Did you know that a good fade can last a maximum of about ten days, but with the right trim on top it can last you over a month?
As a barber who takes his work seriously (and one who's wait time between haircuts has just jumped to over a month), I have started aiming to supply fresh cuts that not only look the best but also last the longest.
Pay Attention to the Trim on Top
To achieve the perfect hairstyle, the only thing more important than the type of product you're using is the type of haircut you're getting. Most men who sit in a barber's chair only look for the perfect fade to feel like their haircut was a success. But actually focusing on the perfect fade might just make you fade into the background.
To ensure you're getting a quality cut that's got more going on than just a badass fade, talk with your barber about what look you're going for. Tell them about your daily schedule and activities so they can recommend a hairstyle that best suits your lifestyle.
