The details
A cut with your style in mind.
A fade creates a gradual transition through the sides and back of your haircut. The height of that transition changes the whole look: keeping it lower feels more understated, while taking it higher creates more contrast with the top. Bring a reference photo or describe how you like to wear your hair so you and your barber can agree on the direction.
Before the cut, think about how short you want the shortest part, how much length to keep on top, and whether you prefer a soft outline or a more defined finish. Those details matter more than knowing every haircut term.

A little more to know.
What is the difference between a fade and a taper?
A fade usually blends the sides and back more broadly. A taper generally focuses the shorter transition around the sideburns and neckline. A photo helps clarify the finish you want.
Should I bring a photo of the fade I want?
Yes. A front, side, or back view can help explain the fade height and how much length you want to keep.
