Professional brief

What to ask for

  1. 1

    Keep approximately 4 cm on top and create short, choppy point-cut layers.

  2. 2

    Direct the top slightly forward, leaving the fringe short, broken, and above the eyebrows.

  3. 3

    Build a continuous mid-high skin fade through the temples, sides, and rear.

  4. 4

    Keep the temple transition clean and natural rather than drawing a hard painted lineup.

  5. 5

    Finish with a softly tapered natural neckline and a small amount of matte product.

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 sharp you want the fade to remain. These intervals are practical starting points, not fixed rules.

Find a professional for this style
Daily styling
Work a small amount of matte product through damp or dry hair and direct it forward.
Fade refresh
Typically every 2–3 weeks if a crisp skin fade is important to you.
Full reshape
Typically every 4–6 weeks, depending on growth and preferred silhouette.
Adaptation
The crop can be adapted to other textures, but the finished movement and volume will differ.

Why this record passed with warnings
  • The rear crown appears marginally fuller than the three-quarter reference but remains within the same haircut family.
  • AI-derived viewpoints are internally consistent illustrations, not proof that one physical 3D subject was photographed from four angles.
