The First Lady Gets a New Look

lg share en The First Lady Gets a New Look

Michelle Obama fooled everyone into thinking she had chopped off her hair last night when she debuted a shorter summer bob at a country music event at the White House. The First Lady’s hairstylist, Johnny Wright, later explained that Obama’s new ‘do was simply an illusion. To get the look, he pulled her hair into a low ponytail and tucked it under to create the appearance of a neck-baring bob. It’s amazing what a good stylist can do!

    Johnny did a good job, Michelle would look great with a short style. Stylist to stylist she’s rocking her hairstyle.

    First lady michelle, Her longer hair i feel is better for her . Her face is long ang cheeks are very cheiseled. The longer hair softens her up alot. The cut isnt that great its not really defined.She does have alot of body and bounce I like that alot.

    I think she’s beautiful no matter how she wears her hair. I believe he didn’t cut her hair I believe he wanted her to experience an alternative. And chose to pin her hair up to give her the illusion that it’s a bob cut. I think it’s quite sophisticated.

    I’m sorry folks, but from a stylist’s point of view, this is more than likely a wig. The texture is completely different than her natural hair texture. Texture is something that you just can’t change. I’m sure that he did pull it into a low ponytail right before he mounted the wig. Sorry, Johnny, I apologize if I’m wrong, but, I’ve just seen this done one too many times. It is amazing what you can do with the wigs of today.
