‘Ibiza Bob’ icon Jack Kay is lapping up his new-found fame after his Lego-style haircut went viral, but it’s not all been smooth sailing as he’s reportedly fighting to save his relationship
Ibiza Final Boss Jack Kay may be lapping up his new-found fame on private jets with his pals, but there’s apparently trouble in paradise for the viral raver and his glamorous girlfriend.
When the 26-year-old first touched down on the White Isle last week, he was just another British lad in a black vest and gold chain, throwing shapes and looking for a fun time. But his world changed overnight when he became a huge internet sensation, with memes of his impressive haircut flooding social media.
Now he’s ditched EasyJet for a private plane back to the party island with his mates after a fresh trim and announcing his own tour, but it’s not all been plain sailing. It comes after ‘Ibiza Bob’ reunited with his barber after his iconic bowl cut went viral.

It’s now been revealed that the lad who reached viral heights thanks to his Lego-style haircut is battling to save his relationship with his model lover, after she reportedly dumped him as he raved the night away in Ibiza.
The blow to his relationship reportedly came just days into his trip abroad – and before he went viral.
Alisa Cook, a debt collector from Co Durham, was allegedly so furious with her boyfriend partying in Ibiza that she broke up with him before videos of his hair made him go viral.
The pair have reportedly patched things up since, but a pal of Jack’s warned he was ‘skating on thin ice’ over his party lifestyle.
They told the Daily Mail: “Alisha called it off when Jack went to Ibiza with the lads. They’d been together for almost a year and he was living at her place but things hadn’t been right for months.
“His car is still on her drive, she threw all his clothes in the back of it. She doesn’t want him around anymore. She’s had inklings that something was not right for a while. She just wants to wash her hands of him. Alisha is so beautiful. No one is quite sure what she saw in him.”
It seems as though Alisha had a change of heart, however, as she’s publicly declared herself as Jack’s girlfriend since he rose to internet stardom.
In a series of TikTok videos captioned: “POV: ya boyfriend’s now known as Ibiza Final Boss,” Alisha is seen cosying up to Jack, including clips of him kissing her cheek and the two of them partying together.
The video has since been made private, but fans had plenty to say in the comments, with one person joking: “At least you know he didn’t cheat — he’s been filmed from every angle on TikTok just having a ball.”
Another wrote: “Have a word with his barber — I don’t know how he leaves the house.” A third teased: “So was the haircut a choice, or did the barber do him dirty?”
It comes as the barber behind the world-famous Ibiza Final Boss haircut has finally revealed exactly what Jack asks for to achieve his iconic look.
Ali Kurbani, the master barber at B&D Barbers in Blaydon, Newcastle, who created the signature style, has attracted attention from A-list celebrities and even inspired national ad campaigns. On Thursday, Ali welcomed Jack back into his chair before Jack heads off for another tour around Ibiza.
Ali admitted he was surprised to see his work making headlines. “I’ve been doing this job for a while, and this is incredible,” he said. “We’ve been cutting Jack’s hair for about 10 years and never expected this level of attention.”
Originally from Kurdistan, Ali explained that Jack has kept the same haircut for some time now. After much online speculation about the style – ranging from Robin Hood to a bowl cut or even a “short back and Battle of Hastings” – Ali finally set the record straight.
“To get this look, Jack asks for a medium skin fade with some length left on top,” Ali told The Sun. But the secret to the haircut’s sharp, Lego-like shape lies in keeping the fringe crisp and well-defined at the front.
At B&D Barbers, the “Ibiza Boss” cut costs £26, though Jack, described by Ali as a “very nice guy,” sometimes pays extra.
