high and tight
Closely cropped sides
High and tight describes a close-cropped haircut where the sides and back are shaved or buzzed very short while slightly more length remains on top.
The style is strongly associated with military service, particularly the U.S.
Marines, where it originated as a practical and uniform appearance.
In baseball, a high and tight pitch is one thrown near the batter's head or hands, used to back them off the plate or set up an outside pitch.
