Am I just not seeing this right or is anyone noticing after about a year of everyone from celebs to soccer moms letting the bob grow.

They seem to be making a strong comeback (where I live anyway)
I am noticing a ton of bobs again all over (malls, work, schools etc.)
From kids to teens, moms and celebs  am I right?
Not so much just the POB either but just all sorts of bobs chin length and banged, angled and even short nape bobs.
I thought the trend was dead but after seeing what seems to me like a lot over the past month maybe not.
most of them look freshly cut too.
agree or disagree?
Long with BLUNT bangs or ALL cut to lip length, I cant decide my favorite!

I never seen a trend away from them, Some have opted to grow out the A-Line cut for the winter season, but will have it done again when the weather changes. Remember this is a cut that can have so many variations and still the cut is called a BOB. The other cut that is making a come back is a shag.
Hang on here we go again

I've had a bob for about 20 years in varying shapes and forms.  I had an a-line with it quite high in the back for several years and have just changed to an ear length bob with it still a bit higher in the back.  The nape is shaved and has been since I had the a-linie.  In fact my daughter has a very short mid ear bob with the nape shaved also, which was cut much shorter than I anticipated but even she likes it.  I was mortified when the hairdresser cut it this short but other people have commented that it really suits her and looks cute.

I hope it stays in fashion for years to come as it really is the best style for me.  Certainly celebs currently find it fashionable.

I think the bob is here to stay forever, it was in huge style in the 70's and has never really left us, lol.
 
I do at least 4 to 5 bob cuts a week in our salon, all varied;)

Where did the A-line/inverted bob come from?  Here's an explanation:
