Long hair has its time and place, but short hair will always be chic. The versatility of your hair and what you can do with it is endless, especially when it comes to bob-length hair. From short mini twists to blunt cuts, there’s always a style to test out and obsess over. No matter what curl pattern, the styles are more than a trend: they celebrate beauty and culture.
