Creating The Perfect Pompadour Haircut With Skinfade

Dark Stag Ambassador Ross Mathieson takes you through a side pompadour with a skin fade. Filmed on location in his barbershop Son of the Bear in Norwich.

Ross explains identifying the prominent hair growth pattern to help map out the first point in the hair cut, sectioning and putting a guide in, through to blunt cutting and over-directing and more. He takes us from start to finish of the cut and all the way to styling, with top tips on using the Dark Stag Light Shine Pomade to do the style justice.

Learn a new scissor technique - picking - to tidy up the fade, and use of a thinning scissor to balance the weight and soften the blend.

Get the full picture of the final result with a 360 degree before and after and resulting editorial images.
