The bob hair style - an absolute classic  - and lets face it most of us have had a bob shaped hair cut at some point in our lives. THe cut can range from the classic Louise Brrookes version to a softer more forgiving version as seen on Victoria Beckham pre pixie cut and Meg Ryan.

A bob hair style can be worn at chin, shoulder or slightly longer and clever use of colour will enhance the cut and texture of the version you go for. For example if you can carry off the sharp Mary Quant style bob a glossy head of colour such a chocolate brown or bright ash blonde will look fabulous. Where as if you go for something more textured and choppy get your stylist to weave some high or low lights  - depending on your base colour to give the hear depth and texture.

My own bob hair style is changing and evolving at the moment I was sporting a full fringe (bangs for those of you Stateside) with the length sitting just below my ears  - now its hitting my shoulders  the fringe is swept to one side and the its all a bit mussy in texture (aided and abetted by many a  styling product) and I have had lots of caramel high lights woven through. But you see thats what I love about the bob hair style it lends itself really well to being adapted when you (like I have done ) decide to grow your hair - keep the pain barrier to a minimum.

So ladies my advise get your self a bob hair cut on your next visit to the salon - just flip through some style magazines and hunt out the shape and length that works for you.
