I remembered about these as I watched (for a brief second) House Party 2 with Kid 'n Play. They made this hairstyle along with Big Daddy Kane one of the most uber cool haircuts of the late 80's.
Defination of the Hi-Top Fade:
A hi-top fade is a style of haircut where hair on the sides is cut off or kept very low and hair on the top of the head is very long (in contrast, a low fade is when hair on the top is kept shorter). The hi-top has been a trend symbolizing the Golden Era of Hip Hop and urban contemporary music during the late 1980s and the early 1990s.
