I'm Sharing This—The "Waterfall Bob" is set to be the Trendiest Hairstyle of the Summer.

      Although bob hairstyles remain among the top hair trends of the season, I still haven't been swayed to make that cut. Every time I catch a glimpse of a stylish blunt bob or an asymmetrical cut, a part of me considers, "I'd like to try that," but ultimately, I realize it just isn't for me. I've had long hair for as long as I can remember, and I enjoy styling it in loose, relaxed waves, especially during summer. One hair trend I'm particularly fond of is "waterfall" waves. You know, those effortlessly flowing curls that appear so smooth, shiny, and fluid? I'm definitely reaching for my favorite curling wand and shine spray every day to achieve that look. So, when I saw a certain celebrity sporting what I've dubbed the waterfall bob, it was the first time in a while that I seriously considered cutting my hair. The celebrity in question? Carey Mulligan, of course.

      Arguably one of the best celebrity bob hairstyles ever, Carey's shorter cut always looks fashionable, but these natural-looking waterfall waves add a sophisticated summer touch to her blonde bob. This haircut is so well done that I foresee it becoming one of the most sought-after bob hairstyles of the summer. Below, I’ve gathered more waterfall bob inspiration, so keep scrolling to see the looks.
