Cropped Fade
This hairstyle features a closely trimmed fade on the sides and back, transitioning to slightly longer hair on top. The top hair is styled in a short, close-cropped texture, creating a neat, masculine look. The fade helps to accentuate the facial features and provides a clean, well-groomed appearance.
To achieve this cropped fade hairstyle, start by having the sides and back trimmed short, using clippers to create a gradual fade. Leave the hair on top slightly longer, around 2-3 inches. Apply a small amount of a lightweight pomade or styling wax to the top hair, using your fingers to gently lift and style it into a textured, close-cropped look. For added volume and definition, you can use a small amount of root-lifting spray or mousse before styling. Finish by using a light hold hairspray to maintain the style throughout the day.
