POV: you just discovered your hair goals for 2026 are actually achievable. The bob is here to stay, but this time it’s not about spending hours in front of the mirror. It’s about effortless chic and vibes that scream “I woke up like this.” I caught up with Izzy Warren, a pro at Hershesons Fitzrovia, and she dropped the six bob trends that’ll be everywhere this season. Spoiler: none of them require a hairdresser every week.
First up: the beachy bob. Think tousled ends, zero effort, and the kind of hair that looks like you just stepped out of the ocean (but in a very chic way). Warren says it’s perfect for lazy days—or any day you want to feel like you’re on vacation. All you need is a texturising spray and a little patience. No need to fake it; this look is all about real movement.
Next, the shaggy lob. It’s the middle ground between a bob and a lob, with curtain bangs and a lived-in feel. Warren called it the “fresh 2026” vibe, and honestly, it’s so versatile. If you’re not ready to go short, this is your happy place. Pair it with a lightweight spray for that natural, “I just woke up” texture.
Then there’s the tuft bob. It’s basically a mix of a blunt bob, a pixie, and a mullet, but way more cool. Small tufts flicked outwards? Yes, please. Warren says it’s effortlessly chic and perfect for those who want to stay edgy without going full avant-garde. Pro tip: use a small straightener to define the ends and a cream for texture.
💫 And if you’re into the Hollywood bob.
For the slicked-back bob, it’s all about the outline. Warren says it’s versatile—wet-look or messy, it’s a win. Just grab a gel and a stick for on-the-go flyaways. And if you’re into the Hollywood bob? Think red-carpet vibes, side parts, and a little vintage glam. It’s polished, but not too much.
Key points: 1. Beachy bob = low-maintenance, high-vibe. 2. Tuft bob = chic, effortless, and so on-trend. 3. Hollywood bob = timeless, but don’t forget the shine spray.
