The bob haircut, and all its iterations (Italian bob, French bob, boyfriend bob, to name just a few), is the hair trend that’s here to stay. You can spot versions of the bob on celebrities including Carey Mulligan, Cate Blanchett and Kerrie Washington, who have long championed shorter styles, while recent converts include Margot Robbie and Emma Stone.
The beauty of a bob, according to expert stylists, is that there’s an iteration to suit every hair type and texture. It’s a common misconception that hairstyles for fine hair need to be long, when in fact you can create the illusion of thickness and volume with a well-cut (and styled) bob.
