Short, minimalist hairstyles are experiencing a resurgence in popularity. The ‘Slip Bob’ has emerged as a major trend, drawing inspiration from the 1990s supermodel aesthetic. This style is characterized by shoulder-length, airy layers that provide movement and an ‘understated glamour’ with minimal maintenance.

Following this trend, other short styles such as the ‘Scandi bob’ and the rounded pageboy are also gaining traction. The Scandi bob emphasizes a minimalist, effortless look that embraces natural textures, while the modern rounded pageboy focuses on soft, curved lines and natural volume to frame the face.
