Classic haircut, fade or scissor cut?

01$40

Classic Haircut

A softer everyday shape that grows out cleanly.

Best for: versatility and moderate maintenance

02$45

Fade Haircut

Shorter sides with stronger contrast and a sharper finish.

Best for: sharp contrast and a defined finish

03$55

Scissor Haircut

More time for length, movement and detailed shaping.

Best for: medium or longer hair

If you are choosing between a fade and a taper, Barberhood's complete fade versus taper guide explains the technical difference. In short, a taper keeps the shortest blending around the sideburns and neckline, while a fade creates a more noticeable transition across the sides and back.
