The Bob

WHY IT WORKS "The length accentuates Christina's jawline while the side-part opens up her face," says hairstylist Garren, who has worked with Victoria Beckham and Angelina Jolie, among others. "What really makes it special is the incredibly modern, high-blond shade."

WHAT TO ASK FOR A classic, above-the-chin bob that's one length in the front and a touch shorter in back.

PERFECT FOR Since the length is adjustable, a bob works on nearly any face shape, says Garren. For instance, someone with a round face might have an above-the-chin cut, whereas a longer face might call for a shoulder-grazing version—so have your stylist decide. A bob is a challenge for kinky or curly hair, which tends to pouf and underplay the style's sleekness.
