Hairstyles - The Long Demi Bob

  Everyone looks good in a long bob so have at it, but be sure to abide by the rules of this haircut:

1.Longer bobs can be bland if too blunt. Stacked layers in the back with a bit of backcombing while styling add dimension. Add fringe or thick bangs for a real retro-70s look.

2.A bob can't be too layered, or it's not a bob. Gwyneth's demi-bob here was more edgy because the stylist thinned out the ends with scissors or a razor. But this year's bob isn't too blunt, either. Leave it wavy and mussed, blown dried under or flipped out 60's style.

3.The long bob works best on straight and wavy hair but it looks good on all hair textures (even curly). It's a versatile cut because you can wear it air-dried or flat-ironed.
