Anthony Joshua’s Anthony Joshua’s Afro hair with high skin fade and texture on top is a stylish, and sport-friendly haircut for a man in heavy training to hang onto his rep as one of the top dogs in the heavyweight boxing world.
It might look like a simple style, but it takes serious skills. So this needs an Afro hair expert.
He has a flawless fade – which graduates seamlessly to the short, curly texture on top.
His barber of choice? Hackney-based Mark Maciver’s who owns SliderCuts. Not only does he give Anthony Joshua’s hair its sharp look, but he’s also tended to the barnets of Stormzy, Tinie Tempah and LeBron James.
In an interview with isalons.biz, Mark explains that Anthony generally gets a “skin fade with an ‘open two’ going with the grain – this is slightly higher than a classic number two.”
The reason? “The level at the top means his hair will stand out when he’s on camera or at a distance. Because of his height, the majority of us have to look up to him, so the length on top means that you can see a clear shape and style.”
