Long Hair Is Out, And These Ladies Show Us Why We Need To Embrace Shorter Hair
I had a hair appointment last week, and when I sat down in the stylist's chair, he took one look at my long, wavy locks and shook his head. "Long hair is out." Ouch. "What you need is a long bob," he told me. Whoa, whoa. Let's not get scissor-happy here. My hair is like my safety net, there's just no way. So I left with a healthy trim, and a big sigh of relief. But I can't deny, while perusing the internet, thumbing through my September issues, and flipping TV channels, it's true — long is out, short is in.
And it might be for good reason. It's low maintenance, requires less styling time, and looks fresh and modern. So whether you are like me and contemplating taking the plunge, or have already embraced the new it style, let's all take a moment to admire the ladies who rock the cropped cut — no safety net needed.
Karlie Kloss
It wouldn’t be a short hair slideshow without mentioning the woman behind ”The Karlie”. Her infamous ‘do is so fantastic, it’s even got it’s own name.
Taylor Swift
T-Swift is reinventing herself for her new album, 1989, and her wavy bob is the perfect way to usher in the new era.
Emma Stone
Emma Stone has generally kept her hair on the shorter side, but at this year’s Venice Film Festival, she turned heads with an even shorter, bobbed version, proving she’s every inch the classic movie star.
Lily Collins
Lily Collins does a more dramatic take on short hair, with her rich brunette locks, bold eye makeup, and a deep red lipstick.
Elle Fanning
The adorable actress delivered a double shocker this week — cutting her long hair into a bob and dying it brown. Talk about guts.
January Jones
The classic beauty and Mad Men actress always keeps her short hair fun, sexy, and tousled, channeling the ’60s even when she’s not costumed up á la Betty Draper.
Kiernan Shipka
And January Jones’ on-screen daughter isn’t any less eye-catching. The 14-year-old actress proves that the new hair trend has no age limit.
Jennifer Lawrence
Duh. No caption needed.
Emma Watson
Watson was one of the first stars to make headlines for chopping her hair into a pixie cut a few years ago, and even though it’s grown out, she still perfects a short style.

Even the woman with possibly the most iconic hair of all time has embraced the new trend.
Britney Spears
The queen of pop gave her seal of approval on the bob this week in Germany.
