Key Benefits
The cut creates fantastic volume and shape.
The "glass" finish is ultra-modern.
The black color is deep and dramatic.
A powerful and sophisticated look.
Highlights the angle of the cut.
Common Misconceptions
That all bobs are flat.
How to ask your stylist for this style
Ask for a "stacked, graduated bob." For the color, request a "high-shine, single process 'Ink Black' with a 'Glass Hair' glossing service."
Tools:
Choosing Products
A professional glossing service; a volumizing mousse; a round brush; a sulfate-free shampoo for the color.
Step by step instructions to achieve style at home
To style, use a round brush to enhance the volume of the stacked layers in the back, while keeping the front smooth and sleek to show off the shine.
Caring for your hair
The cut requires trims every 6-8 weeks to maintain the stacked shape.
The color is low-maintenance but needs a gloss treatment every 2-3 months for the extreme shine.
