Judging by Kanye West‘s brand new fade, the 90s really are back!
Currently on tour for the Australian leg of his “Yeezus” tour, Kanye just unveiled a new geometric fade that is equal parts curious and Kid ‘n Play cool. Kanye’s long-time barber, Ibn Jasper, posted images of the haircut on his Instagram, describing it as “New KW x Ibn Jasper Vibez.”
And I’ve gotta say, I’m certainly vibing on this look.
The top and sides of Kanye’s crown feature shaved arrow symbols, directing eyes to Kanye’s cute mug, or maybe, as some have suggested, in tribute to Aang from “Avatar: The Last Airbender”.
Ever the trendsetter, the style is also a smart match for his minimalist look adopted within the past couple of years (think those perfect white tees, well-fitted leather trousers, and seemingly simple sweatshirts cut in unique patterns). It’s not too showy, but just right.
Fans were immediately thrilled by the style on Ibn’s instagram, with one even asking Ibn how much it would cost to get the fade for himself. From window shade sunglasses to hip-hop preppy polos, Kanye continues to reign as an ultimate male style icon.
