A taper fade is perfect if you want a clean look without going full skin fade. The height (low/mid/high) changes the face frame: low feels classic, mid feels modern, high feels bold. The quality comes from how the fade sits around the ear and temple—blended, smooth, and natural, not “striped.”
Upkeep depends on how sharp you like it: crisp edges need more frequent refresh, softer looks can last longer. At The Fresh Head Factory, Green Lanes, London N13 5PA, Aliye Aybuke Özdemir positions the taper to suit your face shape so it stays fresh from every angle.
