The Fade / Style Cut
Tightens the cut you already have and finishes it clean. Half an hour, and the shape you walked in with goes back to how it looked the day it was cut.
A fade or style cut is maintenance in the best sense: the shape does not change, it gets sharp again. Edgar cuts, burst fades and mullet upkeep all sit here, along with every taper that just needs bringing back in.
It is the appointment most of our regulars are on, usually every three to five weeks depending on how tight the fade is and how fast the hair moves. If you are not sure whether you want this or a Re-Style, book this one and say so at the chair. We would rather move you up than rush you.
Book This If
- You are on a three-to-five week cycle and the shape is already right
- The fade has grown out but the cut underneath still works
- You have half an hour and want to walk out sharp

What's the difference between a Fade / Style Cut and a Re-Style?
A Fade / Style Cut tightens up the cut you already have and finishes it clean. A Re-Style is anything that changes the shape: fades, bursts, crops, mullets, texture work or long-to-short. Re-Style includes a consultation and a wash, so it takes longer.
How long does an appointment take?
A Buzz Cut is 15 minutes, a Fade / Style Cut 30, and a Re-Style 45. Cut and beard together runs 45 minutes, and a Hot Towel Shave is 30. We don't double-book. The time you book is the time you get.
Can I request the same barber every visit?
Yes. Select your preferred barber when booking online. They'll keep notes on your last cut so you don't have to brief the same fade twice.
