All about BOB...

The ten most iconic celebrity bobs have been named in a huge internet poll this week by The Hairdressers Journal International… The bob haircut has been around for decades and it has to be the most iconic, classic hairstyle to have stood the test of time…

Brought to the forefront by the late Vidal Sassoon, it has been copied and admired over the world by every female on the planet and after this weeks poll Victoria Beckham came out as queen of the bobs… Victorias ‘Pob’ (posh bob.. the name it was dubbed after her posh spice days fused with a killer bob) has taken the top spot and whilst she was known for her short, sleek style throughout her girl group days, it wasn’t until hairdresser Ben Cooke gave her an asymmetric short bob that the world sat up and took notice. Since then it’s been the one of the most memorable celebrity haircuts of all time, and one most copied and requested in every salon…

Following Victoria were two other fashion icons famed for their bob, 60’s designer Mary Quant and American Vogue editor Anna Wintour. Mary was one of the first to rock the Sassoon bob cut in the swinging sixties and she became the face of the Sassoon brand and her bob set the scene for the fashion forward way of thinking of that time and Anna Wintour is renowned for her fierce forward way of fashion thinking but her bob has always remained elegant and immaculate…

So here are the top 10 bobs of all times listed below:
1. Victoria Beckham

3. Anna Wintour
4. Alexa Chung
5. Jennifer Aniston
6. Beyoncè
7. Rihanna
