What the catalogue description is trying to show

  • Dense straight hair often needs debulking above the fade.
  • The taper should be blended dry so the side weight is accurate.

Upkeep and styling considerations

  • Blow-dry the top into shape before adding product.
  • Use lightweight product to avoid a greasy finish.
  • Return every 3 weeks if the sides grow out bulky.
