To state the obvious, the look is slick as hell. “Blunt” refers to your hair being cut the same length all around, which makes sense when you think about it—as opposed to careful, nuanced layers that fall just so, it gets straight to a single point (much like your bluntest friend). That kind of nonchalance makes for a style that reads clean, fresh, and healthy-looking, Marjan says. It’s Glossier for hair.

If you’ve dabbled in layers and ombré, like Jenna Dewan Tatum this summer, Marjan also says the cut is so popular because it works with what you’ve got. Think of it like a palette cleanser, she says, and an especially “great refresher for your hair if the ends have been overly layered or cut into.”

The blunt ends give your hair a fresh starting point to grow back from, righting the wrongs any stylist has inflicted with drastic layers you didn’t see until it was too late. We’ve all been there.

And there’s a reason it’s mostly showing up on celebrities with fine, slightly wavy hair, Marjan says. The blunt ends bring some heft to fine hair, or at least the illusion of it, thanks to the balanced, blocky ends. Just like that, you have hair that looks luscious and healthy, zero styling required (again: if you’re starting with straight or slightly textured hair).

If you’ve got more curl, Marjan says that the cut still works, but it’ll come down to personal preference. Layers are usually preferred with curly haircuts because with curls’ bulk, layers help everything fall in an interlocking way. Otherwise, expect more of a triangular shape.

But as we all know, rules were made to be broken. “If you want more of a statement look, the expanded shape can look stunning,” Marjan says. Especially if you give curls ample hydration; Marjan, a Tresemmé Global Stylist, recommends the brand’s Botanique Curl Hydration Collection.

Another reason why blunt cuts are everywhere? After so many ultra-layered, shag-inspired cuts last year, Marjan says we’ve gone in an equal and opposite direction (and no one turns down the shine that clean, sharp ends add). “We’re also seeing a lot of ’70’s inspiration in fashion right now, including clean cuts and natural textures that this works great on,” Marjan says.

And if you’re shedding like crazy from the season change (it’s a thing), the blunt look is ideal. “For women with finer hair types, this cut is especially refreshing as you don’t have to worry about thinning it out with layers,” Marjan says.

If your hair is naturally thick, Marjan says that your stylist can cut layers internally, so the top layer still looks long and blunt on top—that removes bulk, without losing the effect.

Yet another reason they’re showing up everywhere? The cut emphasizes taking up space, like confidence incarnate. “Probably following in the ’70’s fashion footsteps, the shapes are more expanded, which leaves your hair looking thicker and fuller,” Marjan says. In conclusion, be expecting to see lots more of this look this fall.
