1990 THROWBACK: "HI-TOP FADES"
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 авг 2019
- A hi-top fade is a style of haircut where hair on the sides is cut off or kept very short while hair on the top of the head is very long.
The hi-top was a trend symbolizing the golden age of hip hop and urban contemporary music during the 1980s and the early 1990s. It was common among young black people between 1986 and 1993 and to a lesser extent in the mid-1990s (1994-1996).
The hi-top fade is commonly called a punk, due to the great likeness of the two styles. In fact, the hi-top fade could qualify as a variation on the flattop.

“Philly always take credit for everything that come out but don’t nothing start there.” THANK YOU, I’ve been saying that for years especially with the philly shell😂
New Jack era.. Great times
the 90s were definitely interesting years
90s era was just different man
Damn $40 cuts 30 years ago...Atlanta been taxin forever
cj law Hairline jacked up too? Nah I would have had a Jheri curl for all that
Notice the detail in the artwork though, the hair fades the opposite way. I think it's worth the price. Back then there were also more limitations to doing the haircut well so we can't expect it to look as refined as now.
Ahhh the 90’s! That was a breathe of fresh air to see this.
When I was just a kid back in 1991, my Aunt & Uncle took my sister and I to New York City. One thing I remember vividly to this day is being impressed by all the flat tops I had seen.
It's so funny to think Generation Z kids be trying to wear something that seems new to them, but little do they know their Parents and Grandparents from the 80s and 90s were rocking the same styles and really the pioneers. Time is nothing more than an illusion to me now being a millennial.
I’m gen z but Ik what you’re saying, I’m also getting older (16 going 17) and sometimes the younger gen z 2009+ makes me feel old because I also had times like that which for them seems to be something new but for me it was old
I find it fascinating about how this style evolved through the years. People have altered it in so many ways and it's just a very special style. I have this style with braids, I also know some people who have this style with dreadlocks. Even though I'm born in the mid 2000's, I feel like this style has been part of my life.
A box fade with dreads?
It goes way back to AFRICA YOUNG BROTHA.
@@fwfinessin4445 our hair can dread up in a instance..we see it go kinky den we just say comb it or say fuck it.
It went back in fashion in the 2010s and now has evolved to be a fade with braids, dreads in the top. It has been part of your life. I was born in the mid 90s. I think it’s only the 2000s that the hi top disappeared and now it seems to not have disappeared but not be popular rather the fade with a hairstyle on top seems popular or tapered afro with shorter cuts as well.
@@PeteS_1994 Ikr nobody rocked that in the early 2s or later 2000s but in 2010 I seen it coming back I had one too in 2012 man I miss my hair Oh well
Black people hair has always been a topic for discussion, still is in 2019
I’m glad I am a black man we have some of the most creative hair styles on the planet that has art and culture!
🤔 🧐 🤨🖕🏻

One of you fuckers stole my bike!
@@seymourlove4788 aww, the racist is triggered by appreciation.
@@pepitotoro596 bruh what? 😂
Those haircuts look so cool and truth be told these days those types of haircuts would probably be $70 to $100 depending on the barber
Those barbers were artists! You could tell when someone's dad tried to do this at home. "Everybody's talkin all this sh*t about me..." Thanks, Hezakya! This was fun! Be blessed, today and always! =)
Don't never let just anyone do or cut your hair lol . people have gotten laugh at and made fun of. For having a bad hair cut and bad hair do s😂 U don't want people to be laughing at you😂
I love being black specifically black american,
Why that specifically brother ? Care to explain
Same! For those who need an explanation they would never understand. I love having the chip on my shoulder. Black American man ✔️
Black people are so creative🤣❤️
4:08 😂😂 Homie had the waves on top the hi top lmfaooo look like someone accidentally left a iron on top for a min 😂
My dad used to do his hair like that that's what the yh abused to do if u had a box you would put it into the front
I had my first Gumby wit the Nike sign in the back in 93
I was the man in 3rd grade
I beg my mom all summer to get that hair cut and I finally got it first day off school 🤣🤣
Beautiful memories!
@2:40. Ahh, this is when Bobby was at the peak of his career with hit after hit. Thanx for the upload.
2024!!! Still growing my high top out! going get it refreshed this weekend
What would these mums have thought of the face tattoos of today!!
I’m still rocking the high top
I was born in 1994 I wish I grew up in the 90's. I've been rocking my flattop/hightop fade from 2013- until now
I was born in 1995 and I rock the high top bro and me and you both are 90s baby's so I'm rocking my era style to the fullest.
I always like having waves in the 90s .
90s barbers didn't know how to fade for shit😂....and my man @4:06...I ain't even got no words for that Nike logo😯
HAHAHA! the fade looked like shit
BRO!! TEH-RAH-BUL!!! That swoosh was.......smh.
LMFAOOOOO
You'd know alot about that telling by your pfp
fr lmao
Bruh, my mom had me rocking a jerry curl from 87 to 90. Wtf
Damn, Jheri curl was early 80s like 1982-84.
@@scottthorn6858 Many ppl were still rocking Jheri curls in the late 80s and early 90s. The Jheri curl didn't fall completely out of fashion until around 1993-94...maybe even '95.
they hair line skills was ass back then but the cuts were dope
On god niggas didn’t get lined up just haircuts.. 😭😭
@@lakobeball2881 cause hair lines wasn't a thing back then
Exactly. People wasn't focusing on a razor sharp line back then it was more about the cut
Right, I think these days Haircuts look way better! But for those times; that was a big deal! They thought they were doing something! But then again for those days they were!
The shape up wasn’t common back then I have heard. In a way I think that means you have to concentrate on how good the actual haircut is as a shape up can make most haircuts look better than they are.
Dang , I wonder were these guys are today man, The 90s was the fucking bomb diggity.
Way much better than shave hair, bald fades, and 360 waves!
The hi- top fade haircut💈✂ from 1986 to 1991
I kept it an extra year :p
Its been around longer than that sunny.
It came back in 08 too.
@@jovand9250 ok cool😎👍🏾
More like 1986 to 1993. By 94 the hi-top fade went out of fashion.
This is AWESOM! I’m BLESSED to see this video 😍☺️💕
40 dollars in 1990 for haircut was a lot
Seriously man, my barber charges 18 for a basic cut in 2019.
I pay $25 currently. $40 was definitely alot back then and it is alot now.
These must be them upright ass niggas, cuz a normal cut back then was $15-20 at least in philly according to my dad
Ambitious One you better be work it if you pay 25
It’s 40 dollars with the designs and dying the hair. A regular cut back then was 10 or 15 dollars.
I miss them days but history always repeat itself so it came back a few years ago
I get the mother having a problem with her sons wearing logos in their heads. That is free advertising. She does have a point and seeing these companies' misconduct against people of color and their workers....she turned out to be right.
I swear parents back then didnt unsterstand!
I absolutely love your channel
I remember I revamped this style back out in 1999, and niggas use to clown me.... then I slowly started seeing in 2001 niggas trying to rock it in my area🙄
Can't wait for mine to grow back
Brings back memories when I use to sit in the barbershop 💈 with my brothers lol
Being black is awesome
Was*
And here Im thinking my generations more fashion forward than past ones, I guess everything really just repeats itself
That’s where Dominique Wilkins got his fade😎👍
G that addidas logo was fire
The way she said the fade 😂😂😂
THE fade lmao
Now NY Dominicans & Cali Mexicans acting like they invented fades😂😂....Black American culture is getting appropriated left & right.
2019 KIDS want rainbow colored dreads and look like fruits
R Alvarez they colored they’re fades back in the day though lol
What’s the problem with that every generation had their own stupid but unique styles
2020 And can't even get a DAMN TRIM

Looking at now, I see the evolution of this type of haircuts and fades happening. Hairstyling has mixed much more with fades that in 20 years time I wonder if we would see some current hairstyles as archaic. They look good although some hairstyles with fades can look disjointed like they aren’t meant to be together.
Thank you so much 😊
Tell me Rodney from Hammels Projects in Far Rock Queens is watching this! He was the baddest barber ever! He did the most wicked designs and used to hang the pics on his wall at Joes Barbershop!
COOL ACE!!!
that gumby 😂😂
"I'm checking out the fella with the high top fade..." Hez, I know you rocked a fade back in the day. Was it like Kid's or was it like Big Daddy Kane's? My brother used to rock a Kwame-style fade with the blonde streak from the middle part of his eyebrow to the middle of his fade. Ha!
I had the Kwame..the Gumpy...shit written in my hair...all of it
This is gold
That’s fresh right there
Where do you get all this dope footage from?!! I love this channel!! One!
Krzysztof Rutkowski is reppin it today! LOL
3 years before that “Big Daddy Kane” had the fade he called it “the Cameo” Because the lead Singer of the funk Group “Cameo”
Larry Blackmon had it in 1986 Tracy Camila John from Spike Lee's “ She's got to have it" movie 1986 recommended these Italian barbers to do his creation. A high top box Afro. Quest love interviewed Larry n he told him the history. Inspired by grace Jones n others.
1:12 to 1:13 some people call it “Philly fade”. Philadelphia put Flattops on style. Probably Will Smith in Fresh Prince
I am wondering if the club scene was at the 559 in the west end.
ahh yes the 90s😌😌 93 baby
3:33 Man took Hi-Top to the next level
The good old days!!!!!!!!!
Brothas had style back in the day.
Hi top fades and jerry curl juice

Please tell me you have a similar news story on the rat tail. Would love to see that lol.
Totally!!!
I love being black !!!!!
Me and the Homie went to a place like this near portland when i was a freshman in HS got lines in my hair/eyebrows my homie got the gumby.. they pierced our ears with CZs everthing..when we got to his house his mom called him a "BURNT GUMBY" and called me a Mezican Vanilla Ice. said we looked like damn fools and wasted our moneys.I think we were were both happy about being called those names I thought i looked bad ass..lol
I predict by next year this haircut will make a comeback.
Followed by the Jerry Curl.

They never understood but wanna copy
I think the '90s and '80s kind of the same cuz the high top fades
Just to know, why girls didn't wear the big afro back then, they wore it straight but boys did wear it and very big. That's what I don't understand, why girls were ashamed to wear that hair because they thought it was ugly hair but girls didn't think anything of it when a guy wore it....
Of course I'm one of those who think big afro looks good on men and women. Totally 🙂 . You know, the 4c hair.
I've turned into the science teacher lmao
They did a whole news segment on black people hair ......
Bruv they lowkey throwing shade in this video. Laughing how “ridiculous” it looks
Strait hairlines weren't popular yet im guessing 😂
Ah yes, the Paul Phoenix
Flat top were of a 80's than 90's
Its like this now....
I wish I was born in the 90s
nah I why would you want to be a kid in the 90s? I wish I was born in the 60s grown up in the 70s a teenager to 20s in the 80s and a grown man in the 90s so I could experience all the golden eras
2:36
Kodak Black at the end of the video cutting hair though
old Atlanta
0:04
anyone knows how/when the fade started? or if that shit about Julius Cesar starting it and it been named the Cesar fade is true? I'm asking cause I'm doing a project on black history on how the yt man trying to jack our shit and rewrite history.
I don't want to disrespect the moms / 'no nonsense' teacher - but..., let me just stay quiet. 😠😝😠
It looks good. Stop da cap low top is better
Who wants to catch my fade ?
It’s my prerogative
I'm a white boy and I want big hair, too!
U have to have our hair texture our hair defies gravity and grows up it has to do that first to achieve a high flat top
U really wrote that for what lmao with no profile pic
To bad they all kill each other and can't get money together its sad when you can't control the outcome for some of us at least but anything is possible
always some polotics obsessed white basement dewller. or better yet an hispanic. pretty sure mexico and brazil is doing way worse than prosperous african americans.
Mmm. That Connie Chung. 🤣🤣🤣
Here is a fact: The hairstyle originated in the U.S. military around the ‘40s and ‘50s. Since the military is known for having strict grooming standards, it’s no surprise to learn that the fade haircut was and still is popular among military men, as the harsh lines and angles signaled you meant business.
Idk if we can put a label on this hairstyle and called a black hairstyle
Idk what nationality specifically invented it but is broader than just black. You can see very easily the hairstyle was around the 1 world war among men of different nationalities from white Americans to nazis.
I would say late 80s till bout 91 or 92. Then low fades took over. There was NOOOO way i would date someone with a high top or skinned fade after summer 92. Did some have it? Yes. And the were whack
gospelevans tbh they back in now lol
@@plank7316 true lol
I’d say about 88-92. By ‘93 the high top was dying fast
Wtf☠️☠️
Is this cut possible for white people or what?
Unless you use some moisturizer or maybe not since white people have different hair textures maybe if you was mixed then yeah
No
It worked for MC Serch and Prime Minister Pete Nice of 3rd Bass, Vanilla Ice, Kid Rock, and Shaggy 2Dope of Insane Clown Posse ICP. Back in the late 80's and early 90's, White Rappers wanted to have a Hi-top fade hairstyle which is still Fresh 2day but as a African American male, I love the Hi-top fade haircut, used to rock one back in the day, but I seen the Hi-top fade haircut in a diverse way, not just us Black people, but White, Hispanic, and Asian. It is not always in the Hip-hop nation, it is the Culture within your soul. As long as you got the soul within your heart as well as God in your heart, it is not about the race, it is about unity that is forever extraordinary.
@@frederickblackwell9960 when people said no I instantly thought of all the white rappers form the 90s 😂 people kinda dumb
WTF ????
