Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Skin Fade?

A fade taken right down to grade zero on the back and sides, blending seamlessly into skin for a clean, sharp finish.

How is a Skin Fade different from a regular fade?

It goes all the way down to skin rather than stopping at a longer grade, giving a more dramatic, high-contrast look.

Will this suit my hair type?

Skin fades work well across most hair types, though your barber will advise on the best approach and finish based on your natural hair and head shape.

How often do I need to book to keep the fade sharp?

Fades grow out faster than longer cuts, so most clients book in every couple of weeks to keep the lines and blend looking crisp.

Can I combine a Skin Fade with a beard trim or line up?

Yes - it pairs easily with beard trims or a line-up, so you leave fully sharp in one trip to the chair.

Skin Fade in NYC

A skin fade haircut is the one that exposes a barber's technique more than any other. There's nowhere to hide with the clippers: the blend either flows from skin to length without a visible line, or it doesn't. The Skin Fade at Chaps & Co is cut by experienced barbers who do this day in, day out, tapered from a clean shave at the neck up through the gradients to meet the length you want on top. Low, mid, or high, the fade sits where you want it, blends how it should, and lines up cleanly around the ears and neck. Book a skin fade in our New York City barbershops, and come in for a cut that actually lines up.
