This past year we saw a massive come-back of the classic Bob hairstyle with a variety of takes, like the shaggy, blunt, and oh-so-chic cuts. It’s a trend that’s been taking the fashion world and Hollywood by storm, and I’m absolutely here for it!
Leading the fabulous pack of A-listers is the ever-gorgeous Haley Bieber, along with style icons Jenna Ortega and Naomi Watts, each bringing their unique spin to this timeless style. However, the Bob that catches my heart is the kind with dynamic layers, perfectly exemplified by the iconic Meg Ryan. At the Critics’ Choice Awards 2024, she debuted a modern twist to her signature 90s Bob, and it was nothing short of perfection!
Now, let’s talk about finding your perfect Bob. It’s all about complimenting your unique face shape:
Oval Faces
You’re in luck! Every Bob style looks divine on you. For those with thick wavy hair opt for longer layers while those with fine strands should steer clear of layering.
Heart Shaped
Embrace shaggy layers and bangs to achieve that enviable rockstar quality. This style lends height, and volume where it’s most flattering – above your cheekbones.
Square
For you, a Bob with short, textured layers at the back and longer ones in the front is ideal. Soft waves created with a curling iron will frame your face beautifully.
Long
A bob that just brushes the chin is your best bet. Keep it looking sharp with regular trims every 8 to 10 weeks, and for a touch of vintage chic, style it away from the face with some gel à la Lily Collins.
