The celebs have spoken—and it's out with the man bun and in with the man lob.

As evidenced by stars like Jourdan Dunn, Kate Bosworth and the queen of the long bob herself, Lauren Conrad, the lob is the hairstyle du jour in Hollywood. Of course, great style knows no gender—and leading men now want a piece-y cut of the action.

"I think a lot of cool, edgy celebrities are getting it, everyone from Jared Leto to Steven Tyler to even Johnny Depp," said celeb hairstylist Anthony Holguin. "It's just such a great trend for anyone. It's versatile and works for women and men."

The only thing you need?

"You definitely have to have longer hair—past the shoulders—to get this look," noted Anthony.

"I feel like [this hairstyle] blew up in the ‘90s, and it's going to keep blowing up again and again," said the hair pro. "Remember Brad Pitt in the '80s? You just need that one cool person to rock it."

Get it! Be that person.
