The "Posh" or Graduated Bob.

"Every Time Hair History
Repeats Itself ...... It Does It Better "

This hair style, made famous by Victoria "Posh" (Adams) Beckman, is a funky new style that is worth a try. Many refer to it as the Posh Bob but it's technical name is the Graduated Bob because of the gradual length change from the front to the back. What most people don't know is way before the Spice Girl adorned this funky style it was popular among many women. In the 1920's short hair and bobs were all the rage, after much experimentation the Graduated Bob was born. Back then it was worn much shorter with short blunt bangs and blunt layers that were often curled under or made into waves.

Now eighty years later, the Bob is back! The best thing about the graduated bob is that it looks great on almost everyone. A short, angled Bob hairstyle is the ideal choice for busy lifestyles. Bob's are the perfect hairstyle; they can be modified and altered to suit individual face shapes and hair types. Straight across bangs, side fringe, chunky bangs, long layers, chunky layers, side or long bangs, layers near the face, anything can be done to make the Graduated Bob perfect for you. It can be worn straight, wavy, or curly, or anything in between.

And Victoria isn't the only famous singer to wear this spunky bob. Hot new R&B artist Rihanna also has a Graduated bob, wich she wears straight, curled, and with bangs. She proves that even the most feminine of girls can look girl with a bob haircut. Ladies, don't hide under a mess of hair this summer, make a change you will thank yourself for later.
