How it is cut
- Straight hair needs controlled debulking above the taper so the side profile stays clean.
- The final shape should be checked from the side, front, and back before the neckline is finished.
Maintenance tips
- Use lightweight product so straight hair keeps movement.
- Refresh the fade every 2 to 3 weeks before the shortest area grows blurry.
- Start styling with texture powder, then add more product only where the top needs control.
