How to Style Temp Fade with Curls and Waves

There are different variations on the temp fade haircut. A temp fade incorporates a linear shape shaped using a hair clipper. It can be high or low, combined with an afro or with straight, spiky hair. But the curly and wavy temp fade cuts are still among the most popular.

Once the fade itself is executed the way you’ve wanted it, it is also important to take care of the longer parts of the hair. To preserve the natural shine of curly or wavy hair, it is very important to use nurturing and styling products. To achieve a shiny, sleek appearance, use hair wax.

If you decide to wear a more demanding temp fade, there’s a possibility you might have to use a styling brush while blow-drying the hair to achieve the desired shape.
