What makes a great fade haircut
A fade is judged in the first two inches above the ear. That is where the guard changes have to disappear into each other, and it is the part most barbers rush. A clean fade has no visible lines of demarcation in any light - not under the shop lights, not in the sun in the parking lot.
The work is in the blending: multiple guard lengths, open and closed lever passes, then clipper-over-comb or a foil shaver to erase the transitions. The top is cut and connected to the fade so the shape reads as one haircut rather than a fade with something sitting on top of it.
Low, mid, high, drop and burst fades all describe where the fade line starts on your head. If you are not sure which suits your head shape, say so - the barber will place it for you.
What to ask for
- Say where you want the fade to start: low (above the ear), mid (temple height) or high (at the corner).
- Say whether you want it taken to skin or left at a shadow.
- Ask for the top length in finger widths rather than inches.
- Ask for a line-up on the hairline if you want the sharpest possible edge.
Fades look their best for about two weeks; most clients rebook at two to three.
