Naomi Watts' simple but elevated bob look is all the summer styling inspo we need

Naomi Watts is pictured with a wavy bob and wearing sunglasses whilst attending the Exploration of Tactility hosted by Dom Pérignon on July 18, 2024, in Water Mill, New York/ in a pink and purple watercolour paint-style template.

To those who say bobs are restrictive and hard to style, Naomi Watts' wavy twist on the blunt cut is the perfect rebuttal - and it's ideal for those seeking a style that doubles as both an everyday signature and elevated occasion look this season...

If you're considering a short bob hairstyle, or have already committed to the chop, thanks to the 2024 hair trends being packed with fresh updates on the look - like the 'Cowgirl' bob and 'Bell-bottom' bob - but are grasping for ways to style it, we've got some good news. While opting for a sleek finish or flicking out the ends are always good and timeless options, Naomi Watts has just demonstrated another way to tame your short trim - and it's the perfect balance of minimalistic and beachy.
