Required registry views

One cut. Four viewpoints.

A single portrait can hide the taper, fade height, crown, weight line, or neckline. Every published Hairqut record must show the construction from the front, three-quarter, side, and rear. The recorded fashion white backdrop keeps the silhouette readable while preserving fine strand detail.

Cut construction

Top
Short natural micro-coils retain approximately 3–4 cm and a softly squared silhouette.
Temples
Each taper is confined to a small sideburn and temple-corner zone rather than extending across the side.
Sides
Dense dark bulk remains above and behind the ears, clearly distinguishing the cut from a low fade.
Nape
A separate low taper transitions only through the lower 2–3 cm of the central neckline.
Hairline
Clean and balanced with a natural finish and no painted enhancement.
Reference colour
Natural black; colour is not a defining feature of the cut.

Professional brief

What to ask for

  1. 1

    Keep approximately 3–4 cm of natural coily length on top and preserve the softly squared silhouette.

  2. 2

    Retain dark side bulk above and behind both ears; do not build a continuous fade panel.

  3. 3

    Confine each temple taper to a small localized sideburn and corner zone.

  4. 4

    Create a separate low nape taper through only the bottom 2–3 cm of the neckline.

  5. 5

    Balance the hairline cleanly without enhancement spray, fibres, or an unnaturally painted finish.

Bring the four-view record to your consultation. Your professional should confirm what is achievable from your current length, density, texture, growth pattern, and hair condition before beginning.

Wear and maintenance

Living with the cut.

Maintenance depends on growth rate and how precisely you want the silhouette and perimeter to remain. These intervals are practical starting points, not fixed rules.

Find a professional for this style
Coil care
Use light hydration and avoid heavy buildup that collapses the natural micro-coil texture.
Taper refresh
Typically every 2–3 weeks if the localized temple and nape gradients should remain crisp.
Full reshape
Typically every 4–6 weeks to maintain top height, side weight, and overall silhouette.
Adaptation
Top length and taper contrast should be adjusted to curl pattern, density, growth direction, and scalp preference.

Why this record passed with warnings
  • Minor facial and ear variation is visible between the front and rotated views; the coily top and localized taper construction remain consistent.
  • The front hairline reads slightly sharper than the softer natural finish visible at three-quarter and side.
  • AI-derived viewpoints are internally consistent illustrations, not proof that one physical 3D subject was photographed from four angles.

Registry provenance

100% AI-generated from scratch.

All four images depict the same fictional subject and were made specifically for this Hairqut record. Fictional person; no real person or celebrity was used as a reference. The set passed deterministic asset checks and a separate visual consistency assessment.
