Temple fade, clean edge
Temple Fade
Where can I get a temple fade in Dubai?
At M3 Barbershop City Walk or Detail. A temple fade — also called a temp fade or Brooklyn fade — tapers only the corners at the temples and the nape, leaving the rest of your length alone.
It is the smallest fade there is, and the one that changes a face the most for the least hair removed.

What is a temple fade?
The barber tapers a narrow area at each temple and along the nape, usually squaring off the hairline at the same time. Nothing above or behind the temples is graduated. On afro-textured hair it is the classic way to keep a defined edge without cutting into the volume.
Who is a temple fade for?
Guys growing their hair out; guys with curls, coils or an afro who want definition without losing height; and anyone who wants to look freshly barbered without a visible haircut. It is also the most common “between cuts” tidy-up we do.
Is a temple fade the same as a line-up?
They usually travel together but they are different. A line-up (or edge-up) is the razor work that squares your hairline; the temple fade is the short graduation behind it. Ask for both if you want the full sharp finish, and your barber will do them in one hour.

أسئلة يطرحها الناس
Will a temple fade make my hair look shorter?
No — that is the point of it. Length stays where it is; only the corners are tapered.
How often should I get a temple fade?
Every two weeks keeps the edge crisp, and it is quick enough to combine with a beard trim inside the same hour.
Does a temple fade work on straight hair?
Yes, though it shows most clearly on textured or curly hair where the contrast between the edge and the volume is stronger.
How much is a temple fade at M3 Dubai?
Like everything at M3, you book time rather than a cut: an hour with the barber you choose, at that barber’s hourly rate.
