Italian bob
“The Italian bob has that chic, voluminous look with soft layers that give it a relaxed, lived-in feel,” says Nino, who predicts it’ll remain a big trend in 2025. Celebrity hairstylist Ricky Mota especially loves the Italian bob for spring “because it embodies effortless sophistication with a chic, relaxed vibe. Its popularity aligns with the season’s fresh, playful energy and the increasing embrace of low-maintenance styles that still look polished.”
Mota says the versatile cut requires minimal styling and evokes classic icons like Christy Turlington and Monica Bellucci. “To style the look, start by blow drying using one of my favorite volumizing sprays, UNITE EXPANDA Volume ($37), to achieve root lift and full-body, and SMOOTH&SHINE Styling Cream ($34) for softness and shine.”
“The Italian bob is a short, blunt cut that should be worn with a more effortless texture. You will want to ask your stylist for a one length bob, no layering, no elevation. The key to this bob is the heaviness,” says celebrity Hairstylist and R+Co Collective Member Ashley Streicher. “When cut to perfection, it can be worn styled or messy and looks great either way! To take this style to the next level, use R+Co BLEU’s new Ultra Dry Texture Spray ($49) to enhance texture.”
