FAQs

What to say to the barber for a fade? ›

For a start, you'll need to tell your barber whether you want a low fade, mid fade or high fade as this dictates where your fade line begins. You'll also have to convey how short or how gradual you want the back and sides to be cut. This will affect what tools the barber will use to get that graduation.

Build rhythm using small and fast strokes to take away small bits of hair, rather than long strokes to take away chunks of hair. Always clear the area with the fading brush in order to see if the hair is faded and free of imperfections. Keep repeating the process until you reach the top of the sides of the head.

Number 2 Fade Haircut: This style involves a gradual fade that starts with a number 2 clipper guard, making the hair shorter as it goes down to the neckline. The result is a neat and sharp look that adds class to your overall style while retaining a number 2 on top.

While the fade has become a staple in modern men's grooming, not all barbers possess the same level of expertise in executing this technique. The ability to achieve a seamless fade depends on various factors, including education, experience, interest, and the tools at a barber's disposal.

Getting a fade haircut is simple: Any barber in the country will go straight to work if you sit in the chair and ask for one.

For a very short fade, ask for #1 or #2 sized clippers on the back and sides (a #1 is 0.125 in (3.2 mm) long, while a #2 is 0.25 in (6.4 mm) long). If you want to keep your hair a bit longer on the sides and back, ask for a #4 (0.5 in (13 mm) or #5 (0.625 in (15.9 mm)). Mention the length you want on top, too.

Number 3. This clipper size cuts to a length of ⅜ inches to about 7/16 inches if it's open. If you're opting for a fade, it might be best to ask your barber to start with a 3 so then they can move down to a 2 and lower as they fade it out. It also helps you keep more of your length.

The high fade is characterized by short hair on the sides and back that gradually gets longer as it goes up the head. This style is best suited for men with medium to thick hair. The low fade is similar to the high fade, but the hair is cut shorter on the sides and back.

Taper Fade Haircut

A taper fade though has cuts that are unnoticeable and are placed a little higher than low fade. This style can also be worn with high or low base hair and with various hair designs. It is indeed one of the most popular styles of today which are worth trying.

How do I choose the right fade haircut? ›

It all boils down to choosing a combination of style or how your hair should be cut together with your fade haircut of choice. If you have a square face, a textured crop with a subtle fade is great for you. You can opt for deeper fades but avoid getting extreme fades.

Hair Type. Tapers, fades, and taper fade haircuts can all be done on any hair type, which is what makes them such versatile choices. However, certain hair types may lend themselves better to one style or the other. For example, if you have thick and coarse hair, a fade looks really sharp and clean.

“Ask for something low around the edges,” says Stanley. “You have to decide whether the fade should hit the skin: a 0, 0.5 or a full 1.” This dictates how close your drop fade cut will be.

Asking Your Barber for a Low Taper Fade

When you sit in the barber's seat, ask for a low fade at the nape of your neck, and specify that you want plenty of volume on top. Usually, the shortest hair in a low taper fade is only about 0.25 in (0.64 cm) long—ask for the #2 clippers to get this length.

To give you a cut you'll love, your barber needs to know more about you. Tell your barber where you work, what you do for fun, where you go on the weekends, how you wear your hair, whether you put product in it every day, and anything else you think might be helpful.

Long Faded Beard

“Ask your barber to fade your beard into your hair but maintain the length and thickness,” says Chapman. “A picture of what you want is always the best way to get the right result and avoid any confusion.”
