Bobs Always Look Chic, But Grey Bobs Are a Whole Other Level of Sophistication
Remember when people would stop at nothing to hide their grey hairs? From at-home hair dyes to root cover-ups, the options were endless and brands kept coming up with new ways to encourage us to mask them. However, these days I'd like to think that there is less stigma around the subject of going grey, with more and more women embracing their natural hair colour and showing off just how good it can look. In fact, over the last few years I've even seen people choosing to dye their hair grey as the icy shade grows in popularity. Not only that, but more and more brands are bringing out products to actually enhance grey hair, from shampoos to conditioners and even masks. I'm very glad the industry seems to have turned that corner.
Now, if there's one hairstyle that looks good with this colour, it's a bob. I don't know about you, but I happen to think that a grey bob looks so chic. There's something about the shorter haircut and cool-toned hair colour that gives off an effortlessly cool vibe. Apparently I'm not the only one to think this, as lots of celebs have chosen to get the chop over the years while embracing their natural shade. Don't believe me? Keep on scrolling for some of my favourite grey bob hairstyles to add to your inspo folder...
