inspired by: the classic bob

The classic bob is back for autumn 2010 but with a contemporary twist.
The key words are clean and simple. Think Uma Thurman's Pulp Fiction look. New cutting techiques are giving the bob a fresh new look. Out goes the chopping and cutting into the hair. Cuts are now sleek and blunt.
Colour is key to bring this look firmly into the 21st century. Rich, burnished tones have a hint of blue-red while browns are highlighted with black and nearly-black browns.

Ask a Stylist

Your hair questions answered by our team...

My hair is so fine and when I am blow waving it, it tangles easily, what can I do?

Eliminate this problem at the conditioning stage. Apply conditioner and, before rinsing out, use a wide-toothed comb taking care not to tug at the hair as this causes it to break easily. When ready to sculpt and style, use a combination of serum and gel which will increase your hair's manageability and give extra definition and shine.

I have my hair coloured and now the colour is fading. Is there anything I can do?

Sunshine - especially in the summer - can really cause hair colouring to fade. Always use a specialist product containing a UV filter to protect your colour - and your hair - from the sun. When you go on holiday to hotter climates make sure you pack specialist anti-oxidant sprays to protect your hair from the heat and strong rays.

My hair is starting to show signs of ageing. What can I do?

Hair "matures", sadly just like every other part of the body. It can grow weaker, become thinner and sometimes look thin and coarse.

Product ranges, like Kerastase's Age Premium - available at Blushes - is formulated to revitalise mature hair. It is designed to hydrate your hair, replacing vital moisture.

Take care when applying conditioner to your hair and causing it to look more limp. Work conditioner into your hair ends, where it is needed, and not the roots. Sticking to the hair ends will give your hair more bounce and a fuller body.

How can I get incredibly shiny hair - just like the celebrities?

The secret is hairspray, hairspray and more hairspray! First blow dry your hair. Apply hairspray and then use your straighteners to melt the spray on to your hair.

Repeat this process another two times: spray and melt on to hair with straighteners. The three layers of melted spray will give your hair an incredible shine and will reflect light.

And you too will look like Cheryl Cole!

It's that simple

My hair is very fine and always looks so flat?

Heat-activated hair savers will sort this problem out for you. Apply a heat-activated, leave-in conditioner on two-inch sections of wet hair. Blow-dry using a large, round brush, curling ends slightly. On completion comb through for a smooth finish. This should leave your hair looking ultra-shiny.
