Penelope Cruz

As she launched her new Atelier Swarovski collection in London, which features precision-cut Swarovski created diamonds and gemstones, Penelope also showed off a gorgeous new gem of a haircut. Parted in the middle and with subtle highlights, the Oscar-winning actress' hairstyle had a '60s vibe with subtle volume and a gentle curl inward at the ends.

Kylie Jenner

The youngest Kardashian-Jenner went for sleek and sexy, with a long bob – also known as a "lob" that fell just to her shoulders. Here she has her locks partially swept up with a scrunchie and with the ends gently curled upwards 1960s-style.

Kaia Gerber

"The Drama Cut." That's how Kaia named her new haircut created by Guido Palau and stylist Sandy Hullet. The chin-length cut and sculpted layers bring a lot of movement to the style, which especially suits those with square-shaped faces or strong jawlines.

Reese Witherspoon

Let's just say Reese is "legally bobbed!" This shoulder length wavy bob is the shortest the star has gone in quite a while. The Big Little Lies star shared her new look on social media and thanked her hairdresser Lona Vigi for the wonderful result.

Julia Roberts

Julia Roberts' stylist Serge Normant was responsible for this bob with honey blonde locks. It stands out for its soft waves and subtle cut, being longer in the front – hitting just at the collarbone – and cut above the shoulders in the back. The key to getting Julia's look is a curling iron and a texturizing spray.

Kim Kardashian

Another diva that surprised with a bob was Kim Kardashian, with fans actually thinking she was wearing a wig. But her hairstylist and BFF Chris Appleton's scissors were responsible for this blunt bob, a perfect style for oval faces. And hair trend fans take note – if more than one Kardashian-Jenner wears it, it's not only a trend, it's a SUPER trend.
