We listen to your preferences with every haircut and guide you through each step.

What is a Razor Fade?

A razor fade uses a straight razor to remove hair at the base of the neck and sides, creating a seamless skin finish. Unlike clipper fades, which rely solely on guard sizes, a razor fade delivers sharper contrast and finer detailing. Benefits include a crisp outline that holds its shape longer and a smoother feel at the hairline. The technique reduces bulk around the ears and neck, giving a neat look that lasts through daily wear and styling.

FAQs

What’s the difference between a clipper fade and a razor fade?

A clipper fade uses electric clippers with graduated guard lengths to blend hair smoothly, while a razor fade employs a straight-edge razor to refine edges and create distinct, crisp outlines for a sharper, cleaner contrast.

How long does a razor fade last?

A razor fade typically maintains its crisp, defined look for about three to four weeks, depending on individual hair growth rate and styling routine. Regular touch-ups every three to four weeks help preserve the sharpness and clean finish.

Can I combine a taper fade with a razor fade?

Absolutely. You can request a taper fade on the sides and back—where the hair gradually shortens toward the neckline—paired with razor detailing at the hairline and around the ears for a refined edge and striking contrast.

Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?

We welcome walk-ins whenever stylists are available, but booking an appointment online or by phone guarantees you’ll secure your preferred time and stylist. We recommend appointments during peak hours to avoid potential wait times.
