Would You Wednesday: Rockin’ Bobbin’
Recently Katy Perry chopped her locks and lightened her heinous pink hue. Â In my opinion, this is the look she should have gone with in the first place. Â While I’m not into the whole Strawberry Shortcake haircolor trend, I do think that IF you are… this is the way to go about it. Â It’s fun. Â It’s subtle. Â It’s something only a platinum selling pop star could pull off. Â She looks kinda fab, right?
The bob was first made popular in the 1920’s by actresses Colleen Moore and Louise Brooks. Â The cut was considered a bold statement of “independence” as girls in the West had historically all had long, quite coiffed tresses. Â It became more accepted as women’s long hair interfered with their work during the World War. Â The popularity of the bob was reignited once again in the 1960’s by Vidal Sassoon. Â The look has stuck around since then in modified versions.
Many a stylish celebrity has shorn her long locks for a bolder, more blunt bob. From Rihanna, to Kate Bosworth, to Victoria Beckham… and even more famously Anna Wintour, these ladies have highlighted their striking facial features with this sleek cut. Â So, would you trade in your long locks for a brazen bob?
