  • Guys, It's finally time to know the difference between a taper and fade. Clients at my barbershop will ask me for a taper fade not knowing exactly what a taper fade is. There are several types of haircut fades: Taper Fade, Low Fade, Mid Fade, High Fade, High and Tight, etc.
    In my latest video, I'm teaching you guys everything you need to know about haircut fades! You'll know exactly what fade you want and feel confident walking into the barbershop and knowing what to ask your barber for.

    I guess different barbers have different understandings of what Low Medium and High are. Find the one that hooks it up and stick with him/her. I have to say a little prayer right before I go in for a haircut. Roll of the dice. Haha!

      (Except for the few unfortunately fellas) The good news is that if you get a less than great haircut, the hair always grows back!

  • @ericenglund2541
    @ericenglund2541 Před 3 lety +6

    Lets say i want a high fade with for example clipper guard 2 below the fade. And I also want the taper fade on the neck and sideburns. Would tis haircut be considered as a taper fade or a high fade haircut?

  • @JoshuaGonzalez-nw1vh
    @JoshuaGonzalez-nw1vh Před rokem

    So let's say I get a taper, aside from the sideburns and neck area being faded/blended, what would be the shortest I could have my hair on the sides? Does it have to be the same as the top? I like a 4 or 5 on top of that information helps.

    is the drop fade the same as a burst fade?

    • @TheSocialCut
      @TheSocialCut  Před 3 lety +4

      No, it's different. A burst fade is more circular and kind of wraps around your ear. A drop fade ends behind your head.

    • @TheSocialCut
      @TheSocialCut  Před 3 lety +3

      Great question! These are just the most common fades. Then they're different variations of these fades. Yea, I like to taper a #2,#3 or higher fade with a #1 or #1.5 so it so it doesn't have to be a 0
