Skin Fade Haircuts FAQ
What is the difference between a skin fade and a regular fade?
A skin fade goes all the way down to bare skin at the bottom. A regular fade can stop at a short guard length instead.
Do skin fades need regular upkeep?
Regrowth is more visible on very short sides, so many people book regular refreshes. Your barber can suggest a schedule that fits your hair.
