Don’t want to take things quite this short? Do you find it easy to work with tresses at little bit longer length? Well, let’s get into a black haircut that is tad more lengthy but just as fabulous!

This haircut is oh, so sexy! Look in the mirror and giggle to yourself because you might be one of the select few that can pull off this gorgeous style. Better yet, take your index finger place it on your tongue then touch your booty. You know you are sizzling hot!

Nevertheless, to keep this look up do not forget to slide on that silk scarf at night baby girl! A scarf will help cut down on hair damage caused and also created by friction between you as well as your sheets. As you toss, turn and slide your hair against a fabric like cotton; your hair is being rubbed against a “rough” surface.

Cotton is great for keeping skin and also babies dry; however it is not as kind on your strands. Therefore, keep your hair and your short bob hairstyles looking pristine by wrapping them up in a satin or silk scarf every night.

Furthermore, to maintain your bob haircut you will want to think about getting regular trims. Moreover, there are few things to keep in mind in order to figure out how soon you should be sitting in your stylist’s chair. Ask yourself: Do I want to my blunt cut to look sharp; or is a little “grown out” looking okay? How fast does my hair tend to grow? Is the original shape of my cut still visible?

Most black hair professionals we have talked to regarding this topic suggest going in for a trim every 5-6 weeks. This way your cut always stays looking tick tick BOMB and is also maintained properly.

Lastly, if you choose the “blunt cut” this is more likely the most high maintenance out of all the short bob hairstyles looks. This is because you HAVE TO get a trim every six weeks to keep this style looking sharp and also edgy. Just a bit of styling FYI. Nonetheless, it is time to feat our hair lover eyes on some serious short bob inspo!
