Is it rude not to tip your barber?
Generally speaking, for good service, you should tip 15 to 20 percent of the entire bill. Tip more for exceptional service or less for what you consider to be inadequate service. Tipping is your way of saying “job well done,” so tip more if the person performing the service has gone above and beyond what is expected.
What does tapered hair look like?
A taper is when your hair gradually changes from long to short from the top of your head down to your hairline. A taper only appears in two areas—your sideburns and your neckline. A fade appears all the way around your head, ends above your natural hairline, and gradually ‘fades’ into your skin.
What is a fade haircut look like?
A taper fade haircut keeps the hair long on top while tapering it down the sides and back. The hair gets progressively shorter as it goes down the head until it blends in with the skin. This gradual fade looks sharp and neat, with no messy or unsightly edges or rough spots.

How long does a fade haircut last?
“Tight fade haircuts need to be maintained every two to three weeks. For a more classic haircut we’d say every four to six weeks. But people do like to keep it tight, just ’cause it goes away. It just all starts to blend in, so you don’t see the difference in the hair lengths anymore.”
