Tapers
Visit our barber in Romeo for a classic barber shop experience and a fresh taper haircut. The taper is an easy choice for men looking for something that won’t go out of style and can be easily modified to any personal look. It works well with various hair lengths and types and strikes a nice balance between casual and professional.
How to Achieve the Taper You Desire
The taper haircut is flexible and can be tweaked to your liking. Different types will determine how high or low to start the taper. The classic taper starts with tapering the sides and the back based on how gradual you want the taper to be. The barber may use shears or clippers to achieve this. The clipper setting typically ranges from #2 to #5 depending on the look you are going for.
Let your barber know where you want the taper to end. A long taper will end at the base of the neck and a shorter taper will end more near the bottom of the ears.
Next, ask your barber to trim the hair on top of your head to your desired length. This can range from half an inch up to four inches.
Low Taper Haircut
The low taper cut is a classy and conservative option that works well for businessmen and professionals in need of a stylish look that goes over well at the office.
Mid Taper Haircut
The mid taper blends the hair at a middle point for a trendy look that stills styles nicely for business professionals.
High Taper Haircut
A high taper starts near the top of the side and creates more of a contrasting look. This popular option is great for men looking for a little more of a stylish edge.
How to Style a Taper Cut
You can easily combine this classic cut with a comb over, pompadour, side part, slick back, quiff, or another hairstyle. The cut is low-maintenance and can be easily styled with the right products. Talk to our barber about the best options for your specific taper.
