Famous celebrities who have a bob hairstyle are Katie Holmes, Posh Spice and Nicole Ritchie. It is obvious that this hairstyle is slowly having its way back to the fashion world.

Actually, this kind of hairstyle has been used for a couple of decaded. They started in the 1920s when women and their fashion sense evolved from conservative to liberated and this evolution did not spare their hair. Those who had to wear long straight, wavy, or curly hair all their lives could now cut their manes and be more adventurous. Those with bobs tended to be more confident because of its stylish and sophisticated look. In this era, this hairstyle is a way for women to show that they can be considered equal to men and to show that they take pride in the new freedom that they are enjoying.

Today, bobs are still very much in vogue, although their connection with freedom might be remote. Are you thinking of getting a bob hairstyle? Here are a few celebrities who wear them and pick out a few ideas.

Katie Holmes

You can instruct your stylist to cut your hair along the length of your jaw. Your hair should look like its hugging your face from your jaw upwards. Make sure that you have your hair layered to the shape of your face and the back part should be a little shorter.

Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth has a squarish jawline so if you have the same facial structure, this can look good on you, too. Those who have curls and waves can also have bobs, too, by straightening their hair first and cut it shoulder legnth. Nicole Ritchie A long bob with sweet side swept bangs will surely look good on any facial shapes, just like Nicole Ritchie. To get it, have your hairstylist cut your hair up to the base of your neck. Your bangs which should be eye-level should be swept to one side.

Chelsea Hobbs

Hers is much like Katie Holmes’ bob but is softer on the edges and with longer bangs which shouldn’t be thick but layered with less volume. The length goes just below the jaw line but with subtle layering.
