What to tell your barber

Use this script for a drop fade mullet, then show the generated reference image.

The drop fade should support the mullet flow without carving away the back shape.
The final shape should be checked from the side, front, and back before the neckline is finished.

Trim side bulk regularly while letting the back grow with shape.
Refresh the fade every 2 to 3 weeks before the shortest area grows blurry.
Start styling with texture cream, then add more product only where the top needs control.

Open a related cut if this one is close but not quite the right fade height or top shape.
