Looking at These 26 Blonde Bobs Made Me Cut My Hair

Being experimental with your hair doesn't necessarily mean that you have to go all-out with new hues, statement fringing, or lashings of layers. Often, the simplest switches make the most impact, and with a new decade on the fast approach, now is the ideal time to think about shaking up your look. 

For me, this was a cut. I recently chopped off my lengthy blonde hair to join the bob brigade. A few weeks back, after researching for a feature on blunt bob hairstyles, I convinced myself to go for the chop, which was masterfully created by session stylist Jenn Linton of Linton & Mac.

My new blonde bob makes its debut. 

And guess what? I've found it to be one of the best decisions I've made this year. Not only does my new blonde bob take half the drying time that it used to, but somehow, it also makes everything I wear look significantly cooler. 

I'm not the only one who sings the blonde bob's praises. Keep scrolling to see the best blonde bob hairstyles on influencers and A-listers alike.
