When it comes to hair, ‘smart’ tends to be a synonym for ‘boring’. This poses a dilemma for those who need to appear polished, but don’t want to look like a tank-top-wearing, Sunday-school teacher.
Thankfully, there is a solution, and it’s known in tonsorial circles as the comb over fade: a razor-sharp cut that blends military tradition with modern barbering techniques to deliver a look that’s both presentable and contemporary. It’s the sort of hairstyle your boss would approve of, but unlike a boring old crew cut it’s got plenty of attitude, and leaves a good amount of room for personalisation and experimentation.
