A Bob Is a Powerful Thing—It CanEvenMake This "Dated" Hair Colour Feel Sleek and Modern

Something I've noticed over the past few months is that people talk a lot about different bob hairstyles and haircuts, but no one really focuses on the colour of a bob. We all know that this trending short haircut is going nowhere, and in my opinion, pairing it with a statement hair colour takes your look to a whole other level. While there are so many shades to try this season, one particular hue that I can't get enough of is ashy blonde.

For years, ashy blonde hair was the cool-girl colour of choice, making a bold statement yet looking super chic all at the same time. However, like all good things, its reign came to an end, and although it never really went away, it took something of a backseat to warmer blonde tones—the sort that have dominated the loghter hair colour scene for the past few seasons.

Now. however, ash blonde is on the rise again, and pairing this icy shade with a shorter, blunter bob haircut is perhaps the most stylish combination I've seen heading into the new season.

I've spotted the ashy bob on celebrities and fashion insiders alike, and I personally think it's an ideal look for autumn as it'll instantly brighten your complexion and work as a contrast against more neutral outfits. I mean, just imagine this hairstyle paired with a chunky cream cashmere knit. Sound good? Keep on scrolling for all the inspo...
