A reference with a long front and compact back has a different proportion from one that retains length evenly across the top. When choosing a barber near Martin Place, ask how pronounced that front-to-back difference will be in the proposed cut.

What to discuss with your barber

The answer should describe the connecting sections, not just the two endpoints. You might prefer a gradual progression or a distinct contrast. This gives your Sydney CBD barber consultation a useful design question that a general style name may leave unanswered. It also helps you explain why one photograph appeals more than another, even when both appear to show the same kind of haircut at first glance.
