Skin fades in Beeston

A fade is either blended or it is not, and everyone can see which one you got.

The work is in the blend. Done right there is no step where one guard stopped and the next started, just a gradient from the skin up into the length on top. Done wrong it shows up in daylight a week later, when the shortest part grows back faster than the rest.

Tell us how high you want the fade to sit and how sharp you want the line at the front. Skin, or a number one, or a taper that keeps a bit of weight round the ears, they all sit differently on different heads and we will say if the one you asked for is going to fight your hairline.

Line work and designs are done freehand. Bring a picture of the pattern you want.

Questions we get asked

How often does a skin fade need redoing?

Most people come back every two to three weeks, because the shortest part is the first to grow out.

Can you do a design or a line?

Yes. Bring a photo of what you want so we are both looking at the same thing.
