While Brad Paisley and other country crooners performed at the White House last night, the First Lady made a grand entrance of her own. She showed off a sleek new bob that rivals the trend-setting cuts sported by Victoria Beckham and Katie Holmes (pictured left) of years past. Short and sweet!

Is it just me not being in the know or is the bob the Beltway haircut to get when you are a powerful female in the U.S. government -especially in recent memory? Beauty Girl, can you help me figure this out? Thanks!
I heard that Michelle didn’t actually cut her hair – it was just styled with the longer layers tucked under into a hidden pony. Does anyone know if this is true?
Sil, you are correct. Michelle pulled a fake out. “No, I didn’t cut her hair,” says her hairstylist Johnny Wright on UrbanBeautyCollective.com. “There are two things I do. The UP-TUCK, like you are tucking something in. Then I do a TUCK-UP. The UP-TUCK is when I position a small ponytail somewhere on the head, and then I tuck the rest of the hair up under that ponytail. Then a TUCK-UP is when I take the hair and gather it all in the back and I twist it and I pull up and tuck. And that is what she got last night! A TUCK UP! Not a cut.” P.S. If you’re thinking about going for a chop but not totally committed just yet, try these techniques and go for a test drive.
