Spring is here and, if you haven't done so already, it is time to start considering your hairstyles for this season as soon as possible! Textured hair is a must this year! This spring let your natural texture show, whether straight, curly or wavy. Big natural looking hair is in this Spring. If you want to use a curling iron to accentuate your natural waves or curls, make sure that the iron is the correct size for your curls. If you have small, tight curls, use a 1/2 inch curling iron or smaller. If you have slightly wavy hair, use a 1-1/2 inch curling iron.
And, yes, bobs are back. This classic style is versatile and there are many types of bobs out there to choose from. Look to Hollywood for some of the hottest styles of this versatile haircut. Victoria Beckham, Katie Holmes and Rihanna are all wearing sleek bobs, while other celebs opt for bobbed waves that emulate 1940s styles.
These bobs are different than those bowl-cut styles of your childhood. Look for textured hair with some waves, and more voluminous, rounded bobs A-line styles work on many different face shapes An A-line cut is one with a blunt edge that is the same length in the front as in the back. Think Catherine Zeta Jones in "Chicago" with more length. However, combining a chin-length bob with thick bangs can make the face look more full, something many women don't want. Sweep your bangs to the side for a classy, polished look, or aim for a thinner fringe.
Color is coming back strong this spring. Gone are those delicate highlights and all-over color of last year.
Expect stronger highlights. They'll be chunkier this spring, and streaks will be more pronounced.

| Bobs are usually smooth but they look terrific worn with a bit of texture as this tousled look proves. |
Collar-grazing length and a blunt cut bottom makes this sleek style irresistible. |
A straight bob with full bangs is easy and flattering. |
This bob features shorter lengths around the face creating a gorgeous frame. |
Blond tones will be warmer and richer such as honey and caramel. Warm, rich browns will be complimented by dimension-adding streaks. Blondes will get away from platinums and opt for golden tones that'll be more complimentary to natural skin tones.
