The Hooligans experience by the numbers
We skip the vague promises and focus on real results. Every head of hair is different, but here’s the standard you can expect every time you sit in our chair.
Your Booked Time, Respected
We’re appointment-only, so your fade and part get a proper slot. Book your time. We’ll do our best to keep you on schedule.
Designed To Grow Out Well
We shape the length on top so the curtains fall evenly as they grow. Precision cuts designed to grow out well, with sides that soften cleanly.
Average Google Review Rating
Consistency is what keeps guys coming back. Our rating comes from blokes who were sick of crooked parts and patchy fades.
A Barbershop Built On Quality, Not Speed
Respect For Your Time
We're appointment-only, so your slot is set aside just for you. It lets us focus on the details of your part and fade without distractions.
Commitment To Craft
Getting a middle part to sit right takes scissor work as well as clippers. We keep learning so we stay sharp on both, whether your hair is straight, wavy or curly.
The Golden Rule
We treat everyone with the respect they deserve. This is a genuinely welcoming space for every person who walks through our doors.
Tired Of Inconsistent Haircuts?
A middle part looks simple, but a dodgy one is easy to spot. Too often the long hair on top gets butchered by a rushed job, and we’re here to put an end to that.
You leave the shop with a part that isn’t even straight. It wrecks the flow of the curtains at the front because the barber didn’t take the time.
The barber doesn’t look at your head shape or how long your hair is on top. You end up with a fade that’s too high, too low or just plain wrong.
A poorly cut top loses its shape and volume after a week. The curtains start to flop and you’re back in the chair way too early.
It's Not Your Hair, It's The Barber
If that sounds like your experience, we get it. The problem isn’t your hair, it’s lazy attention to detail. We built a spot where your middle part gets an expert’s touch, so it sits right every time.
The Modern Haircut For Guys Who Care
We’re the go-to for blokes who want a clean, on-trend look and can’t be bothered with bad cuts. A middle part with fade gives you length and movement on top with tidy sides. It’s an easy look to live with when it’s cut properly.
This cut is perfect for you if you’re:
For the bloke who needs a cut that’s sharp for the office.
For the bloke who wants an on-trend look like curtains.
For the bloke who’s fed up with uneven, patchy blends.
For the bloke who wants a clean style while the length comes in.
We're Not A High-Volume Chop Shop
We’re a proper barbershop where craft and good conversation come standard. We care about how your hair looks today and how it sits in the weeks after. That’s why we take our time on both the part and the fade.
Build Your Perfect Middle Part Fade
Every head of hair is different. These are the core options we’ll use to build your middle part fade, dialled in for your hair type and routine.
Middle Part With Taper
A soft taper on the sides and back keeps things clean without being too aggressive. It’s the classic pairing for curtains and suits most hair types.
- Soft, gradual blend
- Subtle around the ears
- Office-friendly finish
- Grows out softly
Middle Part With Skin Fade
The sides fade right down to skin for more contrast against the length on top. It’s sharper and more modern, and it makes the curtains stand out.
- Faded down to skin
- Strong, sharp contrast
- Makes the top stand out
- Needs regular touch-ups
Middle Part Undercut
The sides are cut short in one length with a clear line where the top starts. A middle part undercut gives a bolder look and works well on thick hair.
- Disconnected, bold look
- Takes bulk off the sides
- Great for thick hair
- Strong, defined top
Our 4 Steps To The Perfect Middle Part
Getting a great haircut shouldn’t be a mission. Here’s how we’ll nail your new style together.

Book Your Spot
Grab a time online that works for you. Book your time. We'll do our best to keep you on schedule.

We'll Have A Chat
We'll talk about the look you're after, whether it's a straight, wavy or curly middle part. We check your natural texture and where your hair wants to part, then map out the cut.

We Do The Cut
We fade the sides with clippers and shape the top with scissors. We dial in the length and weight so the curtains fall evenly on both sides.

The Finishing Touches
We'll style it out and show you how to get the same look at home. A blow dryer for lift and a light mist of sea salt spray for texture usually does the trick.

Your Middle Part Fade Questions, Answered
If you don’t see your question here, give us a shout on 0426 693 033.
What fade works best with a middle part?
A taper is a great place to start. It gives a clean, gradual blend that suits the length on top without being too aggressive. If you want more contrast, a skin fade works too, and we’ll help you pick during the chat.
How long does my hair need to be for a middle part fade?
The top usually needs to reach around your eyebrows so the curtains can fall either side. If you’re not quite there, we can shape it while it grows. We’ll give you an honest answer on the day.
Is a middle part suitable for thick or curly hair?
Yes. It’s often seen on straight or wavy hair, but we can adapt it for most hair types. A curly or wavy middle part looks great when it’s cut to work with your texture, not against it.
What's the difference between a middle part undercut and a middle part fade?
A fade blends the sides gradually from short to longer. An undercut keeps the sides one short length with a clear line where the top starts. The fade looks softer and the undercut looks bolder.
How much does it cost and how long does it take?
Book it as a Fade, which is from $60. It takes around 40-45 mins, giving us time for a proper chat and the scissor work on top. You’ll see the exact price before you confirm your booking.
How often should I come back?
Most blokes come back every 3 to 4 weeks to keep the sides clean. The top can go longer between trims, so if you’re growing it out we can just tidy the fade. We’ll suggest a timeline that suits your hair.
