Skin Fades
Fade
Moe and Co® A skin fade (aka bald fade) is a haircut technique where hair is gradually tapered down to bare skin, creating a seamless blend from long on top to no hair at the neckline or temples
Fade Heights & Styles
Low Skin Fade: Hair fades to skin just above the ears; subtle and clean
Mid Skin Fade: Fade starts around the eyebrow line—perfect balance of flair and restraint .
High Skin Fade: Bold fade beginning near the forehead, reaching high—great for angular jawlines
Drop Fade: Fade curves downward behind the ear, following head shape for a natural contour
Burst Fade: Circular fade around the ear—ideal for mohawks and edgy looks
Taper-Fade: Keeps a bit of hair at neckline while fading skin at temples—sharp but classic
