The High & Tight haircut features a shaved back and sides, while the top is blended or faded into longer hair. It was a popular military hairstyle for men.
What you will need:
Dampen your hair with the spray bottle. Comb your hair down so it is lying straight.
Attach guard #1 (1/8") or #2 (1/4") and buzz the back of the neck and under the rim of the head. (Sections 1 and 2. See infographic below.) At this length, using upward rocking motions, start from the bottom and work your way up.
Use guard #5 (5/8") or #6 (3/4") to clip the hair on the top of the head (section 4).
Blend into the rim of the head (section 3) using the #2 guard (1/4").
Use the inverted clipper technique to touch up the area around the ears and the back of the neck.
Having the right tool for the job can make all the difference when it comes to at-home haircutting.
