Questions

Do you need coily hair for a flat top?
Effectively yes. The plane is held by the hair standing up on its own, which coily and very tight curly hair does and straight hair does not. Straight hair needs product and a blow-dry every single day to fake it.
How often does a flat top need cutting?
Every two weeks at most, and many wear it weekly. The level plane is the whole cut, and uneven growth destroys it faster than it destroys any other shape.
