The Italian bob strikes the perfect balance between effortless and stylish. “This timeless short haircut, which originated in Italy, draws inspiration from the elegant yet bold vibe of the 1960s,” explains celebrity hairstylist Rossano Ferretti.

To achieve this style, ask your hairstylist for a chin-length bob with minimal layers, creating a clean and structured appearance, says Ferretti. “This haircut blends glamour with effortless charm, making it the ideal choice to embrace ‘la dolce vita’ this season
Birkin Bangs
Helen Reavey, celebrity hairstylist and founder of Act+Acre, notes that retro styles, such as Daisy Edgar Jones’s Jane Birkin-inspired bangs, are making a comeback. “Old Hollywood and vintage-inspired haircuts are experiencing a resurgence due to a growing desire for timeless elegance and glamour,” she explains.

Depending on your hair type, you can opt for a more blunt cut for your Birkin bangs to give the trend a modern twist. “In today’s fast-moving trend cycle, many are attracted to these iconic styles that bring a sense of nostalgia and elegance. It’s a versatile, polished look that still manages to stand out,” says Reavey.
Whisper Pixie
Celebrity hairstylist Danielle Priano, who coined the term “whisper pixie” and created the cut for model Taylor Hill, explains that the name was inspired by blending something delicate and ethereal (whisper) with something playful and magical (pixie), much like the essence of the classic pixie cut itself.

If you’re looking for a similar style, Priano advises having a clear conversation with your stylist. “Pointing out specific details, like ‘short and layered with a soft, feathered texture around the edges,’ can help convey exactly what you’re aiming for.”
Beach Bob
Celebrity hairstylist Marc Mena crafted this effortless lob for Madelyn Cline. Maddy and I drew inspiration from the beaches of Barcelona, aiming for a look that was versatile with a beachy feel,” Mena explains. “At the same time, we wanted something low-maintenance and easy to manage at home, while still maintaining a conservative style.

This haircut is meant to be effortless, easily styled with either a middle part or a tousled side part. It’s also long enough to be styled into an updo, such as a ponytail or low bun. Mena suggests adding face-framing layers to create angles. “The top layers and texture will prevent it from looking flat,” he explains.
Old Hollywood Bob
Old Hollywood hair has been a standout style on the red carpet in recent months—and for good reason. “One of the best things about these vintage-inspired cuts, particularly the lob, is that they can be customized to flatter nearly any face shape,” says Reavey. “A longer bob with a gentle wave or side part can soften angular features, while a sleek, straight lob helps elongate rounder face shapes.”

A lot of people are seeking more versatile styles that can easily transition between different occasions, and longer bobs and mid-length cuts provide more styling options,” says Reavey. “It’s the perfect in-between length—short enough to feel fresh, yet long enough for styling in curls or waves. As we approach cooler months, people also appreciate the flexibility of pulling their hair back or layering it under scarves and coats.
Tousled Deconstructed Bob
Frédéric Fekkai, the owner of a New York City-based salon, loves the deconstructed bob for its versatility. “This style offers the flexibility of adding bangs or leaving them out, with a square bob shape and jagged, textured edges that give it a natural, slightly messy look,” he explains. “The key is to maintain healthy, shiny hair with an organic feel. To achieve the tousled look, use the Full Blown Volume Dry Texturizing Spray for extra texture and the Brilliant Gloss Anti-Frizz Oil Serum for added shine.”
