Taper vs. Fade

Here are 2 popular cuts with 2 distinct styles.

Taper

A taper is faded in the temple area and at the nape of the neck. The cut can be worn with short hair, long hair or medium length hair; as long as the fade is at the temple area and the nape of the neck.

Fade

A fade haircut is a style where the hair gradually transitions from short to shorter (or skin) as it moves down the sides and back of the head. The “fade” refers to the seamless blending of different hair lengths, creating a smooth gradient effect.

Main Types of Fades:

Low Fade: Starts just above the ears and curves around the hairline. Mid Fade: Begins around the temples and offers a balanced look. High Fade: Starts near the crown and creates a more dramatic contrast. Skin Bald Fade: Tapers all the way down to the skin.

Fades can be combined with many styles like waves, curls, afros, pompadours, or comb-overs.
