How to ask your barber
Show the preview, then use Skin to #1.5 as a starting point for the sides. Keep approximately #1.5 to #2 on top, finished with preserve wave pattern and a natural taper neckline. Treat these notes as a conversation starter, not a rigid blueprint.
Maintenance and styling
Refresh every 2–3 weeks for the cleanest blend. Between cuts, use a small amount of suitable styling product and keep the top’s intended direction rather than flattening its texture.
