We're only one month into the new year and already five stars have gotten the big chop—and the sixth took place last night.
Jessica Alba sported a fresh crop at the Stand Up to Cancer event in Los Angeles, but not before debuting the shorter cut on Instagram a few hours earlier. Celebrity hairstylist Jen Atkin posted a collage of what she called the "fashion bob," which showed every angle (front, back and side) so followers could get a 360 look at the haircut. According to Jen—and she would know since it is her masterpiece—the defining features of this particular shoulder-length cut are the "textured ends" and "long front."
These types of specifics are important to know in case you wanted to copy the style. Because, let's be honest, at this point it looks like we're all going to end up with some sort of bob in 2014.
