It's almost impossible to picture Kate Hudson without long, flowing hair. It's just her thing. But let us not forget that the Oscar winner is actually one of the more adventurous actors when it comes to hair experimentation. Remember when she buzzed it all off in 2017? Or when she played with pink strands in 2021? And it seems she must have been itching for a big change once again because she just debuted a still-trending bob on the red carpet.
Hudson attended the Governors Awards—it's an Oscar thing—wearing an incredibly gorgeous silk Valentino gown in the prettiest shade of light green. And while the butterfly-shaped cut-outs on the sleeve are a total scene-stealer, your eyes can't help but travel upward to her new, shorter hair.

While we haven't confirmed yet if Hudson's go-to hairstylist, Marcus Francis, is the one who chopped off several inches of her hair, we do know that he styled it for this event. He gave her a retro look with defined yet soft curls and a side part. One side was pinned behind her ear to reveal a beautiful diamond drop earring with a pink stone that echoed the tone of her glossy lips and glowing cheeks.

Hudson posted several photos of the look on Instagram, and fans definitely took notice of the new shorter style. “Loving the 1920s vibes in that outfit and wow the hair 😍👏👏,” one commenter wrote. “The hair AND the dress ❤️🔥 She's awesome,” another said—both entirely accurate observations.
We can't wait to see how it looks styled in other textures—and how many other people this look inspires to finally get a bob themselves.
