low fade

Short-sided hair cut

A low fade is a men's haircut where the hair gradually tapers from longer on top to very short or skin-close near the ears and neckline, with the fade beginning low on the head—just above the ears rather than higher up the sides.

The style offers a subtle, clean look compared to mid or high fades: I asked the barber for a low fade with some length on top.
