Donts for would be bobbers in hair care
Don t bob your hair if you are extremely tall or stout and head looks too small. Don t have a shingle if your nose is large. Either a round or curly bob. Don t shampoo too often to keep your bob fine. Too frequent shampooing relaxes the scalp and increases oil tendency. Once every three or four weeks is enough. Keep hair healthy with cleansing tonics and scalp massage. Brush morning and night to keep it glossy. Short hair doesn t guarantee freedom from care and it grows back in months. Don t fear a permanent wave if curls are hard to keep. Permanent waves are harmless and can be done at home. Never comb your bob in public. Don t bob if head shape is asymmetrical. Don t bob if hair is straggly thin or soft as it looks flatter. Slightly coarse hair.
