Here at Who What Wear UK, we are always on the lookout for the latest hair trends. In fact, it's my job to keep an eye out for trending haircuts, hair colours and even hair accessories so that I can fill you in on what looks to go for this season.


I'm sure you're all aware that bob hairstyles are going nowhere this year, but what specific bob hair trends can we expect to see everywhere? I've been writing about popular styles such as the sliced bob and the bouncy bob, but I've spotted another short haircut cropping up this month (pardon the pun), and it is definitely the best one yet. Say hello to the square bob.


What Is the Square Bob?

So, what is the square bob? "The square bob is your classic '60s chic bob," explains Cos Sakkas, global creative director at Toni & Guy. "It has a cool, high-fashion finish and a strong geometric shape."


Although it can work for all hair types, Sakkas says that it's best for people with straight or lightly wavy hair. It will also work really well for thicker hair types thanks to the stronger shape. "Ask [your hairdresser] for a blunt, one-length haircut with clean lines and minimal layering," explains Sakkas. "The ends need to be strong and defined for this hairstyle to work."


Depending on your face shape, Sakkas says you can go for a deep side parting or centre parting for a dynamic finish.
