Bobby dazzler

Team your new-wave fringe with a short jaw length bob. Celebrities like Alexa Chung have taken the bob and gone for a softer, more tapered look. The harsh, stylised bobs from 2007 are out – yes, that means you Kelly Osborne and Sarah Harding.

Straight, harshly coloured hair is over. Cuts are embracing more texture and movement so rather than relying on those straightening irons talk to your stylist about incorporating your hair’s natural movement into your new cut.

Darren Webster from Mayfair Salon, Webster Whiteman says: "Following on from 2007, the jaw length bob continues to be the cut of the moment. To create your own 2008 twist, team it with either a short blunt peeper-sweeper or a face-framing fringe."

Who does it suit?

This season’s bob is wavy, textured and more natural. It will work best if you have a natural kink or curl in your hair. Add lots of layers to emphasise your hair’s natural movement.
