Textured crop: Ideas & Try-On

Textured crop

Short fringeTaperedshort length

A short, textured top with a neat fringe and tapered sides. Compare the fringe line and how much volume you want.

Talk to your stylist about

Tell your barber how much forehead you prefer the fringe to cover.

Living with the look

The fringe and tapered sides need periodic refreshing.

A helpful reality check

A preview cannot predict how your hair will fall, feel or grow. Use it to discuss length and shape, alongside your texture and routine.

What defines Textured crop?

A textured crop brings separated pieces forward into a short fringe. The sides stay close enough to make the forward direction visible.

What to look for from the front, side and back

Check the distance from the fringe to the eyebrows. From the side, follow the change in length above the ear and see how much weight stays at the back.

What to confirm with your stylist

Ask for the fringe to be shown dry and point out how irregular you want the edge. Agree on how gradually the sides should shorten.
