ICYMI, there is a fresh new energy in town when it comes to hairstyles to covert in 2021. The wob or a wavy bob, a chin or shoulder-sweeping style of hair has been adopted by numerous A-listers, from Margot Robbie to Jacqueline Fernandez and Anushka Sharma.
Jacqueline Fernandez
Looking at this chic 'do, it's easy to understand why it is shaping up to be a celebrity favourite. Not only does it enhance touseled tresses and curls, it is also youthful, easy to style yet at the same time trendy and smart, adding a touch of je ne sais quoi to any outfit choice. Not only that, a wob adds dimension to all face shapes. Over the past year, the pandemic has changed our approach to beauty and fashion as we know it, making us in equal parts yearn for some freshness and style, and at the same time prioritise the ease of low-maintenance looks. And that's exactly why the wob works so well right now, being a versatile style lends as easily to old-Hollywood glam as it does to fuss-free off-duty styling. No wonder it's been adopted by new mums Anushka Sharma and Kareena Kapoor, as well as red-carpet regulars such as Jennifer Lawrence and Margot Robbie. Here are 7 cool and stylish, celebrity-inspired ways to wear a wob. *Runs with reference pics to hairstylist at once*.
Fuss-free natural waves are Anushka's style of choice, as seen here sported by the actor as she spends a day out in London.
Deepika wears her hair with a hint of carefully-styled vollume, resulting in a look that is soft-yet-glam.
Margot's loosely-crimped waves can be naturally styled into place (all you need a few pumps of the right product), or created with a pair of wide-barreled tongs in a few deft twirls.
Kareena's stylist has given her sharp, edgy ends, resulting in a look that is structured, modern and falls at a naturally-angled edge.
Jaqueline oomphs up her hair and channels some *serious* Maryline Monroe energy with her new, layered cut.
Loosely- tonged curls add freshness and romance to Bhumi's should-length bob.
Jennifer rounds-off our list with a structured cut of perfectly-touselled, beachy, chin length waves.
