It seems like every star is rocking a shorter 'do to beat the heat. Aside from its practicality, cropped tresses are the It look right now with its modern, elevated and edgy vibe. And although summer cuts are a thing, the style is quite season-less as it'll transition well into fall. From bobs to lobs, see the of-the-moment haircut A-listers are loving, including Kim Kardashian West, Katie Holmes and Jessica Chastain, to inspire your next trip to the salon.
Kim Kardashian West
The latest celeb to do the chop, the social media sensation cut off her long mermaid tresses into a sleek mid-neck blunt bob with ends that slightly curl in for a hint of retro vibes.
Khloe Kardashian
The new mom is another Kardashian to debut a shorter 'do. The Good American founder opted for a lob that hangs right above the collar bone -- a fantastic choice for those who don't want to commit to a full bob.
Katie Holmes
For those with a square-shape face like Holmes, a chin-length bob with small piecey layers parted to the side softens the jawline.
Rihanna
The Fenty Beauty founder showed off her new abbreviated locks in a selfie on her Instagram story. An effortless, beachy 'do that hits right above the bottom of the neck is ideal for warm days.
Lucy Hale
The former Pretty Little Liars star has been rocking a cropped style for a while now, but she trimmed it even shorter recently for a chin-length cut that's subtly longer at the front.
Hailey Baldwin
The future Mrs. Bieber's bob has grown out into a shoulder-reaching lob, which would be a great option for you if you're hesitant to go above.
Gabrielle Union
Go big or go home, right? For a dramatic change, copy the Being Mary Jane leading lady's edgy asymmetric cut that grazes near the upper jaw.
Jessica Chastain
The Oscar-nominated actress stunned in a layered summer cut in June, styled in tousled waves for the ultimate romantic effect.
Margot Robbie
Similar to Hailey Baldwin, the Aussie beauty has been growing out her chopped tresses since awards season. With little layers and shoulder-grazing length, her lob is easy to maintain.
Vanessa Hudgens
The singer and actress combines bangs, curls and bob for a cool, boho result. Hudgens has a diamond-shaped mug with her envious high cheekbones and angular chin. The cut hits near the lower jawline above the chin, which flatteringly frames her face's silhouette.
Emma Roberts
The blonde actress' adorable chin-length cut looks amazing parted deeply to the side and tucked behind the ears.
Jenna Dewan
The World of Dance host has rocked a textured bob for a while, but she recently changed it up with a sleeker, shinier style thanks to celeb hairstylist Cash Lawless who gave her a strong, straight blunt bob using longer hair pieces to achieve the perfect cut that sits below her chin. See the process here.
Bella Hadid
The supermodel's blunt bob is a fierce one. The no-B.S. straight cut 'do is utterly fashion-forward with its slight slanted line towards the back.
