While we all loved Mandy Moore’s wavy, medium-length hair, we love her new layered bob just as much. Her stylist Ashley Streicher updated her look by giving her thick hair more movement and shape. After years of the same hairstyle, her darker and more dramatic cut was the inspiration we needed.

I’m convinced it’s impossible not to love Kristen Bell. As celebrities go, she’s one of the most hilarious and relatable women in Hollywood. For many years, she’s had soft waves, but recently, she majorly changed her hair. She kept her iconic blonde locks, but cut off quite a few inches. She’s now rocking an adorable chin-length blunt bob.

It seems like all brunettes have chopped their hair into a bob in recent months, Lucy Hale included. The Pretty Little Liars star is known for experimenting with many hairstyles and colors, but this may be my favorite. Her longtime hairstylist Kristin Ess cut her hair into a razor-sharp bob. It looks so good, I’m convinced everyone should get this cut.

Dua Lipa

Most hair transformations are intentional, but singer/songwriter Dua Lipa’s latest hairstyle is...accidental? According to her, “This is not a haircut. It’s bleached breakage, but I’m runnin’ with it.” For a hair mishap, I’m impressed. It’s obvious she can pull off edgy bangs. But let this be a warning to all that bleached hair is more likely to experience breakage!

If you’re like me, you’re an avid fan of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. One of its stars, Kyle Richards, has a new set of bangs. She’s always had long, dark hair, but we haven’t seen her with straight-across bangs since she starred in Halloween. Her wispy bangs are so versatile. In addition to wearing them straight-across, she can also wear them swept to the side or parted down the middle.

Her stylist, Adir Abergel, said the bangs were inspired by young Audrey Hepburn. If you’re wanting to steal Ronan’s micro-bangs look, make sure your stylist leaves you with a soft, feathery finish.
