Bubble bob explained: will this season’s chicest crop work for you?

Kerry washington on the red carpet with a bubble bob haircut

Another week, another trending bob, and this time it’s the bubble bob. Made famous by Winona Ryder and Natalie Portman in the ‘90s, this bouncy short haircut is making a comeback. Already spotted on several A-listers (including Ciara, Kerry Washington, and Elsa Hosk), expect to see this chic crop everywhere. 

“The bubble bob, as its name suggests, is a variation of the classic bob hairstyle but with a bouncy and bubble-like appearance,” explains David Dossola, senior stylist at Neville Hair and Beauty. Taking its cue from the ‘90s, Ryan Humpage, style master at STIL salon, believes this is one of the reasons it’s so popular today. “The ‘90s influence has come back around in music, fashion, and TV, so it’s not surprising to see this short hairstyle take off again.”
