Blunt Haircut: All the Information You Need

Most likely, you've been considering several haircuts and deciding which one to go with for the upcoming year.  A hint, though: harsh haircuts.

 Among French ladies, blunt haircuts have been popular and in style.  They might be the style for you in 2025.  They are quite stylish, classic, and unflappable when it comes to some of the most classic styles.

 We understand that getting a haircut may seem intimidating, particularly if you have long hair.  The blunt cut is one haircut that won't let you down, though, if you've already decided on a look.  It should come as no surprise that there are several ways to wear a blunt cut, so sometimes a large chop isn't required.

Not to leave you lost on where to start, we’ve got something here for you. Check out this haircut that ticks all the boxes.

What is a Blunt Haircut?

A blunt haircut is a style that has no layers. It’s straight, clean, and cut to the same length all around. In other words, the ends are blunt, leaving you with a smooth, even finish—nothing pointy.

When your stylist gives you this cut, you’ll notice it keeps your hair looking thick and full.

Who Looks Good in a Blunt Haircut?

Some would say those with oval-shaped faces. However, regardless of your face shape, a blunt haircut can compliment you. Just go for a length that works with your style and features, and you will be all set.

A short-length blunt cut is perfect for women with square-shaped and heart faces. Those with oval faces can go for longer lengths if they want to.

In terms of hair texture, women with straight hair will love how sleek this cut keeps their strands. For those with fine hair, the blunt cut creates the illusion of thicker locks, making it a good option too. It’s also a great choice for women with thick, curly, or wavy hair since it's versatile and can suit anyone.

How Can I Maintain a Blunt Haircut?

We know you’ve decided on it, but before you head to the salon, keep in mind that this style requires a bit more maintenance than a regular layered cut.

First, you need to stick to your usual hair care routine to prevent split ends. Then, visit the salon every four to six weeks for a trim to keep it looking blunt and clean.

If you can do it all, then maintaining your haircut should not be a problem.

16 Blunt Haircut for Any Hair Texture and Face Shape

1. Shoulder-Length With Full Fringe

We're in love with this look and you've likely been able to tell why. From the fringe to the color and length, this is just perfection.

Recreate this by going for a shoulder-length cut, then give the bangs a curve so it grazes your eyes a little. If you don't have a short hair length, hope is not lost—customize a wig to achieve this style.

2. Wavy Bob With Bangs

We're thankful to Zazie Beetz for proving blunt cuts are achievable with wavy hair, as we've said. And just as we thought, it looks phenomenal.

3. Chin-Length

This can cut like a knife! And there's nothing more we want than that. It's fierce yet classy and elegant all at once.

To style this, keep your hair blunt and on your chin, then go for a light color to add shine to your look. But if you want to keep your hair untouched, styling a wig is another option.

4. Textured Lob

Are we obsessed? Of course, we are. Although you might think there's nothing to see here, there is a lot. The length and texture alone have us floored—with the texture giving the illusion of voluminous, thick hair and length being perfect for those who want a short hairstyle but one that’s longer than a bob.

5. Sleek Middle Part

After styling this, you'll be unstoppable. So, get your products, wash, dry, and moisturize to keep your hair looking good. By following through with the steps, you'll be taming frizz, and keeping your hair smooth and shiny.

Note: Those who wear wigs do not have to wash regularly.

6. Long With Loose Waves

Emma Stone doesn't disappoint with her looks. You can count on her for some juicy hairstyles and the long, loose waves blunt haircut proves that.

It's so perfect yet easy to style. But before you recreate this, make sure to wash your hair first. It will help keep your hair fresh and gorgeous. And the result will be a fascinating wavy blunt style you can't get tired of.

14. Asymmetrical Blunt Bob

This asymmetrical bob is made more chic with its blunt ends. If you want something new and different from short-length blunt hair, you can choose this asymmetrical style.

Tell your hairstylist to make the front longer than the back. And that's it!  It's that easy but the style will frame your face and make you look more fancy.

15. High Ponytail

This look is subtle, yet it makes a loud statement. It’s classy, simple, and has the power to change the whole look.

To achieve this, put your hair into a ponytail. Make sure the ponytail sits around the crown of your head. Then, attach the hair extensions and sleek your hair in the final step. There you go—it shouldn't be difficult at all.
