Furthermore, there are different ways to style a flat top hairstyle, such as adding hair designs and with a part. Ultimately, the flat top fade offers a trendy, fresh, clean-cut look that combines old school with a modern twist.

Flat Top Fade

While the short flat top is generally much more popular these days than the high top fade of the 80s, the flat top fade usually looks best with a bald fade on the sides and thick hair standing up on top. A high skin fade haircut on the sides paired with a line up or shape up that cleans the hairline will really accentuate the flat top cut.

Flat Top Fade

However, your hairstyle should be able to accommodate any type of cut you want, including a temp fade, low taper fade, or even shaved sides. As long as you get a haircut with short sides and long hair on top, you should be able to style a flat top as a black guy or white man.

How To Cut A Flat Top Haircut

To cut a flat top fade, you’ll want to ask your barber for a low or high fade with your hair on top cut into a box shape. The flat top hairstyle must be brushed up vertically and form a flat or sloped deck. And if you’re a black man with curly hair, even a curly flat top fade is achievable with the right cut and styling!
