Margot Robbie’s new hair: Why does the world hate it when famous women get a bob?
Firstly, not all bobs are created equal. As hairstylist Kira Hellsten points out, Robbie’s new bob may simply be badly styled. “It does look very lacklustre – almost flat, and wet,” she says. There’s also a problem that arises with mid-length bobs, where it can feel like someone hasn’t fully committed to the chop. “If you’re too scared to go fully above shoulders, it can look like you’re trying to grow something out,” Hellsten says. “So you have to make it look like it’s a very intentional haircut.”
