This is how professional barbers execute a clean, high skin fade efficiently on the shop floor without guesswork, rushed blending, or constant re-cutting.

In this tutorial, you’ll see the full process behind a high skin fade, from initial assessment and sectioning through to guard selection, lever control, zero line removal, and refinement.

Every decision is explained so you understand why each step works, not just what to do.

You’ll learn how to:
• Read hairlines, growth patterns, and crown direction
• Choose the right sectioning and zone pattern
• Build shape with scissor work before fading
• Set clean fade guidelines that blend easily
• Control colour spread and remove lines cleanly
• Refine the fade for balance and long-term grow-out

This approach is designed for real barbers in real barbershops who want consistent results, better fades, and a more efficient workflow behind the chair.

If you’re serious about improving your fades and cutting with confidence instead of guessing, this video will upgrade how you see and execute a high skin fade.
