  • Faheem Alexander isn't known as The Fade King for nothing. The master barber travelled up from South Philly to break down 12 different fades and demonstrate a few of his methods. Consider this video your one-stop-shop to get a basic understanding of box cut fades, tapered fades, feathered fades, high top fades and quite a few more. Next time you get a haircut you'll know exactly what to ask for.

    The man said my Mentor could do it in 15m. What a beast, any man who thinks like me, always in a state of learning never always knowing is a great man indeed!

    1:12 wrong. a fade can start any hair length and go up. a taper refers to sides and/or back of the neck faded up.
