While you may not often see pictures of the back of men’s haircuts, your barber understands how important the back side of your taper fade or undercut is to your look. In fact, the back of your head and neckline may be seen just as much as your face and sides, making it an important part of your style. Luckily, guys have many ways to make their hair look stylish and unique from the back, including asking for a burst or drop fade, hair design, or shaved finish.
To give you an idea of how different hairstyles look from behind, we compiled examples of fades, undercuts, and classic tapered haircuts.
