SANDRA BULLOCK'S BOB HAIR STYLE

By: SANDRAHAIR

Over the past 2 years Sandy has made a lot of changes in her life. Her most recent is the adoption of a spectacular new top-of-the-shoulders bob hairstyle. A former member of People's 50 Most Beautiful People (1996 & 1999), the naturalized Texan unveiled her super-seductive classic bob with a peek-a-boo side-swept "Veronica Lake" fringe.

When I look at Sandra's sizzling new bob I am amazed at the fact that the actress has naturally curly hair. Over the years it has been reported that the actress has undergone a variety of relaxing and chemical straightening treatments for her natural ringlets.

Sandra's classic bob was angled so that it dips slightly forward into seductive curvy points in the front under her chin. This builds in beautiful movement and body.

It is very important to note that Sandra's stellar hairstyle starts with a precision cut that is designed to build in maximum fullness around the crown with a hint of very slight razoring around the ends to add just a bit of extra texture.

Depending on some hair texture and types, razoring may or may not be the best option for some people. With Sandra's style the hint of razor feathering along the perimeter creates just the right edginess.

Her new bob cut also allows Sandra to either part her hair down the middle and wear a shimmering veil of chocolate brown strands framing either side of her face or to wear a side part with a side-swept eye covering fringe.

When she wears the style with the peek-a-boo fringe she also has the option to tuck one side behind one ear and pull the ends forward to frame her neck.

Whether it is worn with or without the side-swept strands, the style is perfect with her classic square shaped face and gorgeous features.

Auburn Highlights If you look closely you will be able to see that Sandra's chocolate brown tresses have been very carefully highlighted with ribbons of rich auburn color placed strategically throughout her bob to add the illusion of fullness and depth. The auburn highlights placed against the soft chocolate base also helps to bring out a shine.

Stealing Sandra's Bob Style Sandra's hairstyle can be customized to work with just about any face shape, hair type or texture. For naturally curly or wavy hair the strands must be either pre-straightened or blow dried straight.

This style is ideal for hair that is medium in thickness.

Follow the few steps below to recreate Sandra's style:

Start with a precision angled bob that is cut to hang forward into curved points and frame the neck.

1. Start by washing your hair in lukewarm water with a product designed to add back moisture and to treat colored or highlighted hair with tender loving care. Try www.realsalonproducts.com to find a product for your hair type.

2. Rinse hair well and then apply a moisturizing rinse-out conditioner focusing the products on the areas of the hair that are the most dry or damaged. If your hair is fine or thin you may wish to skip this option.

For extra conditioning substitute the rinse-out conditioner with a deep conditioner that is allowed to soak down into the hair's shaft.

4. Finish with a cool/cold rinse to lock in moisture and add some additional shine.

5. Towel blot to remove excess moisture. Apply a conditioning detangling spray or leave-in conditioner and detangle strands with a wide tooth comb working from the ends to the roots. Create either a center or a side part, depending on how you wish to style your hair.

Note: If your hair is frizzy apply a defrisant product or mix with your other styling products. You can find plenty of these at www.realsalonproducts.com

6. For lots of fullness, lift and volume, apply a volume enhancing product to the roots. Distribute a straightening balm to the rest of the strands of hair by distributing from below the roots to the ends.

7. Separate strands into 1" to 2 1/2" sections and blow dry with a boar's bristle round brush. Blow dry the top sections of hair using fingers to lift individual top strands and direct the air flow from ends to roots.

Use the brush to turn the ends under around the edges and slightly in towards your neck.

Note: If hair is naturally curly, do not use fingers to blow dry since this can add to frizz. Use a boar's bristle brush instead.

8. When hair is completely dry you may opt to touch up the strands of hair with a straightening iron to achieve sleeker panels of hair.

You may choose to use a curling iron (or hot rollers) to turn under the ends or add more volume and lift to the crown area.

9. Apply a shine serum, shine spray or hair cream to seal in moisture and add that shimmering shine similar to Sandra's. Hairspray is optional. Hairspray may make the hair look dull by taking out the shine.
