Nathan Yazbek Talks Margot Robbie’s Bold New Look
Celebrity Hair Trends & Expert Insights: Nathan Yazbek Talks Margot Robbie’s Bold New Look
When Margot Robbie appeared front row at the Chanel autumn/winter 2026 show during Paris Fashion Week, all eyes were on her bold new hairstyle: a dramatic long bob with a wispy fringe. While her sheer Chanel ensemble caught attention, it was her hair that got the hairdressers talking, including our very own Sydney’s leading expert hairdresser, Nathan Yazbek.
Nathan was recently interviewed by Damien Woolnough for the Sydney Morning Herald, sharing his professional insight into why Robbie’s haircut is more than just a celebrity style moment. As a Goldwell Ambassador and award-winning stylist at Salon Yazbek, Nathan explained why this bob and fringe trend is resonating with clients worldwide:
“It’s a style that people request when they’re going through life changes,” Nathan told the SMH. “Hair is an extension of how people feel on the inside, and a dramatic haircut shows you want to be seen differently.”
Why the Fringe Is a Statement
Margot Robbie’s “scrappy eyebrow-sweeping bang” perfectly captures the messy, nineties-inspired look that’s trending now. Nathan shared that while it looks effortlessly chic, bangs require careful maintenance:
Regular trims every 2–3 weeks to keep the shape fresh
Proper blow-drying, ideally before the rest of the hair, to avoid flattening
A touch of styling products like hairspray or oil for that polished “rock star” finish
As Nathan highlighted to Damien Woolnough, “For a fringe to look on-point, effort behind the scenes is essential, which is why professional guidance makes all the difference.”
