jennifer garner smiling with a lightly textured bob

Bobs are a classic cut that will truly never go out of style. With that said, we’ve been noticing a new crop of celebrities embracing the short style, so we’re declaring 2023 the year of the bob. Jennifer Garner first went short in November 2022 with a bob just past her shoulders, but then it looked as if she was growing it out at the beginning of 2023. However, based on recent photos, it’s clear that Garner has committed to her bob era with a fresh cut and highlights—providing some new inspiration for short haircuts

The 13 Going on 30 actor was spotted on the streets of New York City with her lightly textured bob on April 11. Her hair was styled with loose waves and flipped ends that gave it body and volume. She was on Team Side Part with curled bangs that draped one side of her forehead. Garner’s brunette hair was full of lighter caramel and honey-blonde highlights that added dimension and depth.

Bob haircuts are just it. There’s a reason the short haircut has been loved by many and is a popular go-to when folks want a completely new look. We love that Garner’s committed to the shorter style because we were so used to seeing her with long hair. This shoulder-grazing, highlighted bob frames her face beautifully, so we are definitely bookmarking this lightly tousled style with flipped ends for some future inspiration.
