Kim Tae-ri, Kim Go-eun, Nana, Song Hye-kyo, and Go Joon-hee are prime examples.
Kim Tae-ri boldly cut her hair for her role in the currently popular drama “Jeongnyeon: A Star Is Born”. Kim Go-eun once said in an interview, “I cut my hair into a bob because I had done too much dyeing and perming.” In Nana’s case, she gained popularity by changing her image with a curly bob hairstyle. Song Hye-kyo successfully transformed her image with a bob haircut in the popular drama “The Glory”. Lastly, Go Joon-hee, who has caused “bob hair fever” among numerous women, also enjoyed her prime after cutting her long hair. Is there a special reason why the bob hairstyle suits them particularly well?

A bob hairstyle is the best for covering long face shapes. For those with a long face vertically and relatively narrow face width, a bang style with hair down on both sides or one side, combined with tucking the side hair behind the ears, can create an effect that makes the narrow face appear slightly wider. If you have a long chin, a bob haircut slightly shorter than the jawline with waves near the ears can both hide flaws and give a much softer impression.

However, while round face shapes generally suit bob hairstyles well, caution is needed as styling the hair ends to stick outwards can make the face appear fuller. For those with angular jaws, it’s best to keep the bob length above the jawline to create a distracting effect. Be careful of lengths longer than the jawline or tucking hair behind the ears, as these can emphasize angular facial contours. For prominent cheekbones, a bob style that wraps inward along the face line can help soften the feature.


While bob hairstyles can potentially limit styling options if not done carefully, when styled to suit the face shape, they can actually highlight one’s best features. In particular, the “curly bob perm” that has been trendy since this summer has gained popularity with many celebrities trying it out. Various styles can be attempted, such as the nerd perm (characterized by thick but natural curls covering the face with long bangs and a round outer line), vintage perm (a perm that creates a 70s-80s mood with overall thick and voluminous curls, evoking a Y2K generation feel), and nerd hippie perm (based on the nerd perm but with stronger waves).
