Katie Holmes’ hair has recently become a subject of debate. Either women love or hate the more mature bob she sports in lieu of the longer locks she had in the past. If you like her hair, you can get the same style as Katie Holmes.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Get your hair cut. Ask your stylist to give you a classic bob style. With a classic bob, your hair falls just below your chin and you can curl, straighten or create waves to change up your look.

  2. Step 2

    Keep the bangs. Although some bob cuts remove the bangs, Katie Holmes chose to keep hers to add more dimension and flair to her style.

  3. Step 3

    Use volumizing shampoo. Without a volumizing shampoo, Katie’s hair would look flat. Try Matrix’s Volumizing Shampoo or Jonathan Product Shampoo Serious Volume Volumizing Shampoo.

  4. Step 4

    Blow dry your hair after a shower to get more lift and body. Use a round brush to push your hair forward as you blow dry it. Before you blow dry it, spray on a small amount of Root Boost to help with the body.

  5. Step 5

    Straighten your Katie Holmes inspired hair with a flat iron. When you want to wear your bob straight, use a straightener and TiGi's S Factor Flat Iron Spray to achieve this look.

Tips & Warnings
  • If your features don’t work with a classic bob like Katie's, you can make alterations to the cut. For a large forehead, get a bob with sideswept bangs. If you have a heart shaped face, get layers to balance out the bob.
  • Most hair types can copy Katie’s style. You may run into a problem however if your hair is very fine or thin. Also, if your hair is currently very short, you may have to wait for it to grow out.
