1. The Bob …

Precision cut bobs are huge this year, coupled with smooth, sleek styling, a blunt fringe and heaps of shine. Your bob should be carefully crafted to accentuate your unique facial structure, or highlight a long, beautiful neck.

Bob hair styles range from ear level to shoulder skimming and are best for straight or slightly wavy hair.

Eva Longoria opted for a classic elegant bob.

And Reese Witherspoon’s went for a 50-s inspired wavy bob for the “Four Christmases” Movie Premier in LA.

And if you’re feeling a little more groovy… incorporate a mod feel into your bob, just like gorgeous Gwyneth Paltrow did!

BTW,bangs go great with bobs, but only opt for the bangs if it works with your facial structure.

And if you are still questioning this hair style, just remember that fashion icon and Vogue’s editor-in-chief Anna Wintour also wears a classic bob, and who knows fashion and style better than her! BTW, editors-in-chief of French and Russian Vogues also opted for this glamourous hair style!

2. Long and Wavy …

Long and wavy hair style is The Hair Style of 2009. Spring-Summer 09 fashion shows were full of tall stunners with gorgeous long wavy hair. And most importantly, this year the waves should look as natural as possible!

Hair color can have a dramatic effect on an otherwise plain hair style. Rich natural brown colors are ultra-hot this year. Deep tones of chocolate or red tones are a great compliment to a dark brown or black hair color.

Natural colors of blonde and natural red are big as well. Strategically placed highlights, lowlights, or panels can accentuate texture and add tons of character to your style. Compliment your features and skin tone, and add an edge to your haircut with some artful hair coloring.
