June 21, 2023
Burst fade hairstyles have been one of the most popular trends for men and boys in recent times. This popularity shows no signs of slowing down either, as more and more people are opting for hairstyles that involve this modern hair cutting technique. So what is a burst fade and what are the latest trends in burst fade hairstyles amongst young adults and teenagers alike?
In this article, we will outline the characteristics of a burst fade hairstyle and take a closer look at what makes these haircuts so unique. We’ll be exploring some of the latest trends in burst fade hairstyles for men of all ages and we will provide some images of these bold and contemporary looks, let's go!
What is a burst fade haircut?
A burst fade is a type of fade haircut, so first, up let's explain what that is.
A fade haircut is achieved by tapering the hair right down to the skin at a point above the natural hairline, effectively shifting the hairline above it's natural position. It looks as though the hair 'fades' away.
With a burst fade, the fade is cut in a semicircular shape. So you know the fade is a burst fade if it is cut in this shape. Typically the burst fade is cut around the ear on the sides of the head, or, in front and above the ear at the temple, as for a burst taper fade.
This cutting technique can be used to create a low burst fade, mid burst fade, high burst fade or something like a high burst taper fade. These are all burst fades but have different nuances. It all depends on how high up they are and where they are positioned on the head.
What are the latest trends in burst fade haircuts?
Much of the drive behind the popularity in burst fade hairstyles stems from the popularity of the modern mullet.
This is due to the fact that the key elements of each hairstyle work in unison and compliment each other so well.
With any mullet haircut, either long or short, you have some kind of length of hair at the nape of the neck. Then, with any kind of burst fade being cut only on the sides, it naturally and perfectly leads into creating a mullet hairstyle.
Let's take a look at some of the trending burst fades...
