This vintage photo of a couple from the 1920's shows a perfect example of the bob with finger waves.
A side part is where the side swept bangs begin and they are close to the scalp with defined waves. Bobby pins were usually used on wet hair at night to hold the shape for morning when they were removed. The length is just below the ears.

This short bob if full of vintage flair and is straight on top with small curls around the bottom.
A flat iron helps to straighten the top layers while the bottom edge sports bends. The bangs split at a side part to open the forehead. This is a fun short hairstyle for a formal event. A professional relaxer treatment helps to gain the texture needed to get a style like this one if the strands are naturally kinky curly.

Charlize Theron
This would be a beautiful look for a holiday party and would be possible to do with long hair if the back was put up in an updo. Shorter layers would be necessary near the front for the bob look. Charlize has crimped waves here which was ever so popular back in the roaring 20s. She is poised here at AFI FEST 2009 "The Road" Premiere.
