Maya Jama Debuts a Lob Haircut, Bringing Back Her Short Hair
Move over, long locks! Maya Jama just made a major case for the return of her 'lob', and considering the recent bob renaissance, you best believe we're all for it. In a recent Instagram Story that's already setting beauty feeds ablaze, the Love Island presenter and certified glam Queen debuted a sleek, glossy long bob (aka lob), and it's one that's giving serious 90s prep vibes – power suit 'n' all. 'Okay, bobby bitch is ready to host the show. Make sure you tune in, it's at 10pm right after the main show, and I'm a Clueless c*nt today,' Maya says in the IG video, referring to Sunday night's Love Island Aftersun. For those unfamiliar with this hairstyle, a lob is the slightly grown-out cousin of the classic bob, usually landing anywhere from the chin to the shoulders. And Maya's, for reference, hits just past the collarbone, sitting at the longer end of the lob spectrum. As shown above, this version of the cut is textbook perfection: bouncy ends, sharp parting, and a volume that demands attention. The look pairs flawlessly with Maya's tailored lilac-and-navy plaid blazer, cinched with a peplum silhouette to highlight her waist and channelling unmistakable 90s Clueless energy (Cher Horowitz, eat your heart out). Add in the radiant smile and that glowing glam, and you've got a full-on beauty moment. *Chef's kiss* Could this be a new hair era for Maya? Possibly. But before we all book the salon appointment, let's not forget – this might just be a very convincing wig. Still, real or not, it's giving #LobGoals. And we're here for every sharp, swishy second of it.

Maya Jama shares summer style secrets
Maya Jama's summer style is inspired by 1990s supermodels. The 30-year-old TV presenter has revealed she likes to feel comfortable when she's not working so she spends the summer months wearing loose-fitting shirts teamed with shorts or jeans. She told The Sunday Times newspaper: "Oversized shirts with shorts or skinny jeans. My inspiration is 1990s off-duty supermodels - they loved a big white shirt with a big belt, boots or kitten heels." Maya has been seen wearing more glamorous outfits during her stint hosting ITV2 reality show Love Island this summer - and she's revealed her onscreen outfits are also 1990s-inspired. She explained: "It's a sexy show so we've always fed into that, but this year we've delved into some vintage designer archives, in particular preloved looks from the 1990s - a few Chanel pieces, some 1994 Versace - to elevate it a bit but keep it fun. Think bright, colourful minidresses." Maya admitted the costumes she wears on TV can be quite uncomfortable but she's prepared to "suffer" for a few hours of work. She added: "When I started, there were so many rules. For my first job at MTV they wanted me to look like a member of Little Mix, but now I get to wear what I want, really. I sacrifice comfort! "On TV I always think you can suffer for a couple of hours in an outfit, whereas day to day I'm all about comfort. I have learnt that small prints and patterns don't look as good on telly - crisscrosses, stripes, they don't translate as well on camera." Maya previously shared her top beauty tip and revealed it doesn't cost a thing - explaining she likes to dip her face in ice cold water first thing in the morning to reduce puffiness and perk up tired skin - but an ice-roller will also do the job. According to The Sunday Times, she said: "I'm a big believer in dunking your face in ice-cold water every morning - it helps reduce puffiness and tiredness and definitely helps your face feel 'snatched' first thing. "You could also use an ice roller as an alternative, but I think doing it quickly and all at once is easiest." Maya went on to share her other advice which includes taking off make-up before bed and using eye masks regularly. She added: "I always try not to wear make-up to bed, and I'd say I'm 99 per cent good at that. "It's really important to look after your eyes and I love an eye mask. I make sure I always have an MIJ mask in my bag so I can pop it on in a cab or use it on a flight to keep my eyes hydrated and refreshed."
