Men’s Haircut Tips: Ask Your London Barber for This
Simple questions that get you a better cut — length on top, fade height, and product — from a North London studio.
Walking into a barbershop without a plan is fine — but a few clear notes help your barber nail the cut first time. Here’s what we ask clients at Palace Grooming Room.
Three things to mention
Length on top — fingers, centimetres, or a photo
Sides — skin fade, mid fade, taper, or scissor-only
Lifestyle — gym, office, low-maintenance grow-out
Photos help more than buzzwords
“Like a celebrity cut” can mean different things. A clear photo of the shape you want — plus honesty about your hair type — gets a better result than jargon alone.
