The high and tight haircut is probably one of the easiest hairstyles for men to get and maintain. Also known as a military high and tight, this high fade haircut works best for guys who have a nicely-shaped head because the defining feature is a very short cut on the sides and back coupled with a buzzed top. However, it’s important to note that the high and tight is no longer only reserved for military members. In recent years, civilian men have chosen the style for its simplicity. In fact, the cut may be a good choice if you have curly hair that’s difficult to manage and style.
