Waves are a classic hairstyle, mainly characterized by a unique wave pattern around the head. If you're new to the wave game, sticking to a routine can be your biggest challenge. Frequent brushing is a must to flatten tight curls and form a unique “wave” pattern. Cut by Uppercut Deluxe Ambassador Shane Nesbitt, this fade wave combines a high, tight fade with a cropped cut at the top to accentuate the waves.
An absolute must for barbers struggling to perfect this cut: “Never cut the top against the grain!” Go with the flow and try not to go against the waves to emphasize them rather than cut them.
If you're chasing this cut for yourself, start with a good wave routine and trust the process. If you're new to the game, ask your barber for tips on waves. Once your waves are secure, ask your trusted barber for a tune-up that will strengthen your waves without undoing all your hard work.
The right products are the key to a consistently successful styling routine. The pro secret is a deluxe pomade and monster hold for shedding waves. It's been a long-time favorite at Shane's and is gaining significant momentum in the industry. If you need a product with strong hold to condition unmanageable hair, then Monster Hold is the way to go. Traditional wax-based pomades go a long way. Start by applying a small amount and add more as needed to get smooth, clean waves. If you're looking for a more modern, easy-rinse approach, Deluxe Pomade is the way to go. The fan-favorite water-based pomade is easy to apply and comes off with a quick wash.
About Monster Hold
Monster Hold is a traditional wax-based pomade that can be reworked throughout the day.
This is an extra strong, sweat-resistant wax made specifically for traditional or bold styles that need a little extra hold. This product has a weighted hold, making it perfect for controlling your style all day long.
Monster Hold is wax-based so it doesn't harden and is perfect for people who want to change up their style. This means that it will not come off with water or sweat. To remove monster hold from your hair, we recommend using Uppercut Deluxe Detox and Digrease Shampoo.
