Low skin fade with disconnected loose waves
Long loose waves brushed backward, disconnected shelf over sides; low broad skin fade below shelf, visible undercut line. Compare the front, both side references and rear view to discuss the outline with your barber.
What to ask your barber
I would like a low skin fade with disconnected loose waves. Keep the disconnected loose waves shown here, and agree the retained length before cutting. Let’s agree where the fade sits, how much skin or short hair is visible, and how it connects to the top. Check the other side and back together before cutting.

- Set the fringe or top in the direction shown while the hair is damp.
- Dry gently, then work a small amount of light paste or cream through the retained length if useful.
- Adjust the dry shape with your fingers and keep product off the very short edges.
