22 Latest Two Block Haircut Styles | Inspired by Kpop
Let's make it pop like KPop!
As the name suggests, the two blocks are the divide of one’s top hair and the sides to back. These collectively form “Two Block Haircut”. This hairstyle previously popped in South Korea and then it got picked by some famous icons from the KPop it became an international trend that many people use as a style statement.
The basis of this hairstyle is quite simple, the top is usually longer than the sides and the back. The sides and back can be either faded or tapered but they are always undercut to bring that separation into the light. That being the basic way, many stylists add their own touch to the look with a middle part, dyed top, and sometimes an overgrown hair on the top while the sides are very short. This hairstyle can be very versatile if one wants it to be but at the same time even on its own, it is quite a modern and fashionable look.
Let’s check out some iconic takes on Two Block Haircut and see which one stands out the most!
Platinum Blonde Two Block
Emulating k-pop means one thing alone – you become a showstopper. This does not necessarily mean that you need to take drastic measures to become the center of attention. It can be achieved with a simple change – your hair color. However, it has to be contrasting with what you have naturally. If your hair is in a darker hue, then go platinum blonde.
The key to not going overboard is complimenting the platinum blonde color with a relatively subdued haircut. A simple two-block one with a hard part in the middle (with the hard part continuing with an eyebrow slit) works if it fits your face shape – oblong, oval, heart. Avoid sporting a beard or any other accessories unless necessary, like your eyeglasses (which you can’t see without) and you are good to go.
Mark’s Messy Two Block Cut With A Twirl
Oh, just look at that twirl! If you think you can’t get that beautiful hair twist at home – you’re wrong! All you need is a beautifully done two-block haircut and a little bit of gel to curl the front part of your bangs with just one hand movement.
Two-Block Faux Hawk
In the loosest sense, a two-block haircut can include a faux hawk. It’s edgy, it’s different, and it’s definitely an eye-catcher. What do you need to achieve this look? First, you need to grow your hair long enough for the back part – it could be at the level of your chin. The sides, as with any two-block haircut, will be skin-tight. The faux hawk involves a v-shaped fringe in the front and a tiny bit of volume on top.
Do you think you got what it takes to sport this look? The last thing to tick off the list is a round face shape. A short goatee and some ear piercings with glasses are optional but good accompaniments to this haircut.

How to get Two Block Haircut?
Usually, hairdressers will start from the sides where they use clippers to balance the hair length while also bringing down the volume. Next, some might fade the lower ends of the sides and back to make it even sleeker and sharp.
After the sides and the back have been taken care of, it is time to work on the top. The length of hair strands won’t be clipped by a lot, but a slight touch to make it uniform is necessary. Depending mainly on what style one is going for, the hairdresser might part in between for a middle part or push it towards the foreheads for the strands to hang freely Like a French Crop.
