This graduated bob with a long side fringe offers layers all the way through to create movement. The color: a golden brown with some highlighted panels of amber underneath to allow delicate dimension.
To get this look: Apply Aveda Phomollient throughout damp hair for soft control. Finger dry hair and flat iron for shine and control leaving a very sleek and polished finish.
To get this look (#2): Add texture and movement to dry hair by applying a small amount of Aveda Control Paste. Rough hair up by hand and then finger-style into place.

This look started with hand painted caramel highlights through a warm mahogany cherry base. After a Brazilian Blowout treatment was done, hair extensions were applied and blended in.
Get this look: For a softly curled, long layered style, apply Brazilian Blowout Smoothing Serum all over and Brazilian Blowout Volumizing Root lift at the base. Blow-dry sections smooth using a medium ceramic round brush with maximum tension, concentrating on the root. Taking 1-inch vertical sections, mist with Sebastian Zero Gravity Shapier and curl hair with a flat iron away from the face. Flip head over and shake hair out while misting with more hair spray leaving a pliable finish.
To get this look (#2 - using her natural length and curl): Diffuse hair using Moroccan Oil Curl Control Cream all over and Brazilian Blowout Volumizing Root lift on the roots. The end result is a tight but frizz-free curl.

Long and medium layers and a sweeping side fringe add a face-framing quality as well as volume, texture and movement.
The color is a rich brown that transitions into a subtle mahogany ombre effect. Copper highlights, including a panel in the front, accent the fringe and break up the dark to light transition through the length.
To get this look: Apply Wella Ocean Spritz texture spray and Sebastian Potion 9 on damp hair and rough dry with fingers to remove most of the moisture. Introduce a round brush to sections, smoothing through with tension. Run a flat iron through for shine and control and then apply a dab of Brazilian Blowout Define Polish for a sleek and polished finish.
To get this look (#2): Take 1-inch rectangular sections, backcomb at the root, spray with Sebastian Shapier Plus and curl in alternating directions. Pin curls up to cool. Undo pins and piece through using Brazilian Blowout Define Polish to leave a soft but voluminous wave.

Triangular graduation, concave layers and disconnection on the right side give this short asymmetric cut some serious edge.
Fire inspired, this color is a deep Mahogany that works into medium tone, which is lightened in the front with coppery red hues around the face.
To get this look: Apply Sebastian Volpt Spray at the root and Wella Oil Huile on the ends of damp hair. Use a flat brush while blow-drying to remove moisture and then introduce a round brush through crown for lift and volume. Once dry, flat iron the ends to leave a sleek finish.
To get this look (#2): Mist on Sebastian Zero Gravity Spray and round brush in the crown for added height. Add a bit of Craft Clay and finish off with more Zero Gravity for texture, control and hold.
