Jesinta Franklin recently showcased her new sleek bob on Instagram, and it has us all contemplating a haircut. Known for her impeccable style, Franklin’s latest look is nothing short of stunning. The bob was crafted by Melbourne hairstylist Marie Uva, who also styles other Australian celebrities like Maria Thattil, Carrie Bickmore, and Megan Gale.
Franklin’s new cut, which skims her jawline, is both fresh and sharp. For those who have experienced a major haircut, the lightness of Franklin’s new look is almost palpable through the screen. Over the past few years, Franklin has sported longer hair, but her previous blunt bob and pixie cut phases remind us of her affinity for shorter styles. It seems she is embracing short hair once again, encouraging us to consider a similar change.
In a 2019 interview with ELLE Australia, shortly after she cut her hair into a pixie style, Franklin expressed her love for shorter hair but mentioned a desire to grow it out a bit. She remarked, “It’s so easy. I think I might grow it out a tiny bit, because it’s very short at the moment, just for something different. But, I really love it. It’s just so easy—even just washing it, styling it, it reduces the amount of time it takes me to get ready when I do hair and makeup. I love it, it’s very easy.”
Given Franklin’s past styles and her current sleek bob, it’s clear that the polished bob might be her signature look. While her longer and shorter styles are also admired, this latest cut stands out as a perfect blend of elegance and simplicity. Inspired by Franklin’s transformation, it seems many of us might be calling our stylists for a trim.
