Skin Tapered Throwback - How To Cut

How to Cut: Skin Tapered Throwback

No it's not a reference to your Thursday Instagram post; the Skin Tapered Throwback is an evolution of the timeless classic we all know and love as the Slick Back.  Modernised and adapted the world over by talented barbers like Uppercut Deluxe Ambassador James Reichwein.

Worn looser, with more texture and volume than its traditional counterpart, the Throwback requires precision scissor work through the top section of hair to ensure it sits naturally when swept back .  Technical clipper work is then needed to then tie the top section into the sides and complete the cut.

James aka 'Jimmy the Tulip' is as technically skilled as they come, watch as he pairs this throwback with a beautifully mastered Taper that he takes down to the skin.

We're sure you'll enjoy the master class in How To Cut and style this modern-classic.
