The classic bob haircut is making a comeback in a big way. And we’re not just talking about the traditional “flapper” style. These days, celebrities are embracing the bob in all its forms – from the sleek and chic to the messy and undone.
Of course, there’s really no getting away from a hairdo that, while being an ’80s favorite, is both adaptable and appealing. Not just that, there are predictions that shorter hairstyles are easier to maintain than their contemporaries. With daily schedules running over themselves, it’s only safe to maintain minimal styling and upkeep, which the bob haircut so effortlessly accomplishes.
If you’re still not sure, check out these celebs who have shown that bobs are still in style. While many celebrities have worn the bob haircut over the years, helping to popularize the trend, these ones are evidence that with the bob haircut, less is more, and that, as expected, is giving the hair department a buzzing moment in 2023.
Emily Ratajkowski
Emily’s once-long locks were recently cut into a French micro bob with an estimated 10-inch loss. Hers has become top on my inspirational board for 2023 hairstyles to rock due to a number of factors, including the color—a jet-black choice with a full fringe transformational look. Eyes popped, literally, as the model debuted her new look in an Instagram Story.
Emma Stone
It’s safe to say, Emma is back to her 2014 custom chic bob haircut- the shortest her hair has been since 2017. It’s certainly a dramatic change from the style she was rocking late last year. We always gushed over her recent flicked-out-ends hairdo (sadly) but Stone’s bob’s here to stay and so is our admiration for it.
Zendaya
In a recent post, Zendaya showed us how great her bob looks with her naturally curly hair texture. Zendaya’s honey-blonde hair nearly reaches her shoulders in a selfie she posted on her Instagram Stories with her face partially obscured. Her curls are bouncy and incredibly healthy, which is actually enough to convince you to schedule a hair treatment to revive your curls.
Millie Bobby Brown
Millie Bobby Brown is leading the contemporary band for the 2023 bob trend with her unique interpretation and distinctive twist of the bob haircut. A significant transformation can be noticed in Millie’s dark brunette micro-bob haircut and fringe. It’s actually very different from her typical Barbie blonde. Millie’s most recent bob cut may be categorized as a stylish French bob with blunt bangs and length rubbing closely with her ears.
Hailey Beiber
The chin-length bob haircut which Hailey Beiber has been sporting recently appears to be the shortest hair she has ever had. It’s adorable to watch Hailey experimenting with a significant hair change, even though we may not have been totally ready for her dramatic chop. Hailey’s iconic shoulder-length ‘bronde’ style has recently been her trademark, but this is the biggest hair transformation she’s made in a while. It’s effortlessly cool and tbh, we are obsessed!
Megan Fox
Megan frequently makes headlines for some of the most fashionable actions ever. Just take a peek at her most recent bob hairstyle! She revealed the new look on an Instagram Story, showing off a layered blonde bob with bangs in a charming selfie. She had previously had long, black hair, but she had decided to try something different; a bob haircut with ombre shades, using darker colors close to her roots that gradually fade into a more honey-blonde hue at the bottom.
Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton’s ’50s bob hairstyle bears a startling resemblance to Marilyn Monroe’s classic appearance. On her Instagram, the new mom was seen sporting a platinum bob hairdo. It’s been entertaining to see celebrities play around with Monroe’s renowned hairstyle, although no one can come exactly close to matching her. However, the bob haircut is quite exquisite and a significant move away from her trademark long blonde hair, despite not being the most dramatic of her hair experiments.
