Megan Fox’s Cowgirl Bob Haircut, Explained By Her Stylist

Megan Fox is in her horse-girl era — or at least her hair is. On May 8, the actor’s go-to hairstylist, Dimitris Giannetos, posted a picture of her latest look on Instagram. He captioned the hairstyle the “cowgirl bob,” which is a fresh take on the short hairstyle that has been trending for the past year. Coupled with a new “espresso martini” hair color, Fox’s new brunette hair is a stark departure from the myriad of styles that she’s been wearing in the past.

In case you were wondering, yes, that is her real hair, not a wig. “She loves a change and wanted to own this look,” Giannetos tells PS. As for the inspiration behind the style, the duo loves a good trend as much as the next person. “Coquette beauty is in right now and the cowgirl bob is like you got that perfect, flirty chop, then washed your hair or were sweating, and then let it air dry,” Giannetos says. Those piecey, tousled waves that Fox debuted are the ideal result — think the french bob but elevated.

As with any haircut, it’s recommended that you go to a professional if you want to get this look. One of the best ways to replicate Fox’s version is, of course, to bring a picture of her new style with you to the salon. Still, we all have different face shapes, hair types, and lengths, so it’s important to have a consultation with a stylist who can adjust the cut to complement your specific features.
