20 Terrific Taper Fade Haircuts With Beard
A taper fade haircut is the one where the hair is trimmed so that it becomes gradually shorter and then “fades out“. Although taper fade cuts look great with a clean shaven men’s hairstyle, the latest trend is for people to try wearing their hair as a taper fade cut with beard combination. This helps to produce a rugged yet styled look to give you the best of both worlds!
Styling a Taper Fade with Beard
Most modern beard trimmer or hair trimmer devices come with settings which allow you to style your hair to variable lengths. Use the trimmer to gradually fade out your hair. Your barber may also use a template if you want to include line up elements. For a fade with a beard, you can either keep your facial hair at a consistent length or you can “fade” back in by gradually wearing your beard hair longer and longer.
1. Pomp with Fade
One of the most common taper fade haircuts with a beard features a high top slightly tossed on one side, and a medium beard. You will need a pomade to keep those longer pieces looking good all day. Style your hair using a rounded brush.
2. Dreadlocks and Medium Fade

For this look, you will need to build a medium taper fade for the sides. If your hair is long, create an ombre and build your dreadlocks. However, if you have short hair, that doesn’t mean you can pull off this hairstyle. Use dreadlock hair extensions and attach them to the roots.
3. Caesar’s Cut

Caesar’s cut is a hairstyle that never seems to lose popularity. Make it look stylish and fun by creating a bald fade for the sides and back and keeping the crown hair slightly layered. Pull off short straight bangs and get a stubble beard.
