Kylie Jenner has once again turned heads with a bold new hairstyle, trading in her signature long, dark locks for a striking curly blonde bob. The beauty mogul revealed the dramatic transformation on Instagram earlier this week, drawing clear inspiration from Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe.
The platinum blonde bob, cut to her cheekbones, was styled in soft ringlets to give it a vintage flair. Jenner paired the look with a sharp winged eyeliner and captioned her post, “Did someone say they missed king kylie?”—a nod to her ever-changing style era of the past.
Clara Purvis, founder of Blue Funes Beauty, noted that the retro style works best on chin-length cuts with loose layers. “This vintage-influenced styling can be done on most bobs, but layers help achieve that full, soft shape,” she explained.
Jenner joins a growing list of celebrities embracing Monroe-inspired looks. Her sister Kendall recently sported bleach blonde hair for Halloween, while Gigi Hadid wore similar curls on the Met Gala red carpet.
Known for her constant style reinventions, Jenner’s latest look is a bold return to the playful and daring aesthetic that made her a trendsetter in the first place.
