A taper fade haircut is one of the most recognizable, iconic styles in the world of hair. It’s stayed for so long because of its timeless look, clean style, and versatile appearance. It’s great for casual and formal situations, so whether you work in an office or at home, it’ll suit you nicely.
What Do I Need For The Taper Fade Haircut?
The taper fade haircut isn’t a particularly long style. Anywhere from 2 to 4+ inches of hair will work. However, the longer your hair, the less neat it will look, so 2 to 4 inches is a good range to aim for.
Since the taper fade is a shorter style that gets progressively shorter, you’ll have to decide if it’s the right cut for you. For example, if you have a scar on your head that you don’t want to show, a taper fade haircut could reveal it. See how the cut looks in the provided pictures, and from there, you can determine whether or not it will be a good style for you.

The high and tight fade is usually seen in military men. This style requires shaving a larger part of the sides as well as the back of the head. Buzzed hair is left on top.
Bald Fade
The bald fade is for those who are bald or almost bald. It is similar to the military buzz cut, but the fade is shorter. it goes from the sides to the top of the head, where the fade is largest.
Faux Hawk
Here, a pointed fade is given. The long hair on top is spiked upward. This isn’t as dramatic as the mohawk, so it’s better suits a wider range of situations.
High Top Fade
The high top is popular among young men with curly or afro-textured hair. In this style, the hair at the sides and back is cut short. Then, they’re tapered upward to achieve the high top look. Generally, the taper starts at ear-level, and the top can be anywhere from 2 to 5 inches, depending upon the hair’s texture and customer requirements.
