Straight bob without bangs: features and subtleties of styling

In the life of every woman there comes a moment when she is ready to radically change her image. And more often than not, all changes begin with a new haircut. One of the most elegant and stylish hairstyles has been the "square" for many years. Soft lines or ragged edges, leggy or asymmetrical, this type of haircut can be done in many different ways, and each one has its own characteristics. One of the simplest, but at the same time spectacular options is the classic elongated "square" without bangs.

Despite the outward simplicity and brevity, such a hairstyle requires accuracy and considerable professionalism during creation.

In this case, the color of the hair does not really matter. "Kare" is suitable for blondes, and fair-haired, and red-haired, and in particular, dark-haired women of almost any age. Often, hair can be of several shades, have complex coloring or highlights. However, one-color coloring without sharp transitions and shades is considered classic for such a hairstyle.

Each haircut has its pros and cons, and the elongated "bob" without bangs is no exception. Among its advantages are the following points.

• Simplicity of styling. Unlike complex cascading haircuts with different hair lengths or bangs, hair of the same length is quite easy to style.For this, a large round comb (brushing) and any styling product suitable for the hair structure are enough.
• Suitable for all hair types. Of course, each type has its own characteristics, for example, wavy hair is different from those that curl with small curls or straight ones. However, in contrast to more complex short haircuts, almost all women can afford "square" hair.
• Rare correction. A simple haircut does not require frequent visits to the salon for correction and even more styling. Depending on the rate of hair growth, it is enough to visit a professional master a couple of times a quarter in order to trim the ends. And simple styling can be easily done with your own hands, even without special skills.
• Convenience in growing. This haircut is perfect for those who currently have a layered ragged hairstyle and want to grow long hair of the same length. It is enough to visit a professional once and make a "square" without a bang, and then forget about visiting the salon for a long time. And in order for the hair to grow even faster and become healthier and stronger, you can make special masks and use gentle styling products.
• Correction of facial features. A correctly chosen "square" can turn even an average woman into a wonderful stranger. It is enough to choose the right length and shape to visually reduce the nose, raise the cheekbones or soften the jawline. Before heading to the salon, you can try various options in a special online program by uploading your photo. If this is not possible, it is better to consult with a professional in the salon itself - he will tell you which "square" is most suitable for a certain type.
• Versatility. "Kare" is a rather versatile hairstyle. It is perfect for everyday wear in an office dress code, and for a festive event. In contrast to the short, elongated "square" is convenient to pick up in the tail with a regular elastic band or hair clip. This will prevent strands from falling on your face during homework or computer work.

With all its advantages, the classic elongated "square" without bangs is not devoid of significant drawbacks.

• Control over the freshness of the hairstyle. The shorter the hair is cut, the faster it becomes greasy and messy. Most often this is due to the fact that short hair is often touched with hands to freshen up the hairstyle or correct stray strands. This means that the hair will have to be washed and styled daily. It will not work to give up such a morning pastime in favor of additional minutes of sleep, because short hair cannot be hidden in a bun or braid.
• Few hairstyle options. Unlike long hair, the "bob" cannot be raised in a high tail, made large and lush curls or combed smoothly into a large bun. In fact, styling is limited to only two options: straightened and curled hair. All the rest of the variety will concern only the degree of straightening, giving volume at the roots and the size of the curls when curling.
• Inability to wear a hat. Just laid "square" easily wrinkles and deforms even with the thinnest cap. Unfortunately, in winter you will have to choose between convenience or beauty. To combine both options, you can purchase a jacket or fur coat with a voluminous hood that will protect you from the cold, and at the same time will not press your hair so hard. Or you can carry a small straightening or curling iron in your purse and tweak your hair when you come to work or visit.
• Care costs. Since a short haircut involves daily washing and styling, hair is too often exposed to active shampoos, styling products and straightening or curling tools. Drying your hair daily also does not add health and shine to your hair.To minimize the negative consequences of such effects, it is necessary to purchase and regularly use special care masks, balms and sprays that protect and restore the hair structure.

Despite the fact that the elongated "square" is great for many women, there are some features of the face and hair, in which you should not stop your choice on this particular option. The main rule in choosing a hairstyle is honesty and self-criticism. If a girl has too thin thin hair or an elongated face with a thin nose and a sharp chin, the elongated "bob" will further stretch and narrow it, and the hair will look dirty and licked.

Ladies whose neck is far from swan should also avoid this option. In addition, women who prefer an extra half hour of sleep to a beautiful hairstyle will find their image in longer haircuts. It is easy to pick them up in a bun or tail in the event that there is no desire and time for styling.

The elongated "square" is perfect for owners of hair of medium and high density.

Several years ago, owners of tight curls were strongly discouraged from cutting their hair under the "bob", as it was too difficult to style them. Only the owners of naturally straight hair could boast of graphic strict hairstyles. Today, a hair iron is in the purse of any fashionista, and therefore even the most curly hair can be easily straightened and styled with a single shiny cloth.

The only face shape that the elongated "square" does not fit at all is the elongated oval. For all other forms, such a haircut will help to emphasize the merits and hide the flaws.

• Round face such a hairstyle will visually stretch, hide large cheeks and the absence of cheekbones.

• Square face "Square" will soften and balance. The wide jaw in this version will be covered with hair, so the image will look softer.

• Triangular face an elongated "square" is suitable if it is styled in an asymmetrical hairstyle. It is better to do the parting obliquely, and cover a wide forehead with part of the hair and balance it with a narrow chin.

• To the oval face a non-elongated form will suit absolutely any option for styling a "square" without bangs, since any haircuts can be combined with this type of face.

As mentioned above, all the variety of styling options "square" is limited to adding volume at the roots on straight hair or curling.

In order to lay the "square", a large round comb and styling foam are enough. Apply foam to clean, washed hair and dry with a hairdryer, lifting the strands with a brush at the roots. In the event that natural hair curls, after styling, you can additionally walk along the ends of the curls with an iron and pull them out.

To make a curl on the "square", you first need, as in the first option, apply styling foam and dry the haircut with a hair dryer, lifting at the roots. After that, treat the strands with a protective spray and screw them onto a curling iron of the required diameter. This can be done both in the direction from the face and towards the face, depending on what is the desired type of styling.

On dark, smooth hair, an even straight "square" with clear lines and sharp edges looks great.In combination with bright makeup, this option can look too defiant, so the severity of the hairstyle should be balanced with matte and nude shades.
