A taper fade haircut is similar to its brother, a taper haircut. Both haircuts feature longer hair on top of the head and short hair around the sides and back. The short hair section is about four inches but can be longer (high, low or medium fades). The hairstylist works with the short hair section and fashions it to gradually advance toward the back of the head or “tapers” it.

Drive it and then I'll, I'll upload the stuff to there.
Alright, and uh, what's your vision to do?
Just nothing spiky.
And, and like a tube with a taper on the side with a forward and up or something?
Yeah, we, we'll start with that.
You want to do that?
Yeah.
I've got a tube built to help these guys see what their vision is working.
This is the vision guys from, that's how it looks now.
How y'all's doing?
Oh yeah.
Hey guys, this is Frosty Cold and everything. You want to shout out your info?
Yeah, so Frosty Cold, I do music, hip hop, I'm on Spotify, all the platforms.
Frosty with two T's, Cold with a K.
So, this is going to be a transformation.
I've been going to about a year now, right?
The way that you've been here consistently too.
I've seen it when there was no graffiti on the wall.
Oh yeah, and now did you see the ceiling?
Yeah, the ceiling looks real good.
I'm like, it'll be perfect for when we do a music video.
I'm actually about to release the, my first like production-wise for a music video.
And what does that mean, like production?
I shot it at the Butterfly Pavilion in Colorado.
Yeah, I saw that. I know where that is too.
Yeah, so it was, I was the first artist ever to do that.
It's pretty cool.
So, that will be coming out on YouTube shortly.
And what are you waiting for for that to come out?
I'm just waiting on some credits and like to thank the Butterfly Pavilion.
I'm just waiting on that to come back.
And then I was just kind of waiting for enough buzz from that song.
People request it all the time now, so.
Dude, did you have pain in your head?
Yeah, so I did breast cancer awareness.
Oh, praise Jesus, because I was going to say, thank God.
As soon as I started to see that, I was like, that better be pain.
Yeah, for, it led up when we were doing the breast cancer awareness for the last show.
And what is it, some wash-up soup or?
Yeah, just like one of those stuff that's like super hard to get out of your head, like hair.
One that actually works and is like, ha.
It's not blood.
Oh, yeah, I knew it wasn't.
Well, it's funny because when it came up on my beard and stuff, it looked like blood.
And the shop's been good?
Yeah, it's been crazy. It's been good. Everything is good.
I just want to work on the, you know, the, this phoning and everything now.
Yeah.
And take all that to the next step.
My buddy's doing it on Facebook right now.
Does he have a YouTube or?
He does, but he's not using that as much.
He's like doing a lot of yoga as well.
He's like reels on Facebook and just sort of taking bonuses now.
That's it.
And what I'll also like have you do too is like, and what I'll hire you to do is,
with the actual like, since I do the filming in here, but like, like we should go somewhere
and do some haircuts or whatever and have it filmed.
Yeah.
Go bust some out in some sick areas.
Like, you know, that place where you hold the mix a little bit for Jackson's.
Go take a UFC beat up there and do a circuit.
That would be dope.
Yeah.
That one you could probably, I could probably just film standing on the thing.
But like the one I would say you is like, like, let's just go bust out a couple of people
somewhere on the street.
And then I need like one of those guys.
Yeah.
Just go ask if you, hey, you want a haircut?
Yeah.
It wasn't going to work.
And I didn't have the proper stool or seat or, I had a chair that was like, man, you
could have been in there for sure.
It's just a good ball.
Yeah.
That'd be.
I mean, I was going to just go through to go off and like go park downtown and then
get out, have this ----, go cut some homeless dudes hair, you know, whatever.
Yeah.
Like just be like, hey, you want a haircut?
And he's like, oh yeah.
Just, you know.
That would blow up.
Let's do that.
I'm down to go do it anytime.
And you'll be the one holding the camera.
Look guys, this is just one way of doing a taper that I'm going to show you to look.
So what I'm concentrating on is just kicking this up because I'm going to blend from there
into a 0.5.
So I'm not really concentrated on any of this.
I'm concentrated on the lift when I get to right here.
Cause watch, it's going to make it real easy to do that.
And look, I'm concentrated on that lift.
So that lift in the back is what I see guys.
Look at that.
That's this lift right here.
And so I can also use it as a guide if I feel like it.
So that right there, instead of just blending that out, I'm going to go ahead and kick this
bottom one in.
And this just kicks in like that.
I can even keep just a little space at a time.
If I feel like it, it's like that.
And see guys, you can already see how that's starting to formulate.
Is that the same for like the ears too?
For the sides?
Like how blending?
Yeah.
I don't know.
I think it's a little bit different watch.
We'll see.
We'll see when I get there.
Just to see.
Cause everything is going to be custom.
It is going to be a slightly different watch.
You guys check this out.
And then I can't wait to show you the sides too.
Cause that's a very important part of this.
And look, I just have the half guard closed.
And then I'm going to slightly open it and kick it out.
It's like, okay, I have it there.
Kick it out just a little bit.
Go back down.
I'm just going to customize where I want it.
I just wanted you guys to see it.
Cause this, I could do it a hundred thousand different ways.
This is just one way that I chose to show you guys.
And I wanted you to see me do it.
I don't just want you to see my haircut at the end.
And be like, oh, that's, you know, oh, that's sick.
Have it, you know.
So this is how easy this should be to do.
And so just so you can see it.
The guy's a little more accustomed on that side.
Just because, you know, where it is and how it is.
And how the head forms.
And how I knock it off.
And see guys, look at these.
And look, if you want to get a little closer to the truth of that is.
Just lift the skin up.
And then it allows you to just, you know, blend right in.
And then see guys, one more little tiny.
Let me even look at him in my mirror.
This is how I do it.
I get to look right.
All right, that's fire.
Let's watch.
I'll show you.
And then we'll bust his sides out.
And you can see how that is.
And this guy has really good hair.
That's why it's able to.
Don't watch.
You guys can.
I'll do it with any kind of hair.
See how I just knock that right back in.
And that's perfect right there.
Now, look, check this out.
Frosty was mentioning the sides.
And look, watch.
The sides.
Look, there's two ways I can do it.
I can do the guide.
Or I can just kick it in.
I'll show you both.
So watch.
Here's with no guide.
Just straight OG.
Ray of doing it.
And we know we have a beard there too.
So I'm going to keep that in mind.
And I'm going to, you know, blend through that.
Let me just give that a light.
In part two, he'll be having a beard trim.
So look, just.
I'm going to start it just like this.
See, I knocked that in.
And watch.
Look, I just want to come over here.
And I'm allowed to do this.
So I can just come right over here.
With the corner of the guard.
And just.
I'm just making a little bit of a rainbow right down here.
Just shadow.
Shadow work right here.
Just to kind of customly.
You know, give it that effect that it's just flying away.
There's no ending and no beginning.
And I just rock it in like that.
That's how easy this side of the taper is.
The other way, if I want to make a guide.
And I just open it up.
And I go like that.
Remember, get ready for the .5 to go in.
And just come down here like that.
And clip like that.
And watch.
And look at the hair, guys.
Look at the way it's flying.
Look at the way the hair is.
It's.
It's not rocket science.
It was.
There's a little bit of quantum mechanics involved with it.
It's not rocket science.
So you guys are going to want to come back.
And then I plop that in.
All I do is.
Plop it in like that.
You see that?
Look at his taper already.
How that is.
I haven't even rocked his top.
He has really good hair.
Like I say.
And the sideburns kind of blend in with it.
Yeah.
Just so it rocks right in.
And then in part two, they can see you're richer in the beginning.
But watch.
Look at his hair on top.
He has good hair, guys.
Watch.
I'm going to show you how to properly take it down shorter.
But add that texture and direction still at a shorter level.
And I have a trick to that.
So I'm going to show you now.
And you can just watch.
That's all.
I'm not going to explain a whole lot to you.
You can just.
You can see trick number three.
All right.
Since he wants it closer.
Instead of reverse point cutting.
I'm going to.
Hit it like this.
Best shoes in the world.
Mizutani.com
I know they're so fire.
Don't even tell them I sent you.
I don't even care.
Look at his little enhanced shirt haircut.
Tremendous.
I don't get paid from the company.
I don't work for the company.
I really don't even care about the company, guys.
It's just the shoes are fire.
See, guys.
That's a little sideburn right there.
Something a little like that.
Like even maybe.
It's just kind of busting out.
So you can just kill it like that.
It's.
Nothing.
Also, what's cool about.
Those shoes, too.
You can look pretty cool doing.
Little tricks and stuff, too.
Yeah, I agree.
Guys, since you brought it up and.
Actually.
You get the point.
So it's *******.
These all day every day.
Guys.
And I want to say this.
Your company looks straight up.
I know they're expensive and everything.
But they're straight.
Dang, they're fired.
And the thing is, that company.
I've had him send me stuff.
I've paid for shares.
I've sent my shares out.
And they're all over a thousand dollars each.
Dude, they'll never burn you and never screw you.
So that's just straight coming for me.
They've always sent them.
They've always done everything.
Go follow Mizutani on social media.
Go check him out at least.
You know, Mizutani official.
On Instagram.
Spill it out.
M-I-Z-U-T-A-N-I.
So M-I-Z-U-T-A-N-I.
And then official or Mizutani USA.
And then the owner is Hiro Mizutani.
H-I-R-O and then Mizutani.
There's a guy, Bart Mizutani.
That will sharpen your shares and everything.
So he's in San Francisco.
They have another main headquarters out there.
But guys, get with them.
If their shares are too expensive
and you might not know if you want them or not.
Just give them a call.
And tell them to send you a burn and everything.
And you can try them out.
You can try them out.
Yeah, and they should let them do that.
I mean, you know, they did let me.
But I had a, you know, bigger social media to where it's like,
I think they knew that I wasn't going to burn them and everything.
But they should, you know.
If you live in a bigger city,
they probably have someone that, you know,
has those shares.
You know, on display or whatever.
They're not here though.
I know because one is in Texas and everything.
I should tell them to send me the shares.
I just don't know where to hear it.
I'll text her later on today and everything.
Do you want to have a line-up or without a line-up?
You want to have a line-up at all or without?
Whatever you want.
I'll lighten it.
Yeah, I got you, watch it.
That'll be safe.
Guys, the funny thing too,
for all you barbers out there,
I see you guys with a thousand pairs of clippers and everything.
It's like, I have tons of clippers.
I'm going to use these.
You know what I mean?
Like, I use them for everything.
That's how fired these are.
The Babyliss Pro FX, whatever.
You know, and it's like,
which ones are these?
These are the Babyliss Pro Valair FX2s.
Or X2s.
And these clippers are fire.
But guys, I have the brand new ones too.
I just don't think there is,
I don't think there is fire.
They're alright.
These older ones or whatever are just straight,
you know, I'm used to them and they're neat.
But they're both, you know, they're both good.
For sure.
Guys, I'm the kind of weirdo that's like,
all you have to do is show me a picture and I can do it.
It's that easy.
Show me a picture or,
you know, in Foxy's case,
he could tell me something
and I already know what it is that he wants
and everything else.
That's why I'm going to use these to add texture
when I use shorter hair.
That way I can lift in his hair to add it.
It's not a shorter level.
If I lift in his hair,
I won't be grabbing for it.
Same company with those?
Yeah.
Same company.
Yeah, I'll even, guys,
now that he brings that awesome question up,
look, these are Mizutani.
These are my blending shears.
The best of the best.
Those were $800.
These are my all-around detail shears.
I think these were almost $2,000
after being sprayed and everything.
And then I also have a couple more pairs of shears
in this awesome case.
Shout out to Mizutani.
They gave this to me.
They like me.
I like them too.
These are my nano powder shears.
I think these were $1,500.
They're all handmade in Japan.
They all have individual sheaths.
And these are my nano powder metal shears.
And in there it says nano powdered metal.
And these are actually built
with a carbon resin fiber bearing.
They don't have a screw
like these traditional shears do.
These ones have a carbon resin fiber bearing
on the inside of them.
And the ergonomics are different.
You can curve the blade here.
The nano powder really grips the hair.
So I use them for touch and direction.
So every shear serves a purpose.
If you had to go with just one pair,
get the D17 swords.
And before spraying and everything,
they're fairly cheap.
I think $1,200 plus tax.
And good luck getting them
sprayed and everything.
Guys, they just hooked me up and everything.
So they weren't even taking anyone in
on any of the custom work.
So I got lucky.
I got to send them off to Japan.
And then, you know,
they did that for me and everything.
And the shear does make the difference, dude.
It really does.
Like, I would tell all these barbers out there,
it's like, dude, you,
because a lot of them I've heard before
is like, oh, I can use these.
And it just, it's like,
start using good shear.
And, you know, everything will,
integrity is the number one thing.
And I'll take this.
This is one of the best razors in the game,
Irving Barber Company.
Straight blade.
I just come right here
and I clean the perimeter up.
Guys, I'm going to bust the clay.
1821 down there.
And it smells good, too.
Yeah, it smells amazing.
And see, guys, this is,
this is the haircut wash.
Let's see where it busted and disappeared.
Oh, that's it.
And stay tuned for his beard trim.
