Lauren Conrad Chopped Her Hair

Lauren Conrad's legacy knows no bounds: Laguna Beach, The Hills, winged eyeliner, sock buns, A-line dresses, and even books. Her style — a very identifiable, highly relatable penchant for all things feminine — is a constant in her fascinating career trajectory from reality star to businesswoman. And, all of it is topped off by that long, shiny, wavy, California-blonde hair.

That's why there was what could only be described as a seismic shift in the beauty universe when our beloved LC stepped out into the world with a noticeably shorter 'do. "Got my first haircut in years," she captioned the selfie she posted last night, which has about 192,000 likes and counting. This has, undoubtedly, already caused a series of salon-appointment bookings — and a complete overhaul of many a "Hair Inspiration" Pinterest board.

Conrad is the latest star to join the long bob craze, and we have to say, it's a good look for her. Although, we fully acknowledge that this was probably a difficult decision.

We'll wait with bated breath to see LC's various takes on braids and updos for girls in the bob club. In the meantime, may we politely suggest these genius short-hair DIYs for inspiration?
