The secret of viral Spanish holiday sensation Ibiza Bob’s incredible haircut has allegedly been ‘uncovered’ by fans.
‘Bob’ – real name Jack Kay, from Lemington in Newcastle-upon-Tyne – has become known as ‘Ibiza’s final boss’, the ultimate expression of Balearic party spirit.
Images of his gleaming white grin, perfectly manicured beard and cartoonish haircut spread across the internet like wildfire earlier this week.
But eagle-eyed fans believe they have spotted a flaw in the impossibly razor-sharp barnet – but it’s not visible when taking in his awe-inspiring fringe from the front.
A video shared on TikTok showed him wearing a t-shirt from designer brand Casablanca in the Destino Five Ibiza hotel and club venue.
‘Man the myth the legend,’ the video’s author wrote.
Hard to miss, Kay was wearing his distinctive gold shades and chain, with the bob hair cut sitting perfectly.

‘Ibiza Final Boss’ Jack Kay has been sighted yet again – though some fans have spotted a new feature of his distinctive hairdo
Social media users noticed that his hair appeared to be thinning at the back as he danced at the Destino Five club
But the comments are unlikely to dent Kay’s armour after he went viral – prompting a flurry of offers of holidays and club visits
But as he turned his head away from the camera, some fans appeared to notice that the 26-year-old had a small thinning patch in the back of his head.
One TikTok user noted: ‘Wait is it balding at the back – but a comb over at the front?’
‘Best comb over 2025,’ added another.
‘100 per cent combing that forward to cover the receeding hair line,’ noted a user on Instagram, where the video was shared.
Mr Kay’s cut has been widely compared to, among other things, impressionist Leigh Francis’ caricature of Craig David on Channel 4 shock comedy show Bo’ Selecta!, a Henry Hoover and a coconut.
Others noted the cut’s similarity to that of the ‘tonsure’ haircut worn by monks – best immortalised by Friar Tuck, companion to Robin Hood – and the bowl haircut associated with medieval times.
‘Monastery of Sound,’ joked one TikTok user, alluding to London’s legendary Ministry of Sound nightclub.
‘Short back and sides and Battle of Hastings please, boss,’ joked another.
But any comments about Mr Kay’s barnet are unlikely to dent his armour following his rise to viral fame.
His TikTok – labelled ‘IBIZA FINAL BOSS’ has already picked up nearly 20,000 followers, while a newly created Instagram has 27,000.
He has even shared the clip showing his thinning hair patch on his Instagram stories – and a post of electronics store Currys depicting him as a Henry Hoover, in a nod to his distinctive chop.
Kay is already on his way back to Ibiza after being inundated with offers from travel firms and clubs on the Iberian isle
The overnight social media sensation has been revelling in the attention, sharing a mock-up of him as a Henry Hoover created by retailer Currys
Kay has received offers for hair repair and holidays – and has been contacted by Gary Lineker’s club-owning brother, Wayne
Comments on his social media are laden with praise and offers to keep him coming back to Ibiza again and again.
Travel firms have offered him holidays, while Gary Lineker’s clubbing-obsessed brother Wayne – who owns club O Beach – has asked him to get in touch.
His comments also include messages from huge DJs, OnlyFans models… and a firm specialising in hair repair.
Kay – the son of convicted armed robber John Kay – has just returned from what he had once probably expected to be a routine Ibiza holiday.
He describes himself as ‘just a normal person from Newcastle’ – but has thanked fans for the flurries of messages he has received since going viral.
Other details have since come to light about Jack’s life back in the UK after a woman has now claimed she is his girlfriend.
Alisha Cook, 23, shared a series of videos of the ‘Ibiza final boss’ captioned ‘POV (point of view) ya boyfriends now known as Ibiza final boss’.
In the clips, the debt collector from South Hetton, who also makes cash selling clothes on Vinted, is seen cuddled up to ‘Jack Kay’ with him kissing her on the cheek, while in other clips they are seen clubbing.
Hundreds of people have since commented on the video, with one saying: ‘Girl least u knew he didn’t cheat, there’s like every angle of him on TikTok just having a ball.’
Alisha Cook, who says she is a debt collector, from Durham, has claimed she is the girlfriend of the TikTok sensation dubbed ‘Ibiza final boss’
Alisha has seemed to revel in her boyfriend’s newfound celebrity status as footage of him went viral as she has posted numerous photos with him. Some social media users reassured Alisha that at least Mr Kay didn’t cheat on her – because no one else would want him with that haircut
Another added: ‘Have a word with his barber then because I don’t know how he leaves the house.’
Pals back home told the Mail that Kay lives the same back home, adding: ‘He walks about town with that haircut and gold chain. He’s got the Turkey teeth and he’s always on the sun beds. This is what he looks like all the time. He think he’s gorgeous.’
Kay is already heading back out for parties galore, writing on Instagram yesterday: ‘Back to the UK for a day back back in Ibiza tmoz (tomorrow) night some big parties incoming.’
It seems nothing will keep the Ibiza Final Boss away from his true home – not while there’s summer sunshine to spare.
The Daily Mail has contacted his newly appointed management for comment.
