    A high pompadour and mid fade make a great combination that works for men with thicker hair.

    This is a mid skin fade pompadour with lots of texture, made by barber Anthony Giannotti of Sacramento, CA. “I really love classic cuts like this. It allows for a modern approach to style with a classic look,” says Giannotti.

    “Furthermore, you’re definitely going to need the right barber and product for this look,” says the stylist. “The bangs need to be cut longer than the crown, so it folds over correctly. You’ll need a light feeling but heavy hold product like my Victory Crown Barber Co Matte to hold it in place.”

    According to Giannotti, “This cut is great for guys with wider faces. The long narrow top will square out the corners of your head and thin your face out.”

    The layers are much more evident with this mid fade cut. Even a shorter trim is like a simple fade but contributes to a tidier cut.

    This look is a drop fade undercut by stylist Luke Queen of West Virginia. “The best thing about this cut is the drop fade itself. In my opinion, it complements the head shape better than just a low fade,” Queen notes.

    Use a product like a paste when styling. Queen recommends Original By Blumaan Styling Meraki for men to try. It has a nice fresh mint scent with a good hold and low shine.

    The Buzz Cut with Mid Skin Fade

    @jord_thebarber

    This is a very clean mid fade cut and smart look. It was designed by UK-based barber Jordan Giles,

    “I love the straight cut fringe with just enough length left so that it can also be worn messy and still look very cool and natural. Here, I used an 8 grade on top,” Giles explains.

    The skin fade is smart and timeless, giving a very masculine touch to a crop.

    Giles states, “This is a very easy haircut to maintain if you have straight hair. Get a light hold product to keep it in place and maybe some hairspray. If you have curly hair, blow-dry the hair forward, then using a strong dry-look clay.”

    The Faux Hawk Crop Haircut with Mid Fade

    The faux hawk cut with a mid fade is a very modern cut that can also be discreet. “It’s also a very versatile cut because it can be made in any type of hair (smooth, curly, or wavy). It’s also free to use in any face format,” says barber Gustavo Vieira of Brazil.

    The main feature that Vieira loves about faux hawk types of haircuts is the convenience and the ease of combing since it’s a messy cut.

    “My main tip is to use matte effect ointments or powdered ointment. And always remember to pull the tuft to separate the threads and make it fall on the forehead,” Vieira suggests when styling mid fades.

    Check out how evenly the contrast from the mid fade and the beard fade is flowing throughout the whole head.

    “The spiky hair texture is what makes this all stand out. Adding the right amount of texture and style will allow you to have the right balance with the fade and style,” states barber Steve Olivares of California.

    “This medium taper hairstyle was created to fits guys with long oval face shapes. Men without sharp edge ups or receding hair help to add more volume and density to the hair,” Olivares notes.
