Trust Me, the Tuft Bob Is About to Be the Next Big Thing

I don’t want to toot my own horn, but I’ve written about (and predicted) some pretty big hair trends over the years. From the serrated bob to the molten brunette hair colour trend and even the comeback of ’90s face-framing layers, I’d say I’m pretty good at staying on top of the next big thing, which is why I’m telling everyone to keep the “tuft bob” top of mind this season. My beauty editor senses are tingling, and something’s telling me that this short haircut is about to be everywhere.

What Is the Tuft Bob?

So, what is the tuft bob, I hear you ask? I like to think of it as a hybrid between a blunt bob and a mullet bob. It has a short, choppy feel, but is characterised by a small “tuft” of hair at the back. The ends of the bob are flicked outwards to emphasise this, creating a chic, almost preppy appearance that feels bang on trend for this time of year.
