Can any hairdressers/barbers help me!

I'm taking my son to a new barbers tomorrow (his normal one is fully booked up all week, ahh!), and I'm feeling a bit nervous as to what to ask for.

I basically want to ask them to cut his hair like the image attached (the model is a lot older than my young son, haha!).

So he normally has it cut similar to this, where it's shaved with a number 1 and then, like a mushroom of longer hair on top.

Surely there's a name for this hair cut 😂 I can't go in asking for a mushroom 😂
Can anyone tell me what I'm describing? The normal hairdresser knows exactly what's what so we don't normally have to ask!

It's called a low taper fade. Or just ask for the haircut that every single tween/teen boy has!

I want to know the answer to this too. I spent ages googling it when I last took my son to the barbers.
