If you've ever wondered if a single haircut can change the way you experience your image – the answer is yes. And no, we're not talking about a radical head shave in a moment of life crisis (although... everyone has their own way). We're talking about a sleek, sophisticated, yet incredibly refreshing take on the bob that's playful enough not to seem stiff, yet sophisticated enough to wear to dinner with the bank manager. A layered lob with soft waves and a side parting – this is the hairstyle that stylists and mature fashion icons are loving this fall. And no one has showcased it more spectacularly than – surprise – Kris Jenner.
Known for her almost uniformed edgy pixie haircut, Kris isn't exactly synonymous with hairstyling escapades. Her look has been so meticulously sculpted over the past twenty years that you'd think she was coordinated by Google Calendar. But this year, she's turned things on its head—literally. The new hairstyle, which reaches just below the chin, is light, wavy, with an elegant side part that gently falls over the forehead and softens the features of her face. And the result? Kris looks younger, fresher, and almost… relaxed. Which, let's be honest, is almost a bigger turnaround for her than that famous reality TV "to be continued."

A hairstyle that doesn't scream, "Look at me!", but whispers, "Have you noticed?"
If we step away from the famous names for a moment and look at the experts: the hairstyle that Kris Jenner is currently wearing is long layered bob with wavy styling or in international jargon: textured long layered lob with side part. It's more than just a "new haircut." It's a style that cleverly combines the geometry of a bob with the soft dynamics of waves. The result? A lift without the surgical knife.

It's a hairstyle that adds volume to the face where we've lost it over the years - around the cheekbones and above the jaw. The waves and layering create movement and freshness that look incredibly youthful. The side parting breaks up the strict symmetry and adds a touch of spontaneity - that French "je ne sais quoi" that we all secretly love.
But this hairstyle is not just an aesthetic trick. It is also an expression of inner confidence: Women today are not looking for change because they "have to" look younger - but because they "want" to look more alive...and that's a big difference.

How to get it – without a team meeting with the Kardashian stylists
If you go to the salon:
Ask for long bob (lob), reaching the collarbone, with gentle layered haircut for added volume and movement. The key is that the tips are not sharp or stiff, but soft and textured. Request side parting, which gently crosses the facial line, and loose waves, which don't look too "hairdressing" - straight from the bed, not from hairdressing competition.
If you are doing it at home:
-
- Start with heat protection (because we don't want to go back to the 80s where hair was frizzy).
- Use a blow dryer and a round brush to create volume at the roots.
- Curl the strands with a larger curling iron (2.5 cm) – it is important to curl the curls away from the face.
- Use hairspray, then use your fingers to lightly loosen the curls for a natural look.
- And if you have the time and inclination: a few self-adhesive curlers at the crown create a subtle "lift" without additional chemicals.
Why now, why this hairstyle?
Summer was a time of relaxation, sea salt, and messy figs. Autumn calls for a light structure – but still with soul. Layered lob with waves and parting It looks professional without being austere. You can wear it with a leather jacket or a cashmere coat, with loafers or heels. And, perhaps most importantly – it works whether you are 30 or 60.
