You see, what we're really saying is, the perfect moment to lop off your locks and go for a jaw-skimming (or shorter) cut is...whenever. To get you inspired to make the chop—and to help you figure out what to do with your hair once you've gone short, we've hand-picked 86 totally gorgeous, varied celebrity looks that will act as your spiritual hair guide.
Keira Knightley
Can we talk about Knightly's next-level texture thanks to this eye-sweeping bang moment? A lewk.
Damaris Goddrie
These defined curls look so gorgeous on Goddrie, and will look so goregous on you. You can always depend on tight ringlets for added dimension.
Karrueche Tran
Add a few soft bends to your lob for elegance, if that's the vibe you're going for. Like Tran, if you have a heart-shaped face, this style will look picture-perfect on you.

Paulson added a playful touch to her choppy ends with texture and volume. Pick a side to sweep most of your hair over to for more structure.
Agyness Deyn
Deyn's windswept texture makes me want to risk it all and dye my hair silver to replicate this exact style. I mean...she looks freaking incredible.
Victoria Beckham
Beckham could write an entire book on "how to be cool." For now, us commoners will take notes on how to nail a tousled lob like her.
