Master the Afro Fade: A Step-by-Step Guide to the Perfect Look!

Creating a fade style on afro hair requires precision and skill. Here is a step-by-step guide:

1. Washing and preparing:

   • Start with freshly washed hair. Afro hair should be clean and free of styling products.

2. Provide tools and products:

   • You will need hair clippers with different attachments, a comb, hair cutting scissors, a mirror and hair oil.

3. Determine hair length:

   • Think about how long you want the top part of the thread to be and mark that area.

4. Preparing for the transition:

   • Use the longest attachment size (e.g., 3-5 mm) and cut the area below the marked area evenly.

5. Create the transition:

   • Switch to shorter attachments (eg, 1-2mm) and cut upwards in a graduated pattern to create the transition. Work carefully to avoid harsh lines.

6. Create hair contour:

   • With hair cutting scissors you can precisely cut the contour of the upper part of the hair.

7. Complete and maintain:

   • Use hair oil to nourish the hair and add shine. Check your work in the mirror for evenness.

8. Regular care:

   • To maintain the fade style, regular trimming is necessary.

It is important to note that cutting afro hair with a fade style requires special skills, so if you are unsure, I recommend visiting an experienced hairdresser to achieve the desired result.
