Jessica Biel Just Upgraded Her Bob In The Most Summer 2024 Way Possible
Cementing the fact that our fascination with the bob isn't going anywhere this summer, Jessica Biel is the latest in a string of unexpected celebrities to eschew her signature long layers for the reigning short crop.
Earlier this summer, the Rules Of Attraction actor took to social media to showcase her veritable transformation as her long layers seemingly disappeared to reveal a shiny-new short 'do. In the TikTok post, she showed a before-and-after transition, which featured the 'Why are you so obsessed with me?' lyrics, where she revealed a chin-grazing and poker straight bob and a strong middle parting.

Now, in an Instagram post shared by Adir Abergel, the hairdresser has unveiled a fresh, summer-approved iteration of her blunt bob. From the sunkissed, caramel ends which frame her face to the very soft textured layers throughout, it's the embodiment of peak-summer hairstyle inspiration.
Sitting somewhere between a razor sharp straight bob (poker straight with no movement) and a textured 'choppy' bob (tousled, layered and wavy), Biel's summer 'do looks effortless and beachy. 'It's a great progression for anyone who might not want to commit to micro-short lengths or those who are growing one out. It’s flattering and has great style versatility,' shares celebrity celebrity hairstylist, Sam McKnight, MBE.
To create it, focus on creating volume around the mid-lengths using a tool or, in keeping with the beachy texture, you can simply apply a salt spray to emulate the tousled effect. 'To keep this ‘do feeling modern, keep the ends a little straighter and then tip your head upside down, misting in some Cool Girl (Barely There Texture Mist) into the roots and through hair for quick volume; you can even flip your parting to the other side for instant volume,' shares McKnight.
Zendaya, Lily Collins and Gigi Hadid are among a growing number of celebrities who have ditched their long lengths for summer 2024 and hailed a textured bob as the hairstyle du rigeur. Why? It's hot-weather appropriate; it looks instantly effortless and, aside from the regular upkeep at your hairdressers, it's pretty low maintenance when it comes to styling, too.
