The Celebrity Hairstyle of 2014 is the Bob — Yup, We're Already Saying It
We’re only weeks into the new year, but as far as celebrity beauty goes, it’s becoming increasingly clear than 2014 will be the year of the bob. Countless stars have chopped off their hair over the last several weeks — the most recent being American Horror Story star Sarah Paulson, who debuted her bob haircut cut at Saturday’s SAG Awards. Soft or blunt, long or short, the bob is the look to wear in Hollywood this year, and these 10 stars are showing everyone how to do it the right way.
Kristen Wiig
This isn’t the first time we’ve seen funny lady Kristen Wiig with a bob cut, but the new look — which she debuted at The Spoils of Babylon premiere in Los Angeles — is the shortest (and darkest) we’ve seen her hair in a long time.
Kelly Osbourne
Fashion Police host Kelly Osbourne has been sporting a purple-gray hue for a while now, but she’s finally changed up her look with a sleek new bob that’s perfect for her edgy style.
Hayden Panettiere
Osbourne hasn’t been the only star to rock a sleek bob lately. Nashville star Hayden Panettiere showed off her new chopped hair in a similarly sleek fashion at the 2014 Golden Globes.
Angela Bassett
Rather than cropping her hair, actress Angela Bassett has actually grown her locks out to nail a beautiful bob, making waves with her classy and curly style.
Zosia Mamet
Zosia Mamet may play a precocious 20-something on HBO’s hit show Girls, but she looks all grown up with a new blunt, sophisticated bob.
Reese Witherspoon
Complete with wispy bangs, Reese Witherspoon’s asymmetrical cut looked light and dreamy when she debuted the fresh ‘do at this year’s Golden Globes.
Michelle Dockery
The Downton Abbey star is no stranger to short cuts, but with her sweeping bangs and shiny strands, she never fails to remind us how chic a chin-length bob can be.
Kate Mara
For a two-in-one surprise, the House of Cards actress recently debuted brighter, beach-blond locks and a wavy, cropped hairstyle.
Queen Latifah
Just in time for the People’s Choice Awards, Queen Latifah debuted a polished and super-chic asymmetrical bob that may be the classiest cut we’ve ever seen her wear.
