A clean, wearable low taper for straight hair that adds structure without removing too much side density.

Plain-language starting points

What you could discuss

These are editable prompts, not exact instructions or a substitute for an in-person consultation.

  1. 1

    Give me a low taper around the sideburns and neckline.

  2. 2

    Keep the top straight and textured, not too short.

  3. 3

    Blend the taper softly so the sides do not look disconnected.

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

What the catalogue description is trying to show

  • Straight hair shows weight lines quickly, so the blend should be checked dry.
  • A little point cutting on top prevents a helmet shape.

Upkeep and styling considerations

  • Book a cleanup every 2 to 4 weeks.
  • Use a pea-sized amount of clay to avoid collapse.
  • Blow-dry forward or across depending on your part.
