Some hairstyles we can all get behind, and the blunt bob and her super-chic baby sister, the short blunt bob, are really calling our name for 2024.

Offering more definition than a traditional blunt bob, but without losing that hard edge in a nape bob or a textured French bob, it’s a short, sweet alternative that’ll never go out of style.

Reminiscent of a scandi bob, the short blunt bob is appealing for its hard lines that frame the face to showcase a strong neckline with that one-length finish.

Seen on the likes of Dua Lipa, Lily Allen and Greta Lee, this versatile hairstyle can be dressed up or down for any occasion.

Celebrity hair stylist Katie Allan, founder of Mayfive Hair, is on-hand to tell us how to perfect this chic look and, most importantly, style it at home after that all-important salon appointment.
