When you make the semi-circular shape on the burst fade is it a preference of how big or small you do it or does it depend on the shape of the head and hairstyle?
I definitely have seen different sizes but I'm not sure if that has to do with the haircut, head shape, or if it just depends on how big or small you want it. It seems like it's better to start out small and if it doesn't look right you can keep making it bigger. submitted by /u/youlikethatsherrie to r/malehairadvice [link] [comments]

Thoughts on this burst fade/mullet? Feedback is welcome
This was my first attempt at a burst fade. It feels more like a mullet to me but I thought it would look better with a less agressive fade in the back. Client asked to keep the fade low. Went from long slicked back to that so it was a full transformation. Any tips and tricks for similar haircuts in the future? submitted by /u/Hot_Macchiato to r/Barber [link] [comments]

When I have a mullet or burst fade, why does the back of my head look extremely flat?
I really like the modern mullet and burst fade hairstyles, I’ve tried both within the last year, but when I’ve had them it makes the back of my head look extremely flat. It looks almost vertical from the side. I don’t actually have a flat back of my head though, which makes me think it’s something to do with the haircut but what can I say to my barber to try and avoid this? My hair is naturally quite flat itself so maybe it’s something to do with that as well but I don’t know too much about hair/haircuts so I’m just looking for some advice from you guys submitted by /u/k-airo to r/malehairadvice [link] [comments]

Guilt-Free Burst Fade Haircut Secrets for Glenside Folks
Real talk—how you're groomed is how you're judged. In Philly, first impressions hit hard and don’t get redone. If your fade's off, people clock it before you even speak. If you're sharp? You walk different, talk different, get treated different. That confidence starts in the chair. But here’s where most folks get it twisted: They bounce from shop to shop chasing prices or trends, thinking every barber knows how to line up a proper burst fade for their head shape, hair texture, lifestyle. They don’t. Not everyone cutting hair is actually thinking. There’s a difference between getting a cut and getting taken care of. Just dropped a new blog: “Guilt-Free Burst Fade Haircut Secrets for Glenside Folks.” We break down how to spot a cut done with intention vs. one done in 18 minutes to move to the next guy. Why the right cut isn’t just cleaner—it lasts longer, fits better, and leaves you walking out like you own the block. No vague vibes, no fluff, just what you need to start raising your standards and stop accepting mid. Give it a read if you’re tired of rolling the dice every time you get in the chair. You’ll know what to look for, what questions to ask, and how to stop wasting time and money on fades that fade fast. https://rogthabarber.com/guilt-free-burst-fade-haircut-secrets-for-glenside-folks/ submitted by /u/BarberFunnelz to r/BestBarberinphilly [link] [comments]

Been wanting to try a burst fade, though unsure if it will fit me
Just a little info about my hair, but it is naturally parted to the side. Not sure if it'll fit a burst fade to be honest, but I wanna give it a try. Any advice or criticism about it? All my cuts so far have been quite simple: fade on the side or tapered(just a little trim on the top for both). I kinda wanted to broaden my options, so if you think a burst fade doesn't fit me, I'm open for suggestions on what I can try. I'd also prefer minimum styling if possible. Just something I can rock straight out from the shower or comb with my hand. submitted by /u/IcedKofe to r/malehairadvice [link] [comments]

Burst Fades
While I’ve received no backlash for having one I just wanted to ask peoples opinions on burst fades. It’s not a Mohawk or specifically a landing strip Mohawk so it wouldn’t count as a unauthorized haircut and the word Mohawk couldn’t be used to tell a person to cut because is alaract 055-2023 the word Mohawk got removed from 670-1 I just wanted others opinions on wether a soldier should be allowed a burst fade with the current regulation. submitted by /u/Kitchen-Volume-7684 to r/army [link] [comments]

Goddamn burst fades
I've had two of these monstrosities this week alone, where normally I get one every other month. I hate doing them and so does everyone else in my shop. They suck to do and they take a long time to get even, and I always feel like I'm going to run over my allotted time. I don't like doing burst fades on adults, and I dread doing them on chubby shithead kids. It is a very time-consuming cut to do on a kid who just wants to look down at his phone and resents me for making him keep his head up. Kids cuts are already priced lower, and I hate doing an intricate time-consuming cut when I'm already going to be charging less to an ungrateful parent. Smartphones being plentiful with kids, giving them access to Instagram and thousand-dollar haircuts, has made my job so much more difficult. Fucking burst fades. Thanks for reading my rant. submitted by /u/MeatShield12 to r/Barber [link] [comments]
