How-To: Faux Bob
While it may be easy for your short-haired clients to make their hair "longer" by using hair extensions, it's harder for your long-haired clients to make their hair "shorter" without actually cutting their hair. If your clients want to keep their long locks but switch it up a bit, you may want to recommend this fantastic faux bob by Rodney Cutler from The Salon at ULTA. It's stylish and something your clients can recreate on their own!
