Description

A wavy top with a taper fade is a modern and stylish hairstyle that combines wavy hair on top of the head with a gradual transition on the sides and back. The top section of the hair is left longer, allowing natural waves to stand out or enabling the creation of texture using styling products. This hairstyle is great for those who want to highlight the natural texture of their hair while maintaining a well-groomed, modern cut. Styling products such as sea salt spray, texturizing spray, or a light pomade help define the waves and ensure the hairstyle stays attractive throughout the day. The flexibility of the length on top allows for various styling variations – from a more structured look to a looser, more casual style.

Who is it for?

A huge hit in urban and streetwear fashion for young men and athletes wanting a styled look with natural texture. Perfect for thick, wavy, or manageable hair with volume. Thanks to the low fade, it highlights neck tattoos. Styling takes seconds with sea salt or powder.
