Mid fade, full control
Mid Fade
Where can I get a mid fade in Dubai?
At M3 Barbershop City Walk or Detail. A mid fade starts around the temple — halfway between a low and a high fade — giving clear contrast with the top without shaving the sides high up the head.
If you have ever looked at a photo and thought “that, but not so extreme”, the mid fade is usually the answer you were reaching for.

Books mid fade by the hour at M3. You pick the barber, the hour is yours, and the cut is shaped to you in it.
Where does a mid fade start?
Roughly at the temple, level with the corner of the eyebrow, curving around the head at that height. Above it the hair keeps its cut length; below it the graduation runs down to a short finish or to skin, depending on what you ask for. It is the most requested fade height at M3 because it flatters without committing you to a strong look.
What does a mid fade go with?
Almost anything with texture on top: a textured crop, a quiff, curls, a messy French crop. The contrast at the temple frames the face and makes whatever is happening on top read clearly, which is why photographers and stylists tend to ask for it.
How do I hold the shape between visits?
Wash and dry the hair away from the face, and keep product light so the top does not collapse into the faded area. A mid fade looks intentional for about three weeks; after that the contrast softens and the cut starts to read as a taper.

Questions people ask
Is a mid fade the same as a medium fade?
Yes — the two names describe the same height. Ask for either and your barber will place the line at the temple.
Can a mid fade be done with scissors on top?
That is the standard at M3: clippers set the fade, scissors shape the top. Book an hour so there is time to do both properly.
Does a mid fade suit a round face?
It helps — the contrast at the temple adds vertical line. Your barber will adjust the height and the weight on top to suit your face, which is exactly the conversation the first ten minutes of your hour is for.
How much is a mid fade at M3 Dubai?
You book by the hour with a named barber and pay that barber’s rate for the time reserved. Nothing is priced per cut.
