When it comes to bob hair trends, we all know that the French bob has been in style for a while now. This chic, relaxed hairstyle is totally timeless, and while I'm still a big fan of the look, I've spotted a breakout trend that is set to become the new French bob this summer.
As a beauty editor, it's my job to predict the biggest hair trends of the season, and over the years, I've become an expert at seeking out short hairstyles that are set to take over. One person that I always take inspiration from is model and creator, Amy Lefévre (@lefevrediary). I am always writing about her chic French bob (we like to think of her as the French bob it-girl), but lately I've noticed that she's swapped her signature hairstyle for a cool, edgy hair trend that I'm obsessed with. Say hello to the mullet bob.
In true mullet fashion, this bob hairstyle features shorter layers on the top and sides of the hair, with longer layers at the back. It works perfectly with a fringe and gives me all of the effortless, laid-back vibes.
Below, I've rounded up more mullet bob hair inspiration, and I highly recommend having a look to get ahead of this season's coolest bob hair trend.
