Kpop Hairstyles Male 2018


Kpop Hairstyles Male 2018

Let's talk about 2018. Specifically, Kpop male hairstyles of 2018. Buckle up, because some of these are…interesting.

The Era of the Bowl Cut (Kind Of)

Remember when everyone was rocking a variation of the bowl cut? Not a literal bowl cut, thankfully. But that slightly rounded, forehead-grazing fringe? Yeah, that.

Taemin, I'm looking at you, buddy. He managed to make it look good, though. He always does.

And Baekhyun, of course, experimented with the textured version. Adding a little chaos and personality.

My Unpopular Opinion

Okay, here it is: Some idols pulled it off. Others? Not so much. Don't @ me!

It’s a risky style. It requires a certain face shape. And a whole lot of confidence, clearly.

Maybe I'm just jealous I can't pull it off. Let's be real.

The Perm Phenomenon

Oh, the perms! 2018 was the year everyone decided to embrace their inner poodle. From soft waves to tight curls, it was a perm party.

Jimin went for a softer, more romantic vibe. Very dreamy.

And G-Dragon, as always, pushed the boundaries. Experimenting with textures and colors.

G-Dragon could probably pull off a trash bag as a hat and still look cool. It's a gift.

My Unpopular Opinion

Perms can be AMAZING. But over-permed, fried hair? Not so much. Hydration is key, people!

I cringed seeing some of those dry ends. A little leave-in conditioner goes a long way, trust me.

Hydration is essential for healthy-looking curls. Or any hair, really. Learn from my mistakes!

The Colorful Crew

Let’s not forget the vibrant hues! 2018 was a rainbow explosion. From pastel pinks to electric blues, nothing was off-limits.

BTS paved the way with these bold colors. I mean, let's be honest, when do they not?

And NCT also slayed the colorful hair game. They were total trendsetters.

My Unpopular Opinion

Okay, I’ll admit it. I secretly loved the bright hair. But the upkeep? Yikes.

Imagine the bleach! And the constant touch-ups! My scalp is itching just thinking about it.

I commend their dedication, truly. But I’ll stick with my natural (and much easier) color, thanks.

The Undercut Advantage

The undercut continued its reign. Short on the sides, longer on top. A classic for a reason.

So versatile. You could style it a million different ways.

Slicked back, textured, messy…the possibilities were endless.

My Unpopular Opinion

Underneath all the hype, I think that undercut are kinda boring.

It was everywhere. So ubiquitous it kind of lost its edge.

But hey, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it, right? It's still a solid choice!

The Mullet Moment (Almost)

Okay, hear me out. The mullet was almost a thing. A few brave souls dared to dabble.

Not a full-blown 80s mullet, mind you. More of a…soft, modern mullet.

Still, it was a bold move.

My Unpopular Opinion

I’m glad the mullet didn’t fully take off. Some trends are better left in the past.

Sorry, mullet fans. But it’s just not my cup of tea.

Perhaps I just don't understand high fashion. Maybe it's a sophisticated look for sophisticated people. Not me, though.

So, there you have it. A whirlwind tour of Kpop male hairstyles of 2018. Agree? Disagree? Let the debates begin!
