The Beachy Bob Is the Easy, Breezy and Totally Chic Short Hair Trend to Watch Right Now
If a laid-back summer hairstyle is what you're after, the beachy bob ticks all of the boxes.


When it comes to bob hair trends, it's easy to categorise them into two distinct groups. There are bob hairstyles that look incredible but can take quite a while to recreate (the Monaco bob, we're looking at you), and then there are trends that ooze elegance but are totally effortless. From the French bob to the linen bob, it's clear that we are all after those easy summer hair trends that still look chic, and I think I've just come across the perfect short hair trend for the upcoming months. Say hello to the beachy bob.
As the name suggests, this trend makes your hair look as if you've just stepped out of the water and let the sea air do its thing. It features tousled texture that adds natural waves and movement throughout the ends, giving your bob this effortless, cool-girl finish.
If you're keen to know more, below I've rounded up some of the best beachy bob hairstyles that give me all of the surfer girl vibes. Now I just need a surfboard to complete my look...
