Features of technology
Bob is not just a classic of hairdressing, but also a symbol of sexuality, femininity and impeccable taste. If you carefully examine the history of the elongated bean, it can be noted that a significant role in promoting this haircut was played by the ideas of feminism, which began to gain strength at the beginning of the last century. New women's fashion demanded a fresh look based on the new role of women in society. Beautiful ladies began to assert their rights publicly, they wanted to be on a par with men. And, of course, this could not but impose a significant imprint on the appearance.
However, the years went by, the fashion changed. And in the second half of the 20th century, the fair sex again wanted to be feminine and be able to emphasize their sexuality by any means. In this regard, a short elongated bean (long) would have come in very handy. He is able to show and emphasize the beauty of the beautiful female neck, can visually lengthen the face, as well as mask some defects of the woman’s appearance.
But why this haircut does not lose relevance for the past several decades? The answer is simple to genius. First of all, the bean is relatively unpretentious in the care, while it will help a woman in any situation look spectacular. Secondly, this haircut is versatile. What does it mean?
Bob is suitable for ladies of any age category, body type, hair type and face shape. Only when choosing the type of elongated bean with a bang should observe some nuances.
Perhaps someone thinks that the bob is no different from the famous quads. However, between these two hairstyles there are significant differences.
- Classic car made with bangs. A bob, on the contrary, allows for various variations.
- When creating a bob, the head is cut off, while the square has clear geometric lines in all parts of the hairstyle. This technique of creating a bean helps to create volume, which is very suitable for fine hair.
- When a bean is laid, a volume is created from the roots, which is not typical for a classic square - here an extra volume can break the whole concept of the image.
- Kare was originally conceived as a hairstyle for women, while a bob was originally a kind of boyish haircut.
First, the classic bob was made to perform without a bang - haircut “cap” exactly copied the shape of the skull.
This version of the hairstyle was not suitable for everyone.A woman should have a beautiful head shape and regular features. This variation is perfect for miniature women with an oval face.
However, as time went on and more and more, hairdressers began to add bangs to this hairstyle, which, in turn, helped to mask some defects in appearance. For example, elongated straight frontal strands help to “smooth out” a broad and sloping forehead, while emphasizing the lower part of the face. Oblique bangs help to make the face more elongated and slightly “soften” coarse features.. The torn frontal strands make the look more expressive and emphasize the cheekbones.

By type of face
From the point of view of the hairdressing approach, girls with an oval face were luckier a little more than others, since they have more choices regarding the shape and length of haircuts. However, the oval itself is also not the same for different representatives of the fair sex, for example, it can be a little more approximate to a circle or a square. This feature plays a crucial role in choosing the shape of bangs.
In folk art there was a persistent stereotype that women with a round face are the most Russian type, attractive for real men. However, these ladies still need to realistically assess their shortcomings and be able to hide them correctly, emphasizing the undoubted advantages.
In this case, an elongated bean is ideal. Longer frontal strands will help “smooth out” fullish cheeks or wide cheekbones.
Here, the volume on the back of the head will look very harmonious, while if the pomp in this zone is excessive, the image will be spoiled, since the girl's head will seem too large.
A characteristic feature of a square face is expressive cheekbones and a relatively massive lower part. Here the hairstyle should give the rough features of softness and prettiness. In this case, the best option would be an elongated bob with a fringe on its side.
