21 best men's skin fade haircuts
A skin fading haircut is a type of men's haircut that has a gradual fading beginning near the top of the head and gradually becoming shorter until it reaches the skin at the neckline. Previously associated with the 1950s and military cuts, this clean-cut look is now nurtured for its incomparable contrast.
Regardless of the length and texture of your mane on the top, the skin fade aka bald or zero fade never fails to create a modern, versatile look that is suitable for all environments. It's just a matter of how you style your top strands and you're in complete control!
Depending on the output you want, you can choose a low, medium or high fade. Classic, subtle looks are complemented by high fades compared to casual and sporty hairstyles that work best with medium to low fades.
English hairdresser Oscar Mcmillan fades the skin on a wide range of hair types – straight, wavy, curly and afro – and combines them with well-known modern haircuts, proving just how versatile the fade could be!
Overwhelmed by all your choices and can't decide which sharp, male hairstyle you should try? Get the most out of skin fading by reading this expert guide on how to do a sport!
High top for black men
How would you describe this look?
This is a haircut called high top with medium skin fading, but I put my own spin on it and gave it a medium fade instead of a high fade. My favorite thing about this haircut is the contrast. This veneer comes out nice and smooth and goes well with its skin color to make it a bit blurry. Aligning the hair link is key to making the haircut more pop than it would be with a clean fade. Fresh line-up rounds off the cut.
Any advice for someone considering it?
Grow your hair out (if it's not long enough). If you want the curls on top and your hair is rough as the customer pictured, I would recommend that you buy a curly sponge. A curly sponge with a medium to strong hold hairspray to lock the curls in is required. Anyone with curly hair can achieve this cut. This is more of a basketball player type of haircut or just someone who is up to date with today's culture and style!
Hard part with comb over
How would you describe this look?
I think this bare fade cuts a razor part where the sides are well scraped. I started with the machine "0" and I gradually went well in the hair division down to the last detail. It's a cut and style that highlights the face and top of the hair. I made a tuft with a "streak" in the department and it is well removed and stylish.
Any advice for someone considering it?
For this style, I advise the customer to have smoother and slightly larger hair that can be shaped to the side. It is also necessary to use ointment and hair fixatives to keep the hairstyle longer.
The "stripe" on the side helps break the hair. Put hair ointment and just pull the tuft back. I advise you to dry your hair with a hair dryer to achieve a stripped effect.
Medium skin veneer
How would you describe this look?
It is a mixture of old and new school. It's a fresh haircut with skin fading and it's a simple hairstyle with finger effect.
Any advice for someone considering it?
Hold your hair up long to style it this way.
I used matt ointment and volume powder for styling pompadour with my fingers. It is ideal for straight hair. The best face shape is square. It's a great style for city leaders and executives.
The pompadour
Support it and save all the good looks. This trick gives dimension and variability, perfect for adventurous men like you!
Short hair on the top
The shaved sides go well with the short length at the top. This is a very easy to style fade hairstyle.
The Mohawk
This mohawk is every kind of imagination! Layered waves work through the falcon, which is of course highlighted by the striking bald fade style.
Art Falke
Hair designs like this come in handy for a style refresh. If you want a bold skin cut, try this faux hawk pattern where you can insert multiple hair trends in one cut.
For wavy hair
Having waves works for every cut you want. Skin fading haircuts for men like this help maintain that contrast for a neat cut.
side panel
Show the fade by having a side part right where the shave starts! Both features of the hair can be highlighted in this way.
Fade medium skin
Just like a Brooklyn faded, the fade begins around the temple and goes down the neck and ear area. What a great and simple medium skin fade style to work with.
Long hair with undercut
Bald fade undercuts are really helpful when working with longer chops. In this case, the gentleman’s beard contributes to a healthy dapper look.
Crew cut
The classic gentleman look. Skin fade haircuts like this never fail to bring a high level of sophistication.
Low skin fading
Young guys would fade this low skin hairstyle. Brings a youthful effect that is still fashion forward.
Structured quiff
Simulate an artificial falcon with a skin fading with some delicate combs and hair mousse.
Bald fade with a beard
Why go in the middle when you can go all the way with a bald haircut? Looks good, feels great and definitely takes the top quiff on a whole "Nother Level."
Buzz Cut
The Clippers are your friend when you achieve that particular skin fade cut. Your most trustworthy hairdresser with precise hands and a good taste in style is the second requirement.
French harvest
It is as if the gods cut out these edges with such a divine skin blindness and bangs combo.
High skin veneer
The fringes on the front help give the fade some serenity that makes this high skin fading cut work.
The drop fade
Gorgeous skin fades to medium length hair. Works to frame the surface and create edges.
On curly hair
Work the ‘fro with some clean pages. More action can be done on these curls while keeping everything neat with a skin fade cut.
Chipped back
A lot of gel and a good combing are the key to this successful look. The skin fading haircut is all the more appreciated with this beautiful accent.

Wight Continues Efforts Of Environmental Stewardship With Hybrid Explorer Vessel
UK shipbuilder Wight Shipyard Co is continuing to build on its solid reputation in the commercial ferry build sector by becoming involved with a new company set up to build the most capable and efficient explorer vessels available on the market. Arksen is developing, building and supporting semi-autonomous, hybrid explorer vessels, responsibly designed from the ground up to have the least impact on the environment and take adventurers to the most inaccessible corners of the world’s oceans.
Image Credit: wightshipyard.com
Wight Shipyard Co has been appointed to develop the fleet of Arksen series vessels including the Arksen 70, Arksen 85 and Arksen 100, in a team also comprising fellow south coast businesses Humphreys Yacht Design (exterior) and Design Unlimited (interior).
“Ship building on the Isle of Wight goes back hundreds of years. The Isle of Wight builds the finest aluminium vessels in the world and this explorer yacht range fits perfectly alongside our high-speed ferry building operation,” said Peter Morton, chief executive of Wight Shipyard Co.
“My aim with Arksen is first and foremost to develop exceptional products to the highest build standards with their full lifecycle in mind; from sourcing to recycling at end of life. We share similar values with Arksen, so are delighted that we will build these forward-thinking explorer vessels with them. This project will be a great boost for the Marine manufacturing businesses on the Isle of Wight.”
Ground-breaking
The Arksen team first aims to develop a semi-autonomous, hybrid explorer concept vessel. Arksen 85 will be the first in build with tank testing having already begun. The team is hoping for a Summer 2019 start date with a ten-month build schedule.
The green credentials don’t just stop at the beginning and end of the vessel’s lifecycle, they also extend to operations. All future Arksen boat owners must commit to donating 10% of seagoing time to the Arksen Foundation, a non-for-profit organisation set up to provide project funding, facilitate cutting-edge scientific research and create innovative media to inspire a greater understanding of the fragility of the ocean.
Arksen, which was launched at boot Düsseldorf on 19 January 2019, is the brainchild of UK based tech entrepreneur and investor Jasper Smith who, after a career spanning 30 years in the games and tech industry, has expanded and set his sights on the marine industry.
“We are working closely with Wight to design and build vessels to be the best in class in efficiency and fuel economy, as well as understand the procurement process and the supply chain for the components that we use in and during construction to ensure the vessels are fully recyclable at the end of their life,” said Mr Smith.
“This cradle to grave approach is one that we believe will be common place in the industry within the next ten years, but we are proud to be pioneering it with our suppliers.”
Strong reputation
As Europe’s leading high-speed craft and aluminium ship builder located on Britain’s Isle of Wight, Wight Shipyard Co has recorded exceptional success in the fast ferry sector since its inception, delivering high-performance cutting-edge designs and the most comfortable passenger accommodation in fuel-efficient hull forms.
Wight Shipyard’s latest newbuild ferry delivered to the MBNA Thames Clipper is the yard’s seventh build in two years and features the very latest in cutting edge design.
Previous notable builds include the renovation of the historic motor yacht MY Shemara, Red Funnel’s Red Jet 6 & 7, another two MBNA Thames Clippers, Scotland’s Jacobite Cruises and TCL’s Fast ferry.

Chris Paul's front offices keep failing him
Chris Paul escaped New Orleans because they failed to build a real team around him. The same thing is happening in Los Angeles.
Chris Paul and the Clippers failed in the NBA Playoffs again. In the most critical game of his season, Paul had his worst performance of the series. There was no fight, no argument of bad luck, and no moral victory to be had. Paul was simply bad, and as it usually goes when he doesn’t play well, the Clippers followed suit.
Despite making the playoffs nine times in his 12 NBA seasons, Paul has famously never advanced past the second round. The Clippers as a team, with and without Paul, have never done that either.
It’s inexplicable that one of the best point guards to ever play the game has such a ridiculous failure attached to his name. By all measures, he should be successful in postseasons. Though his numbers tend to drop relative to his prolific regular-season performances, they are still very good.
It’s not as if Paul’s teams have been overmatched, either. The Clippers had series leads against the Jazz, Blazers, Rockets, Thunder, and Grizzlies in the last five years. They have collapsed every time.
Paul will bear the brunt of the blame, because it’s his career narrative dating back to his time with the Hornets. He’s also the best player, and we tend to blame the total shortcomings of a team on its superstar. It’s easier to reason that the star should and could do more rather than arguing that the rest of the team should respectively raise their game or at least give some good support.
But it’s not just Paul’s teammates that constantly fail him. It’s his general managers, too.
This was one reason for his frustration with New Orleans. After leading the Hornets to a 56 win season in 2007-2008, Paul never got the financial or creative investment necessary from those in charge to build on that success. Paul needed better players in order to get the Hornets over the hump. He was rewarded with bloated contracts for role players (James Posey, Morris Peterson), draft busts (Cedric Simmons, Hilton Armstrong, Julian Wright) and cost-cutting moves around the margins. Three years after their breakthrough, the Hornets started the postseason with a five-man unit of of Paul, Trevor Ariza, Carl Landry, Marco Belinelli, and Emeka Okafor.
The Clippers were supposed to be better than that, but instead Paul has just faced a more glamorized version of the same problems he had with his old team. The Clippers are fatally top heavy by design, with Blake Griffin, DeAndre Jordan, J.J. Redick, and Jamal Crawford alongside Paul. But the journey to create a deep team around them has been a satirical adventure.
Doc Rivers, acting as both coach and general manager, has made moves that were laughable at the time and can be looked at as him purposely sabotaging Paul in retrospect. Hedo Turkoglu, Spencer Hawes, Glen Davis, Austin Rivers (until he improved), Byron Mullens, Jordan Farmar, Chris Douglas-Roberts, trading Jared Dudley and a 1st round pick to the Bucks, Josh Smith, Pablo Prigioni, Lance Stephenson, Cole Aldrich, Jeff Green for a 1st-rounder, Danny Granger ... the list goes on and on. No draft hits. No two-way small forward. No quality bench players outside of Crawford and his one-dimensional game.
When Griffin went out after Game 3, there was no one to even fill in as a viable starting option. Marreese Speights failed at the job and was benched. Starting small forward Luc Richard Mbah A Moute swung up a position, but managed a grand two points in 14 starting minutes in Game 7.
That stood in stark contrast to the Clippers’ first-round opponent. When Rudy Gobert struggled with a serious knee injury, everyone from Derrick Favors to Boris Diaw to Joe Johnson stepped forward to mitigate the loss. Where Mbah A Moute had two points in Game 7, Favors had 17 and 11 rebounds. Plus, it was Johnson who won Game 1 with a buzzer-beater and scored 28 points to win Game 5.
The Jazz have stars in Gobert and Gordon Hayward, but their front office put good players around them and then terrific backups beyond that. The Clippers’ front office forced Paul’s team to play Raymond Felton at small forward for key stretches.
It’s true that Paul is the common denominator between his two teams. The argument that his teams can’t go far in the playoffs is undeniable, if obtuse. Paul’s also had his fair share of personal disasters at the biggest moments, including his two turnovers in the last 17 seconds of Game 5 against the Thunder in 2014 and this last performance against the Jazz.
But beyond the mystic Clippers Curse and the personal blame automatically placed on Paul, the fact is that the Clippers, like the Hornets before them, failed to build a roster worth its salt for a generational talent like Paul.
Getting a superstar in the NBA is the hard part. It’s like hitting the lottery — or in the Clippers’ case, benefiting from an unprecedented David Stern veto. The Hornets and Clippers are proof that a player like Paul can change the entire outlook of a franchise by himself. But that’s not an excuse to force him to always have to do that.
Sometimes, Paul will run into opposing guards who are much more prolific than him. (Stephen Curry, for example). But against teams like the Jazz, where he plays brilliantly for six out of seven games and is the best player on the floor for most of the series, we cannot ignore the Clippers’ shallow supporting cast. It’s not Chris Paul’s fault that his coach (and GM) had to play a 39-year-old Paul Pierce 21 minutes in an elimination game.
It’s easy to burden Paul alone with his team’s constant postseason failures, but the game is much more than one lone star or a “Big Three.” When a player as great as Paul keeps falling short with different versions of the same problem, it’s fair to criticize his front offices for constantly failing to surround a great player that makes everyone better with enough supplementary talent. It shouldn’t be this hard to do, and yet, it has been for the Hornets and then the Clippers.
Paul’s lack of success will haunt his legacy, but his own front offices have also failed him in spectacular ways. Paul knows it, too.
When asked about the #Clippers future and who will be on the roster next year, Chris Paul says "luckily that's not my job."

Look at Paul’s history with a wider lens, and you can understand his frustration.
