Shaggy bob explained: the effortlessly cool style that’s trending for 2023

It’s out with the sleek styles, as this season the shaggy bob is tipped to be the hottest hair trend around. Already proving popular among the celebrity circuit, Isabelle Hubbert, Lizzo and Selena Gomez are just a few of the A-listers who have recently experimented with this style, sporting a short shag cut that’s full of texture and body.

One of the most flattering bob hairstyles to try, this style combines the rebellious shag haircut with 2023’s most in-demand length (short, of course) to create a cool, mussed-up look. “The shaggy bob is a modern iteration of the classic bob,” says David Dossola, senior stylist at Neville Hair & Beauty, “distinguishable by its choppy layers and texture, this haircut is loved for its effortless effect.”
