I Can’t Stop Saving Pictures of the Cloud Bob—Here’s How to Pull Off This Autumn’s Hottest Chop

Cloud Bob.

It's prime bob season again. Yes, the leaves are turning, which means its time to don our cozy jumpers, and perhaps contemplate a back-to-school hair refresh. This time around, the shape that's been trending all over social media is the cloud bob; an ethereal, soft take on the classic cut.

"It's a modern, airy version of the classic bob," explains Mark Hayes, the Senior International Creative Director at HOUSE OF SASSOON. "It’s characterized by a soft, rounded silhouette, light volume, and a pillow-like texture, giving it a fluffy, “cloud-like” appearance."

It’s the antidote to overly polished hair. Effortless but still incredibly chic.”
