So what's the key to nailing the perfect fade? Head over to the Dover Chop shop and you are more are closer than you know. This new shop doesn't need to give out proprietary fade-sculpting tricks, saying only, "We look to make that transition from light to dark as smooth as possible." All that really matters, anyway, is that you know how to ask for it. If you like a dramatic look, request a tight fade, which means almost no hair on the sides. A dark fade, meanwhile, will give you a more conservative transition to haircut cool and a low ball fade will give you more hair on the top to comb and bald means you will get skinned over the ears and on your neck. It's a classic shop that is nothing like it's name. These hair cuts are far from "chopped."
