The "Wob" Haircut, And Why Should You Consider Rocking It ASAP (Hint: Because Beyonce)
The "wob" may sound like a Nicki Minaj-inspired dance move or a euphemism for losing balance, but it's actually the name for Hollywood's latest trendy hairstyle. According to Stylecaster, the "wob" is a "a wavy, chin or shoulder sweeping look [that] enhances tousled tresses with effortless romantic curls." It's that sultry, messy, yet elegant look you've been seeing take over your favorite celebrities' heads, from Beyonce to Jennifer Lawrence. The wob is a welcome upgrade from the popular bob and lob of the last year. But instead of wearing your locks sleek and straight, windblown-esque waves are added for that extra oomph of body and edge. And here's the best part about it: It's painfully easy to style and suits all face shapes. Need a little more convincing? Here are 12 photographic reasons to rock fall's "wob."
