Eva Longoria has done it again! Just weeks after debuting a sleek, collarbone-grazing lob at the Academy Museum Gala on October 18, the 'Desperate Housewives' alum took her hair even shorter, unveiling her shortest cut in nearly two years.
Fans got a behind-the-scenes look at the transformation when Longoria shared an Instagram reel capturing the moment she sat in the chair of celebrity stylist Ken Paves, the man behind some of the most coveted bobs in Hollywood.

At the time, she paired the cut with a black-and-white checkered Chanel jacket, sequined top, high-waisted navy slacks, and her signature red lipstick.

Famous for crafting Victoria Beckham’s signature bobs, he is often spotted alongside Posh Spice at family celebrations and events, most recently at Sir David Beckham’s knighthood dinner at Restaurant Gordon Ramsay.
Longoria’s bob is very much in step with current celebrity hair trends. Over the past few months, stars from Sydney Sweeney to Kendall Jenner have debuted everything from bright blonde bobs to voluminous curls, making this season the perfect moment for the chic hairstyle.

“I love it! You are encouraging me to cut my hair,” one person wrote under her post, while someone else commented, “Yaaas! A bob looks nice on you. I loved when you did the bob on Desperate Housewives as well.”
