Hailey Bieber’s Off-Duty Lob Is the Coolest New Year Haircut

The off-duty lob was already expected to be a major hair trend for 2026, but Bieber’s Midas touch on beauty trends is sure to inspire even more. “This style is a long bob that hits around the collarbone, but instead of sharp, blunt ends, the edges are slightly softened and curved,” Sean Michael, owner of Salon Beau, previously told Glamour. “It keeps some structure so it doesn’t look messy, but the ends have a bit more movement so the hair naturally falls into place. The overall look is smooth and clean, just not overly precise.”

This isn’t Bieber’s first rodeo with shorter hair: She chopped a chin-length bob, courtesy of stylist Irinel de León, back in 2023. While she’s been playing with more length and updos recently, her newest cut makes a case for the face-framing power of the lob. Paired with her trendy Bambi brunette color, everything about this look screams warm and cozy for winter.

If you’re considering a winter chop of your own, the soft-structured lob strikes the perfect balance between edgy and easy. It’s long enough to throw into a ponytail, unstructured enough that you can lean into natural texture, and versatile enough to wear in countless trendy short-hair styles. This length looks great blown out with a hit of dry texture spray, to get the Hailey Bieber look, but it works just as well when it’s worn sleek or curly. Just make sure to keep a good hair oil handy—the magic is in those fresh, healthy looking ends.
