The bob has consistently been among the top 10 most popular haircuts. Katie's hair has that swing and extra length, while Victoria's hair is full of porosity, straight, and shorter. Katie wears her hair angled back or swinging into a large C-curl toward her face, with just a few strands in her face, whereas Victoria wears hers angled straight down.
 
With the smooth features that the bob is famous for, it's important to have your hair's wave pattern analyzed before you decide to get that haircut. For example, if you have naturally curly and wavy hair, you automatically know that your hair will never fall into the smooth look that the bob requires.
 
Unless you are willing to go to extremes and get your hair professionally straightened, the maintenance can be high, and so can the price. Using your flat iron will help to some extent, but it won't look the same. When it rains, your hair will not remain straight but begin to frizz up and return to its curls. You have to ask yourself if this haircut is worth the extra effort, knowing that you will have to keep your flat iron always ready.
 
You could always give it a try. But if you discover it is just too much, go back to your hairstylist and tell her to put your hair back into layers so your hair can be happier doing what it was born to do—curling. Another option to consider when you get the bob is to think versatility, not always straightness. If you have naturally curly hair, once in a while apply some curl activator and scrunch it all up, allowing your hair to do its thing. In that way, you aren't trying to fool anyone, but enjoying your world of curls as well as being straight too.
 
Bobs were basically made for naturally straight hair. This haircut is a blessing from heaven for those with thin hair, as it is quite illusionary. With the use of a lot of styling products for volume and added thickeners, when styled properly with a blow dryer and a medium to large brush, no one would ever know just how thin your hair really is. Always remember, everything is in the haircut.

So, right now you might be asking, "What else can this haircut do for me?" One thing this cut will do is make your neck look longer and give the illusion that you've lost a few pounds. A properly cut bob will indeed take off a few of those unwanted pounds. That sounds like a good prescription to me.
 
Another benefit of the bob style is that it always looks good. Even if you're not dressed up and need to run to the store, you’ll look better than that girl in front of you with the long, stringy hair that needs to be trimmed.
 
As I mentioned, Katie Holmes' and Victoria Beckham's styles are similar but not the same. They are close to the Dutch girl look. If you have a high forehead, you might want the Dutch boy style, like Rihanna's—make sure your stylist tweaks some bangs for you, slightly above your eyebrows.
 
This whole look for Katie has made her image more mature and grown-up, like a woman instead of a girl. A princess of taste. Her mode of dressing has also evolved to be more sophisticated and classy instead of following everyone else's lead. What seems to be happening is that Katie is coming into her own identity with style and purpose.
 
People change when they get married, and they change even more when children come along. Katie is in a time of discovering more about herself and her life, and all of this is a reflection of how she looks today. We should applaud her for such a stunning enhancement!
