The menu

What we cut, and how long it takes

Every service has a time. Your barber's prices show when you book.

Fades

  • Skin fade

    45–60 min

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

    Consultation first
    Book: Skin fade
  • Taper fade

    40 min

    Short at the neckline and ears, longer as it climbs. A gentler fade that grows out slowly and works on a job site or in an office.

    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, or bring a photo.

    Book: Drop and burst fades
  • Wave upkeep

    35 min

    A cut that keeps the wave pattern clean, a brush-out and a shape-up. Tell us how you brush and cover your hair.

Edges and extras

  • Lineup and shape-up

    20 min

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

Before your first visit

Do I need an appointment?

No. Tuesday to Saturday you can walk in and sign the board. Book if you want Travon or Oziel at a set time.

How long does a cut take?

A fade is 40 to 60 minutes, a lineup about 20 and a kid's cut about 30. Every service on the menu shows its time.

Can you cut my hair?

Waves, coils, curls, twists and straight hair. Tell your barber how you wear it.

Do you cut teens and kids?

Yes. Cuts for ages 12 and under are booked as kids' cuts, and a parent stays in the shop.

What should I bring?

A photo of the cut you want. It is the quickest way to get on the same page.

How does tipping work?

Tips go to the barber who cut your hair, in cash at the chair or on the card machine.
