It’s been a minute since Zendaya has changed up her hair, but on Dec. 18, the actor joined the rest of her “Euphoria” castmates in Los Angeles for the FYC event wearing an on-trend chin-length bob. In addition to the shorter length, Zendaya’s bob haircut also featured a deep side part, which is predicted to be one of 2023’s biggest hairstyle trends. (It was also at the center of a Gen Z vs. millennial debate on TikTok not long ago, if you’ll remember.)
The last time the star was seen with a short cut was over the summer when she was spotted on set of her new movie, “Challengers.” Still, Zendaya has never been one to shy away from a hair transformation; she’s tried everything from a red hair color (which some speculated may have been a nod to her role as MJ in “Spiderman: Far From Home”) to her iconic blond pixie cut at the London Fashion Awards.
If Zendaya’s new look has sparked your own interest in a bob haircut, the time is now to jump on the trend. “The people that were rocking the lob last year are now over it, chopping their hair up above the shoulders to have a carefree summer without that shoulder-length flip,” Tauni Dawson, hairstylist at Nine Zero One salon in Los Angeles, previously told POPSUGAR. “Go for more of a blunt look to keep the hair looking full and strong over the summer.”
