Hey there! Have you heard of the Textured Top with a Fade? It's the hottest hair trend of 2024! Barbers all around the world are expanding their clipper game with razor techniques on straight hair to create that perfect textured look!  We've got the cuts, the products, and the tips to get you trending!
The Texturized Top Cut

The textured top cut is a modern and stylish look perfect for anyone who wants to add some edge to their hairstyle. This cut involves cutting the hair on top of the head to create a textured and layered look while keeping the sides and back of the head short. Longer hair can benefit from a textured cut by adding a ruffled, playful appearance. On the other hand, a shorter textured cut on top and blended sides can create a more sophisticated and professional look.
​

Short curls with layers can be a showstopper. The correct layering technique will give your curls a voluminous look that's sure to turn heads. However, it's important to note that maintaining a short curly hairstyle requires frequent upkeep to ensure that the layers don't get too long and lose their shape.

Products for Texture
There are plenty of products to help you achieve and maintain that perfect texture. From pomades and gels to texturizing powders and waxes, there's something for everyone.

When it comes to hair styling products, there are tons of options to choose from.  If you're looking for a product that is easy to wash out and won't leave your hair feeling greasy, you should definitely consider using a water-soluble pomade. One great option is Suavecito pomade. This high-quality product is available in both matte and glossy finishes, so you can choose the one that best fits your style.

If you're looking for even more hold and lift, consider using a blow dryer in conjunction with your texturizing spray. This can help to further distribute the product while also adding some extra volume to your hair. If you're looking to add a bit of texture and volume to your hair, texturizing spray is a great option. You can use the spray before or after drying. We recommend this Definition Spray by STMNT.

Inspiration and Your Style
Overall, textured cuts are a great way to add some movement and personality to your hair. Whether you're looking for a playful or professional appearance, a textured cut will work for you. 29 Short and Stylish Haircuts for Men is a great resource for inspiration.  Be sure to consult a professional barber to determine the best approach for your hair type, desired look, and lifestyle.
Barbers
Barbers can use several techniques to achieve this popular style, including point cut, twist cut, and razor cutting. While these methods require some skill and practice to master, an experienced barber will be able to create the perfect textured look.
Point cutting involves using scissors to make small, angled cuts into the ends of the hair. This technique can be used to add texture and movement, giving a more natural, effortless look. Twist cutting, on the other hand, involves twisting sections of the hair before making cuts, creating a more uneven, choppy effect. Finally, razor cutting involves using a razor blade to slice through the hair, creating a wispy, feathered look.  For further review of these techniques, check out Men’s Hairstyles and the Barber’s Pursuit of Texture.
