With summer almost here, the hunt for low-maintenance yet adorable hairstyles is on! We’re talking about those styles that require minimal effort but scream summer vibes in every selfie.

The Wild West craze has been riding high for a while now. Pharrell Williams even brought the frontier to the runway during Paris Fashion Week, serving up a sizzling slice of cowboy cool complete with wide-brimmed hats and statement buckles.
And it’s not just fashion feeling the cowboy fever. Isamaya Ffrench’s makeup line dropped the Wild Star collection, promising to unleash your inner cowgirl. Meanwhile, TikTok sensation Dasha’s tune “Austin” and Queen Bey’s latest country singles “Texas Hold ‘Em” and “16 Carriages” are setting the stage for a western revival.
But let’s talk tresses. The year 2023 witnessed a stampede of cowgirl copper hues flooding Instagram feeds. And London hairstylist Luke Hersheson saddled up the Wild West trend with the cowgirl cut – the foregoer to the cowgirl bob.
So, what sets the cowgirl bob apart? Imagine merging the cuteness of a French bob with the laid-back vibes of a shag cut, and voila! You’ve got the cowgirl bob – a shorter, textured masterpiece full of movement. And who better to pioneer this trend than the ever-stunning Megan Fox, sporting the look paired with a rich espresso martini hue?

Now, if you’re considering joining the cowgirl clan, here’s the lowdown. The cowgirl bob is for those who adore effortless chic. It’s a match made in heaven for those living life on the go – easy to maintain yet oozing with style. And fear not, you don’t need spurs and a lasso to rock that windswept texture!
When hitting the salon, ask for a full, one-length bob with just a touch of texturizing for that extra oomph. Consider opting for piecey bangs, reminiscent of Megan Fox’s style, which will create a striking contrast with the blunt edge. Alternatively, if you’re not quite ready for bangs, you can skip them altogether – the cowgirl bob looks equally fantastic without them.

Now, onto styling. Embrace texture with a slight flip at the ends. If your locks are straight, consider using a curler or flat iron to add a subtle bend. And for those with fine strands, a root lift spray will give your mane the boost it deserves. Seal the deal with a spritz of texture spray, and you’ve got yourself the ultimate Wild West ‘do!
So, saddle up, partner! With the cowgirl bob, you’ll be ready to wrangle those summer vibes with style and sass!
