The menu

What we cut, and how long it takes

Every service has a time. Prices are shown when you book.

Fades and cuts

  • Skin fade

    45–60 min

    Clippers taken down to the skin and blended up through the sides and back. Cut on coils, waves, curls or straight hair.

    Consultation first
    Book: Skin fade
  • Taper fade

    40 min

    A softer fade that stays longer at the neckline and sideburns. A good first fade, and an easy one to wear to work.

    Book: Taper fade
  • Drop and burst fades

    50 min

    A drop fade curves down behind the ear; a burst fans out around it. Say which one, or bring a photo.

    Book: Drop and burst fades
  • Cut for ages 12 and under

    30 min

    A booster seat, a patient barber and a parent who stays. Tell us it is a first cut and we will take our time.

    Ages 12 and under
    Book: Cut for ages 12 and under

Lineups and beards

  • Lineup and shape-up

    20 min

    Hairline, temples and neckline cut crisp with a trimmer, then cleaned up with a razor. On its own or with any cut.

    With any cut
    Book: Lineup and shape-up
  • Beard shaping

    20 min

    Cheeks and neckline set, the length evened out and the edges finished with a hot towel.

    Book: Beard shaping
  • Hair design

    30–60 min

    A part, a line or a pattern cut into the fade. Bring a photo; bigger designs are agreed before we start.

    Add-on

Prices are set by your barber's level and shown when you book.
