    Use Burst Fade Buzz Cut as the starting reference.

  2. 2

    Use a burst fade around the ear instead of a straight fade line.

  3. 3

    Keep the buzz length even on top and do not make the hairline artificial.

  4. 4

    Please adjust the finish after checking my current length, density, and growth pattern.

Add current length, routine, and keep/avoid outcomes in the full builder.

What the catalogue description is trying to show

  • The short top makes the curved fade the main detail, so symmetry matters.
  • The final shape should be checked from the side, front, and back before the neckline is finished.

Upkeep and styling considerations

  • Brush the top down and moisturize exposed skin after close fades.
  • Book frequent touch-ups every 1 to 2 weeks if you want the edge to stay sharp.
  • Start styling with aftershave balm, then add more product only where the top needs control.
