In case you haven't noticed, the beauty world is obsessed with bob hairstyles again. Shoulder-grazing haircuts were spotted across the Fall 2025 New York Fashion Week circuit while celebrities like Kim Kardashian and Kerry Washington have also committed to a shorter length in recent months. Next up: Gabrielle Union, the latest star to step out in a chopped hairstyle, who proved the bob is here to stay while attending the 2025 NAACP Image Awards on February 22.
For the red carpet, the actor's short hair was styled by longtime hairstylist Larry Sims into a mega-bouncy, voluminous look with subtle waves. With a length hitting right at Union's jawline and soft, flippy waves, the style is very similar to the classic French bob that's shaping up to be a big 2025 hair trend. The major body, deep side part, and curly front piece added even more Old Hollywood allure to Union's look.
