Today, we’re going to to go over some styles to you get through your first appointment at a hair salon.
-
The Pompadour
This haircut has been pretty popular lately among most age groups when looking for trendy haircut for guys. The sides of the head and back are faded up with a clipper or a scissors-over-comb technique. The center of the top of the head is cut, with scissors, from long to short from the front of the head to the back creating a graduated effect with the sides of the top cut to blends the haircut together.
-
The Undercut
This is another variation of the first style of cut, only the sides and the top are not blended. The sides of the head are cut extremely short using the clippers with no fading effect. The top of the head is cut similarly to the pompadour using a graduation that makes the front longer than the back. This form of cut can also be used to create a mohawk.
-
The Crew Cut
Most guys know this cut as a classic fade. The entire haircut is done using the clippers and various guards to achieve a gradient that makes it appear the hair is fading from the top of the head to the back.
-
The Surfer Cut
This haircut is not as structured as the others on this list. It’s done using the scissors, tapering the back tightly against the nape of the neck and layering the sides and the top for an effortless and beachy look.
