The fade line drops as it travels toward the back of the head, following the curve of the skull instead of running level. It gives a rounded outline and keeps the back of the head from looking flat.

Book this style

Booked as Skin Fade, $35, 20 min.

Who it suits

  • Flatter head shapes, since the arc adds visual roundness
  • Anyone who likes a fade but finds a straight line too severe
  • Most hair types

Styling it

  • Pairs naturally with a comb over or a side part.
  • Say how far you want the line to drop. It varies from subtle to very curved.

As it grows out

Softens evenly, and the arc stays readable longer than a hard straight line does.
