Actress Leslie Bibb is the picture of summer style, especially with her role as Kate Bohr in The White Lotus. Playing a wealthy woman relaxing at a Thai resort, Bibb’s sharp, chin-length bob became as talked-about as the show’s dramatic finale.
Bibb affectionately calls her hairstyle the “c**** little bob,” a name she shared with stylist Chris McMillan on Instagram. McMillan, known for creating Jennifer Aniston’s iconic “Rachel” cut, told Elle that Bibb’s bob was inspired by Patricia Arquette’s look in True Romance.
Hairstylist Jennifer Korab from New Jersey says this bob is perfect for summer. She explains, “It’s light, easy to style, and has an effortless, sun-kissed vibe that works well in warm weather.” The cut suits almost all hair types because of its soft layers, which add volume and shape without heavy styling.
For anyone wanting to copy Bibb’s look, Korab advises asking for a chin-length bob with textured, soft ends. She stresses the importance of keeping the cut light and airy rather than blunt. Internal layers create natural movement, making the style look casually perfect.
Styling is simple: air-dry if possible, or use a diffuser with a light mousse or sea salt spray. For straight hair, Korab suggests adding a gentle bend with a flat iron or curling wand—no heavy waves needed.
Regular trims every six to eight weeks are key to maintaining the bob’s clean shape. Korab also emphasizes the need for healthy hair. Since the cut is simple, shiny hair really stands out. She recommends heat protection and finishing with a light oil or gloss spray to keep the hair looking fresh and sun-kissed.Bibb’s sleek bob from The White Lotus offers an easy, stylish look that feels perfect for summer—no travel required.
