I got a very lovely haircut, and he told me:

Middle of the face is neutral territory. Ears to cheeks, wrapping around the head, you should generally buzz that down pretty short. Taper the hair up and forward, but respect where natural hair parts lay. I usually get the top cut down to around a bit over an inch in the front for styling purposes, and very slightly shorter going back.

If you are fortunate enough to have a beard, taper it down and forward, to either show off, or mask, where your jawline is. But it should present like you got a strong jaw.

I don’t know if that’s helpful for your situation, but that’s what my guy told me. Lebanese guy, committed anarchist, and I don’t know how he reconciles that with owning a barber shop, but I cannot deny the man’s talent.

He cuts my (trans-masc) son’s hair, and it looks pretty good.
