The INSIDER Summary:
- Blake Lively threw everyone for a loop by debuting a short lob hairstyle at her new film premiere.
- While she looked amazing, some longer strands peeked through, indicating that it may be a faux lob.
- She was spotted the next day at LAX with her long hair still intact.
Blake Lively just gave us a mystery worthy of a "Gossip Girl" episode.
The actress was pictured with a shorter lob cut on Tuesday at a screening of her new film, "All I See is You," leading people to believe that she had cut off her signature long, flowing locks.
While she looks amazing with this chic new 'do — which we first read about on Refinery29— not everyone was convinced that she actually chopped her hair at all.
After careful examination, longer strands of hair are clearly hanging down near Lively's shoulders, indicating that it could be a faux lob. The ends of her hair appear to have been gathered up to create the effect of a shorter style.
Thankfully, the mystery of Lively's lob was quickly solved as she was spotted at LAX the day after the screening, on Wednesday, with her signature long tresses still intact.
It looks like this was a sneaky false alarm that Serena van der Woodsen would be proud of.
While she didn't cut her hair on this occasion, everyone from Selena Gomez to Kate Middleton has been spotted wearing their hair in a lob this year, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Lively join the ever-growing lob club in the future.
