CLIPPER TIPS

Get Your Spring/Summer Toolkit Ready for Trending Styles

By Angie Perino Licensed Professional and Andis Global Education Manager

The world of modern barbering is constantly evolving and embracing new trends. As we move into the spring and summer months, there are a few key hair trends you need to know about.

Classic Fade

The classic fade is still as popular as ever. When it comes to versatile looks, fades have stood the test of time. This look can be created in a variety of lengths and shapes that best flatter the person wearing it.

Taper Fade

Taper fades are also becoming increasingly popular; they feature a smooth transition between short and long hair, while offering a modern look that’s both stylish and sophisticated.

Mullet Fades

These were a popular look in the 80s and have made a strong comeback around the world. Pair the mullet cut with a low fade to accentuate its shape and style. Your mullet length can be determined by your hair texture, if you have curls you can allow them to be tousled and full of volume to pay true homage to this throwback look.

Texturizing

Texture is also key in all haircuts right now; think tousled waves to add definition in the right places - this can take something basic and make it look totally fresh again! From cropped quiffs to longer relaxed cuts, texture is being added where it may once have been overlooked, creating unique styles for those who crave something different.

The Right Tools

Having the right tools for the job can easily make or break a style. The new Andis reVITE clipper with interchangeable, adjustable blades makes it great for both fades and tapers. Pair your clipper with the new beSPOKE trimmer to easily add texture and any design work. And finish off your cuts with the reSURGE shaver for the smoothest fades.
