Move over, long locks! Maya Jama just made a major case for the return of her ‘lob’, and considering the recent bob renaissance, you best believe we’re all for it.
In a recent Instagram Story that’s already setting beauty feeds ablaze, the Love Island presenter and certified glam Queen debuted a sleek, glossy long bob (aka lob), and it’s one that’s giving serious 90s prep vibes – power suit ‘n’ all.
“Okay, bobby bitch is ready to host the show. Make sure you tune in, it’s at 10pm right after the main show, and I’m a Clueless c*nt today,” Maya says in the IG video, referring to Sunday night’s Love Island Aftersun.
For those unfamiliar with this hairstyle, a lob is the slightly grown-out cousin of the classic bob, usually landing anywhere from the chin to the shoulders. And Maya’s, for reference, hits just past the collarbone, sitting at the longer end of the lob spectrum.
As shown above, this version of the cut is textbook perfection: bouncy ends, sharp parting, and a volume that demands attention.
The look pairs flawlessly with Maya’s tailored lilac-and-navy plaid blazer, cinched with a peplum silhouette to highlight her waist and channelling unmistakable 90s Clueless energy (Cher Horowitz, eat your heart out). Add in the radiant smile and that glowing glam, and you’ve got a full-on beauty moment. *Chef’s kiss*
Could this be a new hair era for Maya? Possibly. But before we all book the salon appointment, let’s not forget – this might just be a very convincing wig. Still, real or not, it’s giving #LobGoals. And we’re here for every sharp, swishy second of it.
