If there were ever any doubt if if bobs were still on trend, celebrities on the red carpets this awards season are confirming that they very much are.
From Ayo Edibiri at the Emmys to Jennifer Aniston at the Golden Globes, it seems like everyone is reaching for the scissors at the moment, and the latest celebrity to join the trend is Penélope Cruz.
Penélope Cruz's new bob hairstyle is a classic look, though different to her usual longer and wavy curled styles. However, at the recent Academy Of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences' 14th Annual Governors Awards in Hollywood, the actor debuted her new glass bob, as styled by Pablo Iglesias.
Somewhere between a bob and long bob, the look is particularly smooth, ultra-shiny and effortlessly on trend, with other celebrities such as the Princess of Wales having favoured similar styles. Cruz's look is elevated with reddish-blonde highlights in her dark hair.

How to recreate the glass bob

The glass bob is characterised by its smoothness and shine as well as its shorter length. To to achieve a similar look first blow-dry the hair straight using a round brush and touch up as needed with a straightener. In this particular look, strands either side of Penélope Cruz's face frame her beautifully, with the middle parting adding a timeless, classic final result.
How Penélope Cruz styled her glass bob
At first glance, Penélope Cruz could also pass for a bride in her white, ruffled dress by Chanel, which she wears with a pouch bag and elegant pumps.
Her makeup, on the other hand, is rather subtle and understated, with delicate nude and brown tones on the lips. As a splash of colour, Penélope Cruz wears bright red nails with the white dress and keeps her jewellery discreet.
