@hicksonhair
This is a high buzz cut with a line up, created by stylist Harry Hickson of the UK. “I’d say the best thing about this look is how clean and sharp it is. It’s more than just a buzzed cut; it looks a lot fresher,” says Hickson.
If you have a strong hairline and you want no hassle with styling your hair, this could be a good look for you. Hickson adds, “It always looks better on darker hair because you can see the fade a lot more.”

This burr buzz cut is a mid-bald fade with a #2 on top. “I would describe this as a simple look that never goes out of style. It’s really practical and easy to maintain with no product required,” states the California-based barber, Nektaly Ramirez.
“This haircut would fit best on a variety of hair types – straight, coarse, and wavy,” Ramirez adds.
A Number 4 Buzzed Cut
@wilsidsons_blades
Here’s a number 4 buzzed cut that’s convenient, clean, and easy hairstyle. Created by barber Wilsidson of France, he says “the good things about it are you wake up, and your hairstyle looks fresh.”
Wilsidson warns that not everyone can get this hairstyle. You would need to have a quiet straight front hairline, and it would look better on thick hair type.
“You can do it any time of the year, but people prefer doing it in summer because it’s easy to wear,” Wilsidson advises. “If you wear a beard, you can do a very sharp beard with a low or high fade or wear it naturally thick and wild.”
High and Tight Buzz Cut
@gary_nelson_barber
The high and tight buzz cut is a short, simple, and classic men’s cut, which is and always will be fashionable. This particular one was created by Malta-based barber Gary Nelson. “It’s a buzzed top and faded sides that usually uses an electric clipper to achieve,” he notes.
“Although there are various ways of buzz cuts such as the uniform cut or butch cut, this cut is skin-faded from the side and cut uniformly from the top using the #3 clipper guard,” Nelson describes.
“I would advise men who are considering this chop to trim their hair at least once every week or two weeks to keep it clean and tidy and maintain the style, especially from the sides,” Nelson points out.
A Buzz Cut with Beard
@ar_fades
This is a low Caesar and a skin taper with a beard and line-up enhancement. It was designed by stylist Adrian Roman from New York. “My favorite thing about this cut is looking at the pop of contrast that the skin taper brings out in the sides and back. It gives it a cleaner and fresher look,” he notes.
Also, when using enhancements for this Caesar buzz cut look such as dyes or airbrush, Roman recommends using a shampoo with no alcohol content to extend the life of your enhanced look.
The Long Buzz Cut
@thatbeardedbarber
This long buzz cut is a mid-zero fade blended tightly with the top. Then, it’s taken down to a finger-width length with as much texture worked into the top as the hair would allow. Stylist Matt Dutfield of the UK created this cut.
There are several things that Dutfield would advise to people who consider getting a buzzed cut. He starts, “First has to be the hair type. If you have lighter or fairer hair, this isn’t the style for you because of how short you take it on the sides. You’ll never really get enough contrast to make the cut pop, which you find with darker or thicker hair.”
Another point to note would be hair growth patterns or, more specifically, cowlicks. “While not a complete roadblock from getting this haircut, I always suggest going short enough on the top to eliminate as much of the spiral as possible,” Dutfield emphasizes.
Buzz Cut with Skin Fade Style
@dksbarbershop
A buzzed cut with a skin fade offers a fresh and authentic look.
Created by Carlos Cuevas, a skilled barber from Mexico, this haircut is for someone looking for an exclusive style.
“This haircut is almost for any kind of face type. Except if you have an asymmetric face with a bit long ears. If that’s the case, you should opt for another look with longer hair. This look is not recommended for people with professional jobs,” Cuevas points out.
