We're on the Cusp of a "Micro Makeover"

www.popsugar.co.uk, February 14, 2023
One of the most recent beauty trends in hair and nails seems to be a theme: they're all getting shorter. Extra-long stuff has ruled the last few years, from long, bouncing blowdrys to nail extensions. However, the tides seem to be shifting this year. We're not going to celebrate Hailey Bieber's hair falling into a bob (but we are also not going to ignore the fact that the Rhode founder had trending). This latest "micro makeover," as Pinterest puts it, has been in the works long before that. According to the website, "micro french nails" are up 235 percent in searches, "chopped bob haircuts" have risen by 550 percent, and "micro bangs" have risen by 110 percent, indicating that people are looking for new ways to play with less time.

Emma Stone Resurrects Her Bob Haircut

www.popsugar.co.uk, February 3, 2023
Emma Stone's bob haircut is back, baby. When sitting courtside with husband Dave McCary at the Lakers vs. Knicks basketball game in New York City on January 31, the "Cruella 2" actor had a very short hairstyle, but this is the first time we've seen a complete look at the new chop, which she ended with just barely turned-under ends. In mid-January, she wore a slicked-back updo for a movie screening, making it difficult to remember the length. This is the shortest we've seen Stone's hair since she had a platinum-blonde bob in 2017. The Oscar winner also experimented with a micro bob that grew her shoulders in 2014 and has dyed her natural blonde hair a variety of shades, including strawberry blonde, copper, chestnut, and, of course, the iconic red hue she first adopted when shooting "Superbad" in 2006. Given that her daughter, Louise, is approaching her second year of age, we can hardly blame Stone for resurrecting the hassle-free bob.
