The Internet Can’t Make Sense of Kanye West’s Abstract Buzzed Haircut — See Photo

Kanye West‘s new haircut has all of us scratching our heads. The rapper and fashion designer posted a photo to Instagram of the back of his newly buzzed head on Monday, October 18. His fade features several abstract shapes (for lack of a better word) between fully-shaven sections of his head. 

It’s unclear as to why Kanye — sorry, Ye — opted for abstract zig-zag shapes on the back of his head. However, the bigger question is: what inspired him to get this rather unusual cut in the first place? We know that Ye is a man of mystery, so it comes as no surprise that he didn’t explain the new hairstyle in his caption. 

Many of Kanye’s fans came to his comment section to offer their two cents on the new hairstyle. One Instagram user speculates that the cut was the work of the rapper’s four children, while another predicts that others will follow suit and cut their hair just like Ye. Another user writes, “Alright I’m getting you Bosley for men on Christmas Day don’t worry.” Naturally, several people expressed their confusion about the look with a simple, “WTF.” Same.

Say what you want about Ye’s, uh, creative fade, but at least it’s something we’ve never seen before. So, we’re wondering, will he ever show the front? Only time will tell.
