The Faded Flattop
» from Blake D on May '06 | 46 people rated. | 636 people thumbed.

Hair tools you will need:

  1. Comb
  2. Professional clipper
  3. Thinning shear
  4. Thin taper comb
  1. Back: Start with #3 attachment at bottom back neckline.
    Note: Keep hair damp for easier cutting and control.
  2. Keep #3 attachment close to head all the way up to crown.
    Note: Finish with attachments straight up (toward ceiling).
  3. Keep #2 attachment close to head one inch below #3 attachment.
    Note: Cut form long down to short hair.
  4. Keep #1 attachment close to head one inch below #2 attachment, use regular clipper blade one inch below #1 attachment.
  1. Finish back: 3-2-1 faded neckline.
    Note: Line across bottom is optional.
  2. Sides: use #3 attachment up to parietal ridge. Finish toward ceiling.
  3. Use #2 attachment close to head one inch blow #3 attachment.
  4. Use #1 attachment one inch below #2 attachment.
  1. Use regular clipper blade one inch below #1 attachment.
    Note: in clipper has side lever, you may use blades open, then closed on bottom.
  2. Use clipper-over-comb technique to cut straight wall up each side.
  3. Use clipper-over-comb technique to cut crown short.
    Note: Some guys prefer a squared-up crown.
  4. Top: brush hair up and back. Cut guide across front with comb flat on base.
    Note: The front 9one to two inches) is longest part of flattop.
  1. Cut front to back, each cut is width of comb.
    Note: Stay at same level with each cut.
  2. Cut flat strop down middle of head. Then use wax product to brush sides straight up.
  3. Use clipper-over-comb technique to flatten corners.
  4. Smoothly run clippers across top to cut any extra hairs.
    Note: Brace clippers to hold them steady.
  1. To polish whole haircut: remove any clipper lines or dark spots with thinning shears and thin taper comb.
  2. With finishing clippers trim sideburns, around ears and back neckline.
    Finishing note: the difficulty of the flattop cut is putting a square on an oval. So, think box.

This style can be found in Technical Volume 37!

First off, the name of the cut is wrong, its actually called the Box Cut. All edges are saved during the cut.

This style is a statement. The barbering is excellent. It defies transitory fashion. It is a masculine haircut, and that's why there are so many negative comments from girls who want their men to look like girls and from guys who want to look like, well...not guys.

It is an atrocious haircut, and he looks...Oh, Lordy, it's awful.
Please, stay in the 70's.
