Two block haircut
A cut from Korea built from two blocks: a long, soft, layered top over short sides and back. The top drops toward the brows and hides the short section.

What to tell your stylist
“I’d like a two block: sides and back clipped to a #2 or #3, with no blending. Leave at least 4 inches on top so it falls onto my forehead, and keep the fringe thin, just above my brows.”
Tip: show the result you made in Mane too. A description plus a picture is the clearest brief.
Why choose it
- Takes bulk out of thick hair
- Slims a round face
- The top can be styled forward or back
Keep in mind
- The short sides need a tidy-up every 3–4 weeks
- Very curly tops puff up instead of falling forward

About Two Block
The name comes from those two lengths. The sides and back are clipped to a #2 or #3 and never blended into the top, which is left long enough to cover the line between them. The ends that fall onto the forehead are cut thin, so the fringe doesn’t sit like a heavy lid.
On a round face, the short sides take away width, while a fringe swept slightly to one side with some lift on top makes the face look longer. The fringe also balances a wide forehead on a heart-shaped face and makes a long face look shorter. Style it with a blow-dryer and a little matte wax.
What’s the difference between a two block and an undercut?
Both have short sides and a long top with no blend. An undercut usually has the top brushed back or to the side, while a two block lets the longer, softer top fall forward over the short section. Try both on the same photo to compare.
How long does my hair need to be for a two block?
The top needs at least 4 inches so the fringe reaches your brows. When you try it in Mane, the AI can fill in the length, but factor in the growing time.
