Mid taper fade, on your face first
The mid taper fade starts the blend halfway up the sides, sitting between the subtle low taper and the bold high fade. It gives clean, defined sides while keeping enough hair to style on top.
It suits almost every face shape, which is why it is one of the most searched cuts of the year. The render above is Lineup output on a real selfie: the face, skin tone, and lighting stay exactly the same.

Mid taper vs low taper: which should I get?
A mid taper is more noticeable and slightly sharper; a low taper is more conservative and grows out slower. If it is your first taper, previewing both on your own face is the fastest way to decide.
Does a mid taper fade work with curly or textured hair?
Yes. The contrast between faded sides and curly volume on top is one of the most popular versions of the cut. Lineup renders it with your real hair texture on top.
How does the Lineup try-on work?
Upload one selfie, pick a style, and Lineup renders it on your own face in 5-15 seconds with identity-preserving AI: your face, skin tone, and expression stay exactly as they are. Your first render is free.
Is Lineup a subscription?
No. Lineup uses one-time credit packs starting at $2.99: 1 credit = 1 render, credits never expire, and there is no weekly fee, ever. A failed render never costs a credit.
