Why Our Fades Hold Up Better
On Schedule, Not Rushed
Your appointment is locked in just for you. We do our best to keep you on schedule, then give the fade the time it needs.
A Consistent Fade, Every Time
Consistency is our thing. Same guideline height, same smooth blend, visit after visit.
The No-Rush Promise
A great fade can't be rushed. Quality is what matters, not how fast we turn the chair.
Tired of Inconsistent Fades and Dodgy Haircuts?
Let’s be real, a shocking fade can throw off your whole week. You don’t have time for that kind of stress.
You leave looking fresh, but later that day you spot choppy lines and hard steps in the mirror. A sloppy blend can tank an otherwise great haircut.
You ask for a mid fade and get one that creeps up into a high fade, or sits so low it’s barely there. Getting the height right for your head shape is the whole point.
Give it a week and the shape is gone. A proper fade should grow out with you, not leave you looking overdue for another cut.

Our Simple Steps to a Flawless Fade
No guesswork and no surprises. Here’s the game plan for getting you a sharp finish.
The Consult
Before any clippers turn on, we'll have a proper chat about your hair, your routine and the look you want. We agree on the fade height so we're both on the same page.
The Craft
We set the guideline and build the fade's structure with precision. We sweat the details, the exact line and the smooth blend, because that's what matters.
The Refine
We check the fade from every angle in good light and make the final micro-adjustments. This is where patchy spots and uneven sides get sorted.
The Style and Know-How
Our job isn't done until you know how to handle your new style. We'll show you how to get it looking this good every morning.

Your Medium Skin Fade Questions, Answered
We’ve answered the most common questions below, and if yours isn’t here, give us a bell on 0426 693 033.
What exactly is a medium skin fade?
A medium skin fade, also called a mid skin fade, starts the blend from skin around the middle of the sides, roughly level with the temples. It sits between a low and a high fade, so it’s sharp without being too aggressive.
How often do I need a medium skin fade to keep it fresh?
To keep it looking sharp, we recommend booking in every 2 to 3 weeks. Because the fade goes right down to the skin, regrowth shows up fast. Staying on top of it keeps the style looking tight.
How much does a medium fade cost?
It’s booked as our Fade service, which starts from $60 and takes 40 to 45 minutes. If you want your beard done too, Fade & Beard starts from $70. All prices are on our booking page.
Is this style a good professional haircut?
Yeah, absolutely. It’s clean, tidy and sharp without being over the top, so it works for the office and the weekend. It’s one of our most popular cuts for professionals.
Can I get a medium fade if I have curly or Afro hair?
You certainly can. Our barbers are highly experienced with all hair types, including curly and Afro textures. We work with your hair’s natural texture, not against it, for a smooth, clean blend.
Do you use a razor for the skin fade?
For that super-close finish, we use professional-grade electric foil shavers. They get the down-to-the-skin look cleanly while avoiding the irritation a traditional razor can cause. It’s a more comfortable experience with a smooth result.
