It is entirely up to you where you begin your fade. This low style features a two-inch-long fade around the ear. The overall effect is subtle, but it has an undeniable sharpening effect.

High Fade

High-fade haircuts are ideal for creating the ultimate contrast between your long hair on top and faded detail on the bottom. A beard, a high top fade and a tight hairstyle like a crop top fade are ideal for round or square face shapes because it elongates the face.

Mid-Fade Hair

In terms of length and style detail, short haircuts with full beards have a lot of leeways. Mid-fade hairstyles are trendy but one-of-a-kind. To achieve a shadow fade haircut, taper your fade from the sides of the head to the middle of the forehead.

A burst fade haircut with a chinstrap beard looks great on black men with textured hair. This is a clean-cut, so pair the precise beard pruning with an excellently maintained fade hairstyle.

Skin fades are fade hairstyles in which a section of the hair is cut so close to the skin that it is essentially bald. The look is particularly striking, with a thick, faded beard and long, textured hair on top.

This bald fade is similar to a skin fade but more intense as it fades to zero or 0.5. We especially like this effect around the ears because the fade is tapered into the beard.

Taper Fade With Stubble

A zero-fade hairstyle combines a low, medium, or high fade with long hair on top. With angled bangs and a scruff a quarter down the neck, this medium fade haircut looks cool. Fade details add a vital pop of freshness here.

The fade is subtle and concentrated near the temples. This is ideal if you want a slight fade highlighting your long hair on top and a healthy beard on the bottom.

Slick Fade With Long Beard

If your beard is particularly long, fades can help to open up your face. It gives you a modern and slightly edgy appearance. If your hair is long, slick it back to keep your handsome face open.

Fade With Long and Full Beard

Full beards are becoming less popular, so why not add a modern touch with a sweet fade at the temples? This look works well with solid hair but is enhanced by the salt and pepper vibes. Furthermore, a long, full beard balances out the pompadour.

Short Fade With Goatee

The mustache is a work of art, and you can altogether avoid it, but this is possible when you combine an elaborate mustache, a long beard, and a faded haircut.

You don’t always need a long beard, especially if you have curly hair and skin fade. A faded, heavy stubble connecting the skin fade beneath your curls can make you look just as good.
