The bob – celeb style

If there is one hairstyle that has defined 2011 it has to be the bob. From style crush Alexa Chung to Radio 1 DJ Fearne Cotton, to Pirates of the Caribbean actress Keira Knightley and pop star Jessie J, the bob has graced many a red carpet as the celebs have all embraced the style. It is definitely one of the most popular 2011 hairstyles.
What’s more, it is an incredibly versatile look – you don’t just have to go for a short bob to get the look. Instead you can work it in a variety of lengths and styles.
For a relaxed boho look you could channel Alexa Chung’s shaggy style bob which falls a few centimetres past her chin. Alexa shows that a bob doesn’t have to be poker straight to look good and instead styles hers with boho waves. Keira Knightley shows that a bob can be worn smooth and sleek or with curls and waves, as she has shaken up her style a number of times on the red carpet.
If you don’t want to go too short you could take inspiration from Fearne Cotton, who in the summer opted for a Lob (or long bob). Her laid back look skimmed her shoulders and looked uber glam, while Jessie J is known for her sharp cut bob and blunt fringe.
As the celebs prove, the bob is a truly versatile look and can be easily changed to suit your mood. What’s more, it is really easy to achieve different looks – you just need to get a pair of hair straighteners from ghd. The ghd styler has a rounded barrel so can be used to create a number of looks from smooth and sleek straight bobs to curly bobs like Keira Knightley or shaggy and dishevelled like Alexa Chung.
What’s more, because the cut is so versatile there is bound to be a bob style that will suit any face shape or age.
