The Details
What's Included in a Skin Fade
Your skin fade starts with a consultation on how high and how tight you want the blend. From there it's clean clipper work, a smooth taper, and a seamless blend down to bare skin — no harsh lines, no patchy spots. We finish the neckline with a hot towel so everything feels as sharp as it looks. Simple, clean, and done right.
Know the Difference
Skin Fade vs. Skin Taper
Skin Fade
Blends all the way down to bare skin, starting higher on the sides and back. Bold, crisp, and low-maintenance until it grows out. The go-to for a modern, dialed-in look.
Skin Taper
Keeps a little more length through the sides and only goes tight at the edges around the ears and neckline. A cleaner, more subtle finish that grows out softer.
