Low Taper Fade AIThe barbershop's most requested cut. Check the line on your head first.
A low taper fade takes the hair down gradually around the ears and neckline and leaves the rest of the sides and the top alone. It is subtle, which is why it works on almost everyone, but the taper height and the length on top still change the look.
This AI low taper fade renders the taper on your photo while keeping your face, hairline and ears exactly as they are. Show the result to your barber instead of describing it in words.

Who a low taper fade suits
Almost every face shape
Because it only tightens the hairline at the ears and neck, a low taper is the safest fade there is. Oval and square faces get the most out of it.
Round faces: more height on top
Pair the taper with a textured top or a quiff to add length. A flat, short top keeps the face looking wider.
Curly and wavy hair
A low taper under curls on top is one of the most popular combinations right now. It keeps the texture as the focus.
Low versus high
A low taper starts just above the ears; a high fade climbs to the temples. For more contrast, compare the Fade in the gallery.
Keeping the taper sharp
Barber every 2 to 3 weeks
The taper is the first thing to blur. A lineup and taper touch-up between full cuts keeps it clean.
Cost: about $25 to $50
Standard barbershop pricing in the US. A beard lineup or a design costs extra.
Easy grow-out
A low taper grows out into a normal short cut with no awkward stage, which makes it a good first fade.
