4. Burst Fade Pomp
Fades are something that works for all hair types including white and black. You can opt for getting a high voluminous look by opting for a Burst Fade Pompadour.
These fades are very high and have a low burst fade, mid or high fade, and there’s extra space left around the crown. The extra length is left around the area of the crown so that the hair which sticks up can be long enough to make them lie flat.
5. Burst Fade With Short Hair
The Burst Fade haircut works very well on short hair as well. It has a very trendy and modern look to it.
A regular trim is going to keep the hair at desired length and keep it looking stylish and neat.
6. The Gentleman’s Mohawk
This Burst Fade haircut is a shorter version of a Burst fade mohawk. The haircut is more popularly called the “South Of France” hairstyle.
7. Burst Fade Mohawk
This is a wider Mohawk hairstyle which features a longer hair on the top and has a large burst fade at the side. It looks classy and cool. The volume of hair that is there at the top looks flattering for the person getting this haircut.
Tip: You could also opt for burst fade mullet and burst fade curly hair as well. They are equally great hairstyles which look stylish on men.
8. Burst Fade Taper
This taper fade burst is another one of the more trendy options that features tapered hair which merges the longer hair at the back more gradually.
If you want to make a more statement look with your tresses then you can opt for this look.
9. Flat Top + Burst Fade
This particular fade haircut comes in a wide range of sizes and shapes and mostly includes the temple. Rather than featuring a high top fade this one has some length at the back and a burst fade.
Drop Fade Vs. Buzz Fade
Now, many people think that both of these cuts are the same, but that is not the case.
A Drop Fade cut is done around the back of the head which gives the impression of the hairline dropping right behind the ears. For this cut, it follows a heart shape around the area of the hairline. It drops low and creates an arc shape around the crown and over the ear.
On the other hand, a Burst Fade follows a natural form of curve that runs right around the ear – to the back region of the head. The hair appears faded along the ear’s outer edge and lowers at the back of the neck.
The Drop fade works really well on thick hair and this shape can also be created very easily as well. It is a great style to opt for if you are someone who does not want a too drastic or shortcut.
To Wrap It Up!
If you are feeling a bit experimental then definitely opt for this hairstyle. It is going to make you look really cool and I vouch for it. Just make sure that you are choosing a trusty hair salon so that the end results come out to be amazing.
