"I want a low burst fade."

"Leave the top natural and avoid cutting high into the side shape."
- 4
"Keep the blend clean and adjust the finish for my hair texture."
How it is cut
- The low arc should clean the perimeter without disconnecting the top from the back.
- The final shape should be checked from the side, front, and back before the neckline is finished.
Maintenance tips
- Keep the ear area clean so the low arc remains visible.
- Refresh the fade every 2 to 3 weeks before the shortest area grows blurry.
- Start styling with curl cream, then add more product only where the top needs control.
