The KsFreak Haircut: Zero Fade Undercut Explained

The Legendary KsFreak Haircut

YouTube is everywhere, and so are its vloggers. In German-speaking countries KsFreakWhatElse is one of the most in-demand channels going, and KsFreak himself, the Austrian YouTuber behind it, has a fan base that keeps growing. His followers are keen to copy the young man's style in particular and want that look for themselves. The first thing on that list is, naturally, the haircut. So we have given today's Charlemagne Premium blog post over to exactly that, and the lines below get into the YouTuber and his KsFreak haircut.

How the KsFreakWhatElse channel changed

KsFreakWhatElse started out on YouTube with gaming content. Over time the entertainer shifted his output and swapped over to entertainment and lifestyle. That change made the channel attractive to a much wider audience and KsFreak really took off.

Marcel Dähne, the YouTuber behind the KsFreak haircut

Marcel Dähne, which is KsFreak's real name, runs the German-language channel that made him well known through his YouTube content.

Austrian by birth and from Linz originally, Marcel Dähne moved to Berlin as his success grew, then left again fairly quickly once fans started turning up outside his front door. He says of himself that he sorts his jackets and shirts by colour and has a certain weakness for shoes.

The KsFreak haircut, and his overall appearance in general, matters a great deal to him. No surprise, then, that hair styling videos do well on his channel.

The KsFreak haircut: always changing, still consistent

The KsFreak haircut is essentially long hair on top with short sides and back. An undercut, in other words. Marcel Dähne does like a bit of flash in his version of it from time to time. Bleached hair on top is just one of the variations KsFreak has run with. The distinctive part is how the very short sides and back run out and then blend upwards into the length on top: a zero fade.

As you have read, the KsFreak haircut turns up in all sorts of variations. If you are planning to get your barber to put a similar look on your head, it helps to bring a photo or two of the YouTuber to your appointment. That way you can be sure you walk out with the cut you actually wanted. The barber takes care of everything else. The combination of an undercut and a good beard can also work wonders visually. Give it a try, because:

„A healthy and well groomed beard is important for a real man, that's why we offer everything you need to keep yours doing so.“

The legendary KsFreak haircut

As barbers with more than 20 years in the trade between us, we went looking for styling & care products that convinced us 100%. There were some good products on the market, but none that gave us everything we needed. After some thought we decided in 2014 to develop our own range. For two years we used every free minute after work at the barbershop to refine the formulations down in our cellar. When it came to ingredients, only the best was good enough. We bought the finest jojoba oils available in Morocco, and argan oil from Italy.

After two years and a good many attempts our first product line was ready, and it has been winning customers over ever since. We think 98% positive reviews speak for themselves. Since the official launch in 2016 it has of course been developed further, continuously. That is just one of the reasons Charlemagne Premium products have won not one but several comparison tests in recent years.

You will find all our products right here in our online store. For any questions about them, you can reach us any time at info@charlemagne-premium.com.
