How Often Should You Get a Fade? (A Barber's Honest Answer)

A skin fade looks its absolute best for about 10 days. After that, the blend starts to grow out and the lineup softens.

If you want to stay crispy year-round, every two weeks is the move — that's what most of our regulars book.

On a budget? Book a full cut every 3-4 weeks and grab a $20 lineup in between. You'll stay sharp for half the cost.

Pro tip: book your next cut before you leave the chair. Your barber's schedule fills fast on weekends.
