56. Brushed Back Hair with Taper Fade
If you are looking for a stylish and neat hairstyle ideal for all occasions, including a corporate environment, brushed-back hair with a taper fade is perfect.

Spikes can be achieved with various hair textures and types, and the right products will make all the difference; you want to achieve the look with a strong-hold product if it’s longer, but pomade or wax works well for short hair.
