bald fade

Tapered scalp cut

A bald fade is a men's haircut where the hair gradually tapers from longer on top to completely shaved skin at the sides and back.

The "fade" describes the smooth gradient transition, while "bald" indicates it goes all the way down to bare scalp rather than stopping at a short stubble: He asked the barber for a bald fade with a hard part.
