When I asked celebrity hairstylist and Global Creative Director of Color Wow, Dom Seeley, why we’re all obsessed with right now (myself included) he told me, “Bobs are bigger than ever at the moment due to how versatile and easy they are to play around with. They’re effortless, chic, and timeless but also a fun, easy way to change up your look and style.” While this definitely applies to chic bob styles, from the to the , the latest trending bob cut may just take top spot as the chicest, most versatile and appealing bob style of all.
Yes, the 'crob', or cropped bob, is the only haircut I want to know right now. “The beauty of this shape is it works on all hair types as long as it's tailored to you with your stylist,” says Seeley. So, with that in mind, I’ve compiled a guide on everything you need to know about the crob cut, as well as some great cropped bob inspo to show to your stylist so you can get the perfect crob for you.
“The crop, or cropped bob, leans more towards the 90s shapes than other bob haircuts,” says Seeley. “It’s layered, texturised and chic. When visiting the salon, bring reference photos so you can show your stylist the kind of vibe and direction you want your bob to go into.
You can choose the length, but preferably the sweet spot for a crob is the high neck/chin area. With this style, we want to steer clear from super-solid, blunt lines, so you can keep one length, but make sure the baseline of the cut has softness. You also want to.
