A bob is the perfect short hairstyle you can try when attempting something new. You can go a little longer so you have hair to play with, but you can also be a little risky and go with a cropped bob for a more unique and edgy look.

With these styles you can easily have ready-to-go hair in minutes that loo stylish but doesn’t take a ton of time to do.
