow dry hair using a round brush for volume and roundness. Once dry, mist shine spray for added luster.
Heavily layered this shoulder length cut shows off a luscious milk chocolate brown hue with rich and eye-emphasizing caramel coniac fringe.
To create a sleek style, the hair was flat-wrapped while blow-drying to coax a rounded flavor. Once dry, the strands were flat ironed and pieced lightly with styling paste.

An A-line bob with shattered layers in back that taper slightly as they move toward the face.
To style, a root boost is applied throughout the crown and Biosilk through the ends before rough-drying the hair. Once completely dry, the length is flat ironed tapping the underneath slightly upward and out to hug around the face. Shine spray gives the perfect finish.
