The popularity of shoulder-grazing bobs shows no signs of fading. From subtle French girl styles to edgy choppy cuts, this hairstyle has captured the attention of many celebrities.
Camila Cabello recently swapped her long hair for a trendy ‘Birkin bob.’ Kendall Jenner has also embraced the platinum bob, a style that Beyoncé adopted back in September. ELLE editors have their own versions of the bob, ranging from chin-length cuts to styles featuring full fringes.
The latest celebrity to join the bob trend is Selena Gomez. For the Academy Museum Gala, she made a quick switch from longer waves to a short, sixties-inspired bob. This new look features flipped ends that delicately hover above her shoulders. Gomez paired the hairstyle with steel grey smoky eyes and glossy lips, thanks to makeup artist Hung Vanngo. She wore a floor-length Alaïa gown that highlighted her hourglass figure, creating an overall polished and sophisticated appearance.
While the hairstyle draws inspiration from past decades, hairstylist Marissa Marino kept it modern and fresh. She achieved this sleek look with a side part and a glossy finish, ensuring not a single hair was out of place. Marino, who is an ambassador for Fekkai haircare, used primarily Fekkai products to create Gomez’s look.
For those questioning whether Gomez truly cut her hair, it appears likely. The “Only Murders In The Building” star showcased a similar bob at the BAFTA screening of her film, Emilia Pérez, although it had a fuller and softer appearance.
Bobs dominated the red carpet at the Academy Museum Gala, with stars like Hannah Einbinder, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, and Elizabeth Banks sporting glamorous versions of the style. Chrissy Teigen also debuted her own bob transformation, featuring a voluminous, Old Hollywood-inspired look.
