What’s that you say? The previous two years were also pronounced the year of the neck-length bob haircut in all its sleek or wavy forms? From the ‘Butterfly Bob‘ to the ‘Bixie’, we’ve been all over it.
We don’t make the rules, but we’re certainly taking our hairdo cues from the world’s most recognisable celebrities and the experts that do their hair. So although we’re only nigh-on three months into the year, we can say for sure – the bob hairstyle is still absolutely dominating beauty trends and red carpets alike.
Throughout history, the bob has remained a timeless haircut that has never gone out of style, and this season only reinforces that fact with its slightly adjustments.
The hallmarks of the 2024 bob are thus: Jaw-skimming, full bodied and voluminous styling with soft waves and movement is the look to love. Feeling playful? Try flipped-out ends. Want something chic? Get those straighteners out and smooth over your blunt-cut style. Feeling fashion-forward? Cut in a wispy or micro-length fringe.
However if you want a little more longevity and versatility, the lob, or long-bob is still on the radar too, a la Eva Longoria and Jennifer Aniston.
Whichever way your wear it, the bob is the cut to embrace right now.
