- straight fine to medium density
What it is
One length across the whole head, taken down close enough that scalp shows through, then finished with a squared line-up at the front corner so the hairline reads as a deliberate cut rather than a shave-down. Sides run slightly shorter than the top but there is no real fade line, just a gentle taper into the neck. Stubble on the face is left at the same length as the hair, which is what makes the whole thing read as one clean piece.
Who it suits
Straight and slightly wavy hair of any density holds this best. It needs a strong, even hairline and a well-shaped skull, since nothing is hidden. Flatters angular and oval faces. Anyone with scars, an uneven crown, or a heavily receded corner will find this cut shows all of it.
How to ask for it
Ask for a 1 all over with no guard change, then a light taper into the neckline and around the ears. Say you want the front corners squared off with the trimmer, temples cleaned straight down, and your stubble left at matching length rather than shaved.
Upkeep
Every ten to fourteen days, sooner if you want the line-up crisp. The front corners soften first. A home clipper with the same guard buys you an extra week.
