What is taper vs. Fade?

Answer:

A taper is when your hair gradually changes from one length to another.

A fade is shorter than a taper and ends when it reaches the skin — essentially “fading” in.

Tapers and fades can be achieved with shears, or with clippers that have guards set to various lengths. Either way, watching a masterful barber artfully craft a taper or fade is a mesmerizing process to behold.
