No more dilemma between long and short hair, this new haircut from South Korea is the solution you expected.
Each year, the dilemma returns. On the one hand, the desire for a cleared neck and a net square, as we see scrolling through red carpets. On the other, the attachment to long hair which allows all the fantasies. Between the two, a well -known frustration: wanting the two without ever succeeding in deciding. A trend from South Korea promises to end the dilemma.
If the bob has imposed itself for years as one of the most influential cuts, it has always had a price: cut without return. Its popularity is not denied, whether it is straight, tapered or accompanied by fringes. But to adopt it, you have to accept to drop its lengths, sometimes patiently maintained for years. Until now, there was no credible alternative: the square required a clear cut, long hair remained long hair. This lock jumped to Seoul, where a living room imagined a compromise which, on social networks, appears as the ideal response to an old puzzle.
The method is based on a double construction. At first, the nape hair is shortened over the length of a classic bob. The top of the hair is preserved, then worked as a gradient to keep the long and airy effect. Result: Once the hair is released, the cut takes the look of a simple fluid gradient, impossible to distinguish from a classic look on long hair. But it is enough to partially raise the hair, in half tail, in high bun or even retained by a pliers, so that a perfectly drawn square appears. His name? The Two Block haircut.
However, this new look is not for everyone. The contentor of content 18Hens warns in one of her videos : “Be careful, this cut works mainly with long and thick hair. Make an appointment for a consultation before you start.” In other words, without sufficient density, the illusion does not hold. Short wicks can show under the lengths and break the desired effect.
Another sensitive point: styling. The user hellojanel noted it at her expense: “When I washed it the next day, I realized how difficult it was to style it. I finally decided to cut everything and adopt a bob.” The cut therefore requires a certain commitment, as well as a good dose of hair to play in two registers. But for those who have hesitated for too long between length and square, the bet is worth it.
