24 Iconic ’90s Bobs That Never Went Out Of Style

Few eras maintain the same grip on our imagination as the ’90s. A last gasp before the rise of social media, looking back from 2026, the decade appears even more fun and raucous and carefree. Just look at the beauty trends – eyebrows tweezed to within an inch of their lives. Thick lashings of black eyeliner and cheeks devoid of blusher. The ubiquity of brown lip liner and frosted pastel eyeshadow. Plus, a hair look that feels current now (and never truly went away in the interim): the bob.
Plenty of famous faces made the bob their signature style in the ’90s, from Cameron Diaz to Halle Berry, Victoria Beckham to Linda Evangelista and Nia Long. The beauty of the ’90s bob specifically is that it tended to mean something slightly different depending on the wearer. Naomi Campbell embraced the boy bob – a super short, symmetrical cut that fell either side of her face, with bumped-under ends. The then Posh Spice made the longer bob (Pob) her calling card, and Christy Turlington cemented the blown-out glamour of the supermodel bob.
Below, 24 of our favourite bobs from the decade we never tire of looking back on.
