Ask for a "chin-length French bob." For color, request a "cool-toned, ashy, multi-tonal Mushroom Brown," emphasizing that you want to avoid all warmth.
Tools:
Choosing Products
A sulfate-free shampoo; a blue toning shampoo to keep the color ashy; a leave-in cream for air-drying.
Step by step instructions to achieve style at home
Style the French bob by letting it air-dry for that authentic, lived-in feel.
Keep the color cool by using a blue toning shampoo once every 1-2 weeks.
Caring for your hair
A sharp French bob requires trims every 6-8 weeks to keep its line.
