Taper Fade Haircuts for Black Men

To stay on top of the latest trends, having a taper fade haircut will ensure you are keeping up with the times. Tapered cuts have hair longer on top while the hair gradually gets shorter as it approaches the nape and sides. Normally the hair on top is 2 to 4 inches long while the rest of the hair is shorter. Modern taper fades allow the hair on top to be longer. The hairline around the perimeter is cut extremely short, but left intact which is a main difference when sportin’ a taper fade haircut.
