Max Holloway Haircut
Max Holloway has a tapered fade haircut which is short on all sides, and the crown area is left to belong. Tapered haircuts are popular among men, especially the young ones, because they look quite stylish and easy to maintain.
This hairstyle works well with almost any hair type, making it even more popular. The fade haircut is a type of tapered haircut in which the hair on the sides and back of the head is cut very short and fades into longer hair at the top of the head. The hair at the front is also left to belong so as to cover most of the forehead.
One side of Max Holloway’s hairstyle features a unique design that looks like an arrowhead. The other side features a complete shaved pattern, which starts from one ear and goes all the way down to where his neck starts. Both sides of this man’s head feature a slight curve that makes them appear quite stylish.
The tapered fade haircut
The tapered fade haircut allows plenty of creativity, making it popular among barbers and men who want to try out new styles. Since fades are so trendy now, you can even find a tapered fade with curly hair, dreadlocks, or mohawk.
However, if you’re looking for something simple, the tapered fade with part offers a clear contrast between the short sides and longer hair on top of the head. This look is masculine and straightforward.
How to get the Tapered Fade Haircut?
Start by tapering the sides and back with a taper to get the classic taper haircut. Use a straight razor to eradicate all of the hair below the taper’s end. Make certain to ask for the razor trim as well if you prefer this clean-cut look.
Once your barber has tapered the sides and back, they’ll move up to cut the highest of your hair, also called your crown. Some barbers might use scissors for this part, while others prefer clippers. However they do it, they will be sure to cut your crown shorter than the remainder of your hair so it can blend in seamlessly as it grows out.
The final step is to trim and fade or shape up around your neck and ears. A shape-up is like a line-up, but it includes removing all of your neckline and sideburn hair to create a sharp edge around your face, ears, and hairline.
Fades are more common because they leave behind small amounts of hair that gradually fade down into nothing at the bottom of your head or neck.
Conclusion
This hairstyle works well for young men who want to keep their look neat and professional but would like a change from the blunt cut.
The great thing about the Max Holloway haircut is its low maintenance and can be kept smoothly combed back or left to flow more freely with only a light hold hair spray and a small amount of styling wax.
