What the catalogue description is trying to show

  • The short top makes the dropped back curve easy to see, so the line should be even.
  • The final shape should be checked from the side, front, and back before the neckline is finished.

Upkeep and styling considerations

  • Keep the back curve clean between full buzz cuts.
  • 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.
