Overview

Tight on the sides, balanced on top, and detailed before you leave.

A skin fade moves from bare skin into short length with a smooth, controlled transition. The height, weight, and blend are adjusted to your head shape, hair texture, and how clean or dramatic you want the finish to feel.

This is a strong fit if you want a cut that looks especially crisp right after the appointment and keeps the perimeter looking neat between visits.

What to expect

  • Short-to-skin blend through the sides and back.
  • Top length left to match your preferred shape and styling routine.
  • Neck cleanup and final detailing before the appointment wraps.
