For a Shiny Jet-Black Bob

- PHOEBE NATHAN Blackstone­s, 19 E. 7th St.; 2 Sixth Ave.; 212-353-2680

 BELIEVE IT OR NOT, there’s really an art to creating Cher-like jet-black hair. Which is why, rather than relying on boxed dye that quickly turns dull, Misshapes DJ Leigh Lezark—who is well known for her black bob—has turned to colorist Phoebe Nathan since 2013. A natural blonde, Lezark says that Nathan’s $150 dye-and-gloss jobs create a black shade that actually “stays shiny” (and yes, while the cost is far more than some Garnier Nutrisse, it’s worth noting that other salons will charge up to $300 for a similar service).
