Cory is a polished, straight bob that rests at the jawline, with a softly rounded shape and a light fringe. Noriko offers it in a good spread of blondes: Creamy Blond, Gold Blond, Frosti Blonde, Spring Honey and Vanilla Lush, and the style is pictured in Creamy Blonde. The machine-made cap is light and breathable with adjustable tabs, and Headcovers Unlimited pitches it as a practical choice for wearers who find styling too much. The problem is price: at $242.99, down from $285, it costs more than Raquel Welch Winner and Jon Renau Allure without adding a lace front or monofilament part. Buy it if you want this exact chin-length shape in a creamy blonde.
