It doesn’t get better than a bold color to complement your core hue.

Give your hair some life by adding some curls into it. not only will it add volume but make your locs bouncy.

Add some edginess to your Bob cut by leaving the front longer than the back side.

To achieve this all you need is for one side of the hair to be longer than the other. Take it a notch higher with an undercut design that will be sure to turn heads.

Bright and bold hue colored hair on a slightly A-lined bob always compliments warm skin-tones.
