John Legend: Afro Taper Haircut And Beard
John Legend likes to keep things classic when it comes to his hair – he opts for a taper, low fade and beard combo that looks elegant and refined.
Why We Love It:
No one does minimalist classic style like John Legend and his tapered afro haircut with a well-groomed beard has been a favourite of his for a number of years. Sure, the US singer doesn’t make any bold statements with his hair but the result is understated styling at its best.
Protect Afro hair with regular hair treatments such as overnight masks and nourish beards with an oil.
What To Ask Your Barber:
- To get John Legend’s look ask your barber for a taper. You’ll need to see your barber regularly to keep the style precise and sharp.
- Go for a low fade on the sides and make sure edges are on point.
- Keep your beard tidy but with a bit of length.
Get The Look
- John Legend’s Afro taper hairstyle has great curl definition.
- Start on dry hair and use an Afro pick. Then, apply pomade to speed up the curl-forming process.
- You could use a curl sponge. Starting at the crown of the head, rub it in a circular motion clockwise around the head for 1-5 minutes.
- You can smooth any flyaways into shape with your palms and a dab of matte paste.
- Smooth an oil into your beard to keep it nourished.
