I just do a white boy fade starting with a 1 low and keep it curly on top but not long enough to look like a broccoli head.

“Just cut it the same way we’ve been cutting it for 20 years.”

Layer and leave enough length it doesn't look like a fresh cut. Then I tell her I'll be back again in 3 months.

My grandfather was a barber. So I was in my 30’s before I had to ask for a haircut. I told the new barber that, then said to cut it shorter.

He did and I’ve liked it. I asked what should I say next time? He said “ short but not too short”. I’ve been doing that ever since. Only two people to have ever cut my hair

Did that for years, until one girl told me what I wanted was a bald fade. It's even better.

#2 to top of the ears and then a low fade leave the top long so I can comb it back, and line everything up box in the back.

Then show a picture of last haircut that was done well unless I go to
My usual barber.

It gets cut 3 or 4 times per week. Same way every time.

I have told her for over 20 years “cut it long” but the last 2 times I said “don’t cut it as long as usual”.
