A phrase you\u2019ll certainly hear bandied about the barber shop, particularly because most men\u2019s haircuts involve some sort of taper, which simply means the gradual shortening of hair from the top of your head to the neckline. It\u2019s a similar concept to the fade \u2014 the key difference being the finishing length of a fade tends to be much shorter and performed with clippers, with a sharper finish than a taper cut with scissors.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A point cut is when the barber creates a spiky \u2018saw tooth\u2019 effect by cutting strands at a 45-degree angle, also leaving some strands longer than others for a rough, textured look. On the other hand, a blunt cut refers to the barber holding the scissors horizontally to your head so your locks are all cut at the same length. Using clippers is the other technique you can employ, utilising guards of various lengths \u2014 a No.1 or 2 exposes your scalp while an 8 leaves plenty of length on top.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

You mightn\u2019t see it but everyone else does, so make sure you choose the best style of neckline from your three options. A tapered neckline shortens the hair once it reaches the natural neckline, which grows out nice and evenly when the hair grows back in. That\u2019s as opposed to a blocked neckline \u2014 cut in a sharp straight line across the nape of the neck \u2014 or a rounded neckline \u2014 the same as the blocked, only with the corners rounded off \u2014 which both require maintenance to prevent them from growing out untidily.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Arches refer to the space between your ear at your hairline \u2014 and this is a no-brainer for most blokes, who keep their natural arch, rather than going to the trouble of maintaining a high arch, which exposes a bit of scalp around the ear.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
