Bob Cascade haircut: features and secrets of creation

Graduated cascading haircut for many years remains fashionable. It is good in that it can be performed on long, medium and even short hair. In addition, it is very easy to care for.

A hairstyle is created by forming hair of different lengths in the form of steps or the so-called cascade. This is a multi-layer haircut when each lower strand is longer than the upper. In this case, the transition can be smooth or deliberately emphasized. In the modern version of the bean cascade, the occipital part is usually made more shortened, while in the middle several elongated strands are often left. Bean haircut is so diverse that its varieties are often confused. For example, many girls often confuse graduated bob with cascade. Indeed, these two styling are similar to each other in their multi-stage. However, there are several differences.

• With a cascade, the transition between the strands is softer and smoother than with graduation. A bob cascade is also used to create extra volume at the back of the head.
• When cascading a haircut, you can visually adjust the face shape using various elements: for example, bangs or strands of different lengths near the face. With a graduated bean, this technique is not possible.
• Bob cascade looks more harmonious on long or medium hair, while graduation is most often performed on short haircuts.

The peculiarity of a bob cascade haircut is that it does not have clear contraindications and all the rules are advisory in nature. Pros of hairstyles:

• it is very easy to change the styling form from everyday to solemn, there is a lot of space for experimenting with various hair accessories;
• favorably changes the perception of appearance, diverting attention from imperfections and emphasizing dignity;
• it is very simple to lay on your own without resorting to the help of a stylist;
• the haircut is universal and has no contraindications according to the type of face or style of clothing, it can be performed on both straight and wavy hair (the exception is very curly curls);
• Bob cascade has no age restrictions and it can be recommended to ladies of any age;
• an elongated cascade gives the necessary volume to thin hair;
• on a cascading haircut, complex multicolor coloring looks very beautiful.

Unfortunately, there are also disadvantages:

• the tips of the hair require increased attention when styling;
• not recommended for coarse, oily or too thick hair.

Despite the fact that this haircut is for almost everyone, there are several features that should be considered when styling. So, the smooth transitions of length that are characteristic of this hairstyle look more expressively on fair hair. On the dark they are not visible enough. And also there are several haircut rules depending on the shape of the face. Owners of the correct oval will suit any shape and length. Both ultra-short haircuts and elongated strands are suitable for them. In addition, they will be decorated with bangs and its absence.

Chubby beauties need to be more careful when choosing a haircut. They should stick to styling without bangs or make it asymmetric, extended to one side. It is better to make the crown shorter, and the strands framing the face, gradually pull down. With a face shape, a triangle will ideally look like a multilayer cascade with profiled hair ends.

Depending on the length of the hair, there are also several nuances that will help a haircut look more attractive. So, for a short length with an open neck, the cascade is used throughout the head, starting from the crown. It looks very attractive oblique bangs with the effect of torn ends, smoothly turning into the main length. In the classical cascade, the haircut begins with the crown of the head, and the length differences are smooth and inconspicuous. The Art Nouveau cascade is characterized by sharper transitions from one step to another.

A middle-length bob cascade can be a compromise when you want to look fashionable and modern, but at the same time remain feminine and romantic. In this case, the length of the curls increases gradually, not only from the upper part of the head to the lower, but also from the occipital region to the temporal one. An elongated bob cascade suggests the size of the hair to the shoulders. This haircut is ideal for thin hair. An extended bob cascade will give you the opportunity to experiment with styling.

To perform a bob cascade haircut, in addition to conventional scissors, you must have a tool for milling hair. Haircut is carried out in two ways.

• In the first case, the main strand is determined in the center, which is fixed with clamps. The width of the strand is aligned using parallel parting. The main strand is given the necessary length, along which all subsequent strands are oriented. Then the curls are cut at the back of the head and at the temples.
• The second method involves a phased cutting of one strand after another. First of all, the length of the hair on the back of the head is formed, then it moves up towards the crown. In both cases, the final step in cutting is to cut the ends of the hair to add volume to the hair.

When styling a bobcascade haircut with your own hands, it is enough to observe two basic rules that will help you look well-groomed:

• mandatory giving of fluffiness to the hair at the base;
• design tips.

It is enough to arm yourself with a hairdryer and a round comb. Dry your freshly washed and slightly damp hair with a hairdryer, lifting it with a round comb at the roots, creating the necessary volume. When the hair is almost dry, you can lightly wrap the ends of the hair using brushing. If you like straight hair, strands can be pulled out with a hair straightener. It creates a lamination effect. The styling will look like after visiting a beauty salon.

A festive version of the bob cascade hairstyle is created in a similar way. The strands are lifted by a comb at a right angle and also dried by a hairdryer. Only previously a foam or other cosmetic product is applied to the hair to create volume. A small amount of gel or cosmetic wax is applied to the ends of the hair and spread with your fingers.

• To begin to dry hair should be with longer curls. At first they are simply dried with a hairdryer, and then, when they are already dry, they begin to shape them.
• Shorter strands are dried last. Strands wound on brashing or curlers should be untwisted when they have cooled down. If they are deployed hot, they will not keep in shape.
• When drying hair, it is better to use a hairdryer with a built-in fan or cold air function. Dry hair should be alternating streams of hot and cold air. A hot air stream will help dry your hair faster, and a cold stream will not let it dry. Thus, the strands dry evenly and hold their shape for a long time.
• The ends of the hair when cutting a bob cascade can be twisted up or down. The latter option is able to soften excessively harsh features and make the image more feminine. However, if the lady's cheekbones are pronounced, it is better to tuck the ends of the hair inward.
• If the bob cascade is made on highly curly hair, they must be straightened when styling using an iron and special cosmetics. They are also not recommended to twist the ends of the strands up.
