Description

This hairstyle relies on a very short, evenly cut top section that looks neat and low-maintenance. Both the sides and the back of the head are shaved down to the skin (high skin fade), with the transition starting high above the ear level and seamlessly blending with the short top part. The resulting contrast between the short top and the perfectly shaved sides creates a modern, clean, and sharply defined look. The contours around the forehead and temples are precisely groomed, giving the haircut maximum neatness and a professional impression.

Who is it for?

Ideal for men and athletes seeking a compromise between a Buzz Cut and a longer style. Great for thick, straight hair and lightning-fast styling under half a minute. It suits oval, square, or rounder faces. Due to the high skin fade, it requires a barber visit about every 2 weeks.
