A Short, Low Care Style

For this style, the hair is cut with a #2 blade all over. The sides and back should be tapered neatly. To further minimize the thinning top, the sides and back can be taken shorter to allow for more even coverage. If you can see scalp on top, I recommend cutting the sides and back short enough so an equal amount of scalp is visible. Remember to use a sunscreen when prolonged exposure to the sun is expected.
