The Bob: The Cut That Flatters Everyone

The bob has taken over the red carpet — and for good reason, as it's flattering on almost everyone. But what should you know before you hit the salon? We visited Ramirez Tran salon in Beverly Hills and met with celebrity hairstylist Anh Co Tran (who cut Coco Rocha's now famous pixie cut) on the emerging bob trend of 2014.

The good news? Every face shape and every hair type can work a bob! But how you get it cut matters. Ask for texture toward the ends with layers in the back to give a lived-in, messy look that doesn't look too perfect. That will modernize your cut and keep you looking cool and effortless like Alexa Chung. Plus, check out these celebrities who recently got the big chop for inspiration.
