Since ancient times, people have paid great attention to the hair on their heads. Moreover, in each era, hairstyles differed both in content and in volume of hair. There were special hairstyles that were performed for special events, but there were also simple, everyday ones.
Today, perhaps, the hairdressing industry has reached unforgettable heights in the skill and complexity of hairstyles. But, nevertheless, the bob remains one of the most popular and sought-after haircuts.
History of bob haircuts
The bob haircut is one of the most popular haircuts in the world. Its feature is considered right angles and straight lines. It was worn by almost all famous women, from Cleopatra to modern famous stars and models. In Egypt, this haircut was worn not only by women, but also by men. Both the poor and the rich were the owners of such a hairstyle.
It would seem that a lot of time has passed since the era of Cleopatra, but still the haircut remains one of the most practical and popular, both in everyday life and on holidaysdays. It can be called the number one haircut in the world. She looks good with both straight hair and curly hair. Nowadays, the technology of bob haircuts has been modified by stylists, but this has not made it less popular, but on the contrary, the demand for this hairstyle has only increased.
Varieties of caret
There are many options for bob haircuts. This is a classic bob, graduated bob, bob with a leg, bob, bob for elongation and other types.
Classic caret is better to use for girls with a triangular or rectangular oval face. The technology for performing bob haircuts in various modifications will be described below.
Execution process
Before starting work, it is necessary to thoroughly moisten the hair, while they must be clean. Then you should divide them into zones. With a vertical parting, it is necessary to divide the hair from the middle of the forehead to the middle of the back of the head - this is the first stage. The second stage is the division of hair with an arcuate parting from ear to ear. Thus, the hair is divided into four parts.
Some masters no longer divide the hair, but there are those who still divide it into two zones from the temple to the back of the head on one side, the division is performed in the same way on the second side. This is how a classic bob is made, the cutting technology of which involves dividing the head into zones. This is done in order to make it easier to arrange a haircut in the future. So, it turned out five zones:
- lower occipital zone (NZZ);
- superioccipital zone (VZZ);
- frontal zone (FZ);
- left temporal zone (LVZ);
- legal temporal zone (PVZ).
Step-by-step haircut technology
Before performing this haircut, you need to find out from the client the preferred length of hair. Haircut starts from the back of the head. Along the lower edge of the hair, it is necessary to separate a thin strand of about 1 cm with a horizontal parting, comb it down. It is necessary to cut off the hair from the middle of the neck in two directions, right and left, with a pull down. Draw angle is zero degrees. The first cut strand is called the control (KP). It will be two centimeters shorter than all the hair in the haircut. So, separating strand by strand and combing out the hair, each subsequent CP is cut off, but one millimeter longer. This execution is called graduation under the bottom. Each subsequent strand will be longer than the previous one. So the entire occipital zone is cut. So, summing up the NZZ and VZZ haircuts, we can distinguish the following stages:
- draw zero degrees;
- graduation under the bottom;
- strand to strand overlay.
The next step will be a haircut from the PVZ, PVZ and the frontal zone. Again, you need to separate a strand of 1 cm. It is combed in a downward direction, with a straight cut, the angle of inclination is zero degrees. We cut the first strand, starting from the cut strands of the occipital zone. The haircut continues in this way until a direct parting on the frontal parietal zone. The left and right zones are cut symmetrically.
After all the hair is cut, the whole mass of hair is checked. From directparting on the FZ, the hair is combed on the sides, and the corners of the hair are compared. The occipital hair is also combed down and checked. If after combing out strands come across along the edging line, they must be removed. This will complete the edging. If the client wants to have a more rounded haircut, thinning should be done along the bottom edge of the hair all over the head.
Additional techniques for cutting "Kare"
After every haircut, the hair is styled to make sure everything is cut perfectly. After drying the hair, they look to see if everything is even along the edge of the hair. The temporal zones are dried with a brush with a pull down, and on the upper occipital zone, the hair rises up and dries from under the bottom, for more volume.
Kare for lengthening is suitable for women with any type of face. This haircut is very elegant, stylish and modern. Suitable for both a business lady and an eccentric girl.
Classic bob for lengthening, graduated bob, bob haircut, asymmetric bob - all these are varieties of bob for lengthening.
Kare for lengthening
What is the technology of cutting a bob for lengthening? The technique of this haircut is very difficult, it will take a lot of strength and abilities of the master to complete it. Haircut is performed on freshly washed hair. Hair is divided into zones, as with a classic bob haircut.
A strand is separated at the back of the head horizontally and cut (KP) with a straight cut. The cutting angle can bedifferent. A standard of 30 degrees is allowed, which means the width of the strand should be no more than 7 cm. Separating with parallel partings in relation to the CP, we pull the hair to the middle of the back of the head and cut it on the right and left sides, focusing on the control strand. At this pace, the entire occipital area is cut at an angle of no more than 15 degrees and graduated downwards by 1-2 millimeters.
Going to the temple, you need to separate the strand horizontally and, pulling it to the occipital zone, cut it off, thus, when combing, you will get an angle at the temples. The haircut continues on both sides, separating with horizontal partings to the upper parietal zone. When everything is cut, the hair is combed out and checked for loose strands. After that, you need to do the edging and styling. Without them, the haircut is not considered complete.
Graduated caret
This is one of the varieties of the classic bob haircut, but only it is modified. Two haircuts are mixed here - a bob and a cascade. The master can adjust the length of the strands himself. depending on the type of hair and facial contours, as well as on the wishes of the client. What is the graduated bob haircut technology? As always, wash your hair and dry it with a towel, carefully combing it. Divide hair into zones. There are four of them in this case - parietal, occipital, left temporal and right temporal.
In all zones, you need to outline the control strand. Along the edge of hair growth, a strand is separated throughout the head. Hair strands are separated horizontally, combed down and cut to the desired length without stretch.
Thenit is necessary to divide the back of the head with vertical partings and cut off the hair of the entire zone along the control strand, with a brace parallel to the head. Pull angle - 90 degrees. Technique - imposing a strand on a strand. Thus, the temporal zones are also cut, at the same angle. Cut the frontal zone, separating the strands with horizontal partings parallel to the head. After all the hair is cut - thinning in all areas for a smoother cut. All haircuts are styled.
Bob-carriage
The bob is a mixed haircut style, just like the graduated bob. Only in this case, the bob haircut technology is intertwined with bob and bob haircuts. This hairstyle is suitable for almost all types of hair, except for very thin and rare. With such a structure, it will not be possible to make the volume that should be with this haircut. This is the last of the main types of bob hairstyle, which deserves special consideration.
The initial stages are the same as in other modifications - wet clean hair, division into zones. In the bob-car, the bob haircut technology is used - graduation. At the back of the head, the hair shading technique (NZZ) is performed, the upper zone of the nape is cut with strands superimposed upwards.
The technology for performing a bob haircut provides that the hair of the side zones is cut along the longest strand at the crown with a straight cut, without graduation.
Comb according to hair growth and make a fringing, removing all unwanted hairs. Finally blow-dry and you're done.
