Drake: Close Crop With High Fade and Love Heart Design

Rated  5.0 5 Star

He’s a legendary lothario with a passion for romance – and writing songs about it – so it seems kinda apt that Drake’s close crop with high fade and love heart design sees him wearing his heart on his, er, head. Literally.

All Hairstyles

Why We Love It:

He may have had the heart shaved in last year as a clever way to promote his album Certified Lover Boy, but Drake’s close crop with high fade and love heart design clearly tickled his fancy, because he kept it for a lot of 2021.

It’s an appropriate look for a man who has dated Rihanna, Tyra Banks, Bella Hadid, Zoe Kravitz, J-Lo. And been associated with every other hot woman in celebdom.

And Drake’s thick, curly hair is always as, ahem, on-point as his love life (pun intended). MFH especially loves his hair cropped super short, with either a sharp line or zig zag shaved into it.

Which does mean regular trips to the barber. And with all that love action, not to mention albums to write about it, MFH doesn’t know how he finds the time…

What To Ask Your Barber:

  • Drake’s close crop with high fade and love heart design is around a #1 or #2 length.
  • Show your barber/hairstylist photos of the type of fades you like. They will help you decide which one will work best for your face shape.
  • As for the shaved in love heart design? Make sure your stylist has a steady hand!
  • Ask if they’ve done shaved in designs like that before for their clients. And if so, if they can show you photos.
