I have been using fade 48 for about a year now and they have been great and consistent since day 1. Being mixed I have unique hair that I have had messed up a time or two but inexperienced barbers but Ezel has never done me wrong. His fades are clean and his line ups are crisp. There's also something great about a…
I had a great experience. Will took excellent care of me. It was my first time and I will definitely be a repeat customer.
Would trust these guys with my life. Best barbers in town. No questions asked.
My go to shop when I lived in the midwest! They all get down but I’d always get cut by Kareem, he always had me looking right!
Kay is a master of his craft. His talent and attention to detail are truly unmatched. After years of searching for the right barbershop, I won't go anywhere else. Highly recommend Kay Farah!
I'm a salon owner myself and I would highly recommend these guys. They were absolutely amazing and worked well with my son. We definitely will be back!
Highest skilled barbers around the area, have been going for 9+ years and always keep it professional.
Will always getting me right. I don’t normally like other people cutting my hair but he always proves me wrong. Plus the suckers at the end are lit
They get me right every time! Love this place!!
Bilal and his cutting crew are very friendly and inviting putting me at instant ease. The fact that all chairs were full also shows many others approve highly of the services. I have had the "Full Monty" treatment twice now and have left feeling very happy with both cuts. Hats off to Bilal for doing so much with so little, in my particular case.
Every barber is very accommodating, and welcoming either new or returning customer.
Bilal is great! He does great work. I always get the works package. I need to look professional for work. He always does it up right. 5-star service. 100% recommend.
Since 2015 BILAL has done an amazing job getting me too look my best for every occasion I have had, from weddings, promotions to date night. I’ve never NOT been satisfied with his services.
I highly recommend Fade 48, both of my boys (Ages 16 & 10) have been going to Bilal for almost a decade! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fade 48 is hands down the best barbershop around. My kids have been coming here, and every visit has been a great experience. The barbers are talented, take their time, and consistently deliver clean,…
Just moved back here from Miami, bilal gave me exactly what I wanted
Extremely professional and consistent barbershop! Definitely recommend Will Hamid! Super consistent and professional all the time and provides a comfortable experience. Asked for recommendations for a new hair style and he provided extensive feedback and recommendations.
Will does and has always done an amazing job. Very polite and professional. I recommend him to people all the time. Not one issue any time I’ve ever been. Shop is full of nice guys that are great at what they do!
This place is the real deal ….no other shop comes close …very professional and kind service …I can’t recommend them enough…Bilal is usually my stylist….the best hands down…..need a good cut?….book that appointment now
Nothing else needs to be said other then they are the best barber shop in Illinois period. Perfect fades & perfect lining. You want your hair done right then this is the place to go too.
Can’t recommend Bilal enough, I’ve been going to him for over a year and the cut is perfect every single time. He’s never let me down!
I had my first visit to Fade48 today and man I am hooked! Will was the absolute best. He listened to everything I asked for and had a lot of great suggestions for me as well. He was meticulous and you could just tell he takes his work very seriously. My haircut was crisp and clean! The environment was very…
Bilal was a privileged to have as my barber, he did a fantastic job! I’ve only gone 1 time but from that experience, I learned everyone at Fade 48 genuinely cared!
Moved to the area not too long ago and had the nervous task of finding a barber, I feel like I hit gold booking with Bilal at Fade48. I always leave the shop looking my best because of him, would definitely recommend.
The entire Faded48 crew has done nothing but exceed expectations! I’ve been getting cut by Bilal since 2019 and have never had a bad experience. Bilal takes the time to know his clients and his skills are evident! 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking for a solid cut and experience.
I have been goin here since I was 10 years old, and I am now 21 years old. I can say one thing about Bilal and his work ethic and how he carries himself and his business, excellent. Seeing fade 48 grow from just bilal to what it is now is truly incredible. Will always be my go to for my haircuts and who I refer everyone too!
Great barber shop, booked an appointment with will. Great guy, takes his time. Definitely recommend
Best barber hands down
These guys are truly great at what they do! I’ve been going to Bilal for years and will continue to do so. The whole vibe at Fade48 is chill and you know you’ll leave with a fresh haircut. There’s a reason I make an appointment anytime I’m back in town.
The atmosphere was very professional and the quality of the service was too. Will, really knows how to get you right and I plan to comeback soon!
Will is hands down one of the best barbers I’ve been to. Every cut is clean, detailed, and exactly how I ask for it, no shortcuts, no inconsistencies. He takes his time to make sure everything is precise, from the fade to the lineup, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his work. The professionalism and…
If you’re looking for a barber who truly knows what he’s doing, I can’t recommend Will Hamid enough. Every time I sit in his chair, I leave feeling like the best version of myself. His attention to detail is unmatched—clean fades, sharp lines, and he really takes the time to understand exactly what you want. What…
Will is one of the most consistent and professional barbers I’ve been to. Every cut is clean, sharp, and exactly how I ask for it. He pays serious attention to detail and takes his time to make sure everything is perfect before you leave the chair. What really stands out is how precise and reliable he is, you know…
Bilal is the best barber around. I’ve been to barbers in the city and all around the metro east area and he’s got them beat. Top notch skill set. Efficient, professional and listens. Barber for life.
Hands down....the best haircut ive ever gotten. With any of them in the shop, you are getting what you pay for, and that is quality work. I have been seeing Bilal for a several years. With a couple year hiatus because I grew my hair into a mullet. I came back to Bilal to go back to a skin fade. NO ONE can touch…
First off this was my first visit here and it was absolutely amazing. I would recommend Bilal to my friends as he does an amazing job when it comes to cutting hair. He was extraordinarily thorough and did not rush through the cut. I look forward to returning back soon for a second visit!
After moving to the area and suffering from mediocre to downright horrible haircuts for the last 8 months, so elated to have finally found my new barber shop. Place is clean, and the barbers are legit artists with clippers.
Bilal does a fantastic job! Top tier fade, highly recommend.
The best around, always does a phenomenal job!
Her cuts always amazing. Also the eyebrow and haircut is always good despite me having ab eyebrow piercing.Have recommended several friends to him.
This was my 13-year-old son’s first experience at a barbershop. Will made him feel comfortable and gave him the best haircut he’s ever had. The attention to detail and precision is incredible.
Great haircut. Ezél really listens to what you ask for and pays attention to detail!
If you appreciate a good relationship wih your stylist, someone that takes the time to listen to what you want, then the fine gentlemen at Fade48 is where you should go, period!
Glove was very thorough, absolute beast! I came in got seen right away he did everything I asked and then some! Highly recommend anyone looking for a high quality hair cut for a decent price. This man was a pro and 100 percent deserves your business. Much love
Bilal and the entire team at Fade48 cut hair at the highest level there is. Been taking myself and son to get haircuts here for years and going somewhere else is not an option. Best Barbershop around and it’s not close!
Bilal is one of the few barbers I’ve had to privilege to meet that really takes their craft seriously. With his humility & integrity lets his work speak for itself. You won’t come across too many barbers in the metro east that offer big “city” quality services such as Bilal, where in market & the lifestyle in…
Been going to Kareem for a bit over three years now. I’ve gotten haircuts from a few different barbers in the area and none were as solid than with Fade48. Definitely recommend!
Bilal always hooks me up with a fresh look! I appreciate that he doesn't try to up sell me on products. The shop is super chill too
It was great they were really nice and welcoming and i love my haircut.
Always a perfect cut and beard trim and you don't have to worry about which barber you get they are all extremely talented.....thanks gentlemen!!!
Been going to Fade 48 and Blial for about two years. He always does a great job, it’s hard to find someone who can do a fade the right way. All the other barbers are friendly and it’s a great environment. Highly recommend but always make an appt they are super busy because they do great work!
Bilal and everyone at Fade48 is amazing. I’ve been with him since 2017 after inconsistent cuts from other barbers in the area. My son has been going here since he was born. I always have great conversations and they very respectful. Bilal is my guy but when he’s not available, I don’t mind getting a cut from anyone…
My first appointment was with Kay Farah, I told him that was my first time in a “real” barber shop. His response was “Let’s change your life today”. That was 3 years ago and I refuse to go anywhere else. I get the Full service (haircut and beard) and his attention to detail is TOP notch! The whole Fade 48 crew is…
Been going to Bilal for 5 years now and every single cut I’ve gotten has always been perfect. It’s a stress relief to have a great barber that you can count on giving you a great cut every time. Once you go to Bilal once you will never go anywhere else.
By far the best barbershop I have been to, Kareem is fantastic and always gets me right!
Great fades! Very professional! Bilal is very good at what he does! Highly recommend
I've been coming here for almost a year now and definitely one of the best barber shops in the area. Everyone is very friendly and Bilal is the barber I go to. He is very professional and knows how to cut hair. Definitely recommend!
Started going here when they first opened up. B and Kareem have always treated anyone who walks through their door as one of their own! I currently get my hair cut by Kareem and he always exceeds my expectations when he cuts my hair. I would highly recommend him and anyone within 48. If anyone ever asks me where…
Outstanding atmosphere and service. I started going to this barber to see Kareem a year ago when I arrived and won't go to another spot while im here.
Kareem is a 5 star barber! He takes his time to make sure every cut comes out perfect, and his attention to detail is unmatched. I always leave feeling confident!
I’ve gotten my haircut from Kareem for close to 5 years, always does a clean and professional job. Great environment of guys running this shop too, highly recommend
Bilal always gets it right! I travel an hour and a half to get a haircut, because nobody cuts my hair and cleans me up like they do at Fade 48. Not too many out there still do a close cut with a straight razor. If you are looking for a clean fade…this is your place!
Bilal is hands down the best barber I've ever had! He is precise, skilled, and very personable. I'd recommend Bilal if you are looking for a high quality cut.
🔥💈
Excellent fade haircut. Outstanding customer service. Definitely will be a coming back.
Amazing work, incredible staff, and always professional. Never had a better barber experience anywhere else around.
The older I get the more I appreciate those that have mastered their craft. After sitting in Kay’s chair dozens of times now over the last year and a half, I can say with confidence that he and his fellow barbers at the shop have done just that. There’s a level of professionalism and warmth with every single…
I’ve been going to Balil and Fade48 for years and don’t plan on going anywhere else. I have never left disappointed in the any service I received. The cut is always the best in the area!
Ezel was amazing! Super nice, professional, and really knows his craft. He made the whole experience easy and enjoyable definitely a five-star barber. Highly recommend!
10/100 I moved here from Detroit mi been getting cuts from barbers everywhere and I haven’t got someone that gets exactly what I’m looking for but This shop feels good when you go in everybody super friendly kind have a sense of humor and most importantly they will get you right is my first time at this shop and they won’t be my last
If you’re seeking an experienced, professional barber in the Metro East, I highly recommend booking Kareem at Fade48 in O’Fallon, IL. My sons and I have been regular clients for nearly two years, and we consistently leave with sharp, clean haircuts. Kareem’s expertise and reliability truly make this barbershop the…
Best barbershop I’ve ever been to. They’ve been cutting my hair for nearly 10 years and have never disappointed. I highly recommend.
Been coming here for a minute and they don't miss. Hands down the best in the area, fades be A1, only spot I trust with my cut. They stay booked for a reason. The late hours make it easy to fit an appointment in after work. If you care about your appearance and want a spot that delivers perfection 👌 every single…
Best barbershop in town. I've been getting my haircut here for years now and I can't recommend it enough. From the quality precision cuts and great atmosphere, there is no better place to be if you want a great haircut!
Fade48 is hands down the best barbershop in O’Fallon. The shop is clean, modern, and has a great atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable as soon as you walk in. Bilal, the owner, is amazing. He really listens to what you want and always nails the look, whether it’s a clean fade, a sharp lineup, or the…
These guys are fantastic every time. Kareem and Kay handle my sons and I, and it's always perfect. They remember how you like your style, they're great with kids, the whole atmosphere is just great.
Kay Farrah has been our barber since 2020 (5 years). He cuts both my husband (active duty Air Force and now retired with a full beard) and our son's hair (age 10). Kay is always friendly, professional and literally the best haircuts we've ever experienced. Go give him a try! Book in the Booksy app.
When I moved here I was down bad for a barber, my co-worker put me on to Fade48. Bilal has been cutting my hair since. He does a great job, the shop has a great team with good vibes. I recommend this business to anyone looking for a good cut.
Kareem does an amazing job. Went in two years ago not knowing what to expect and have been going every four weeks since. Check these guys out you won’t be disappointed.
If you are looking for a quality hair cut, you know the good ones where you wake up in the morning and your hair is already good good to go, well this is the place. Not a 12 minute speed session where your hair gets weed whacked. Kareem (who had been cutting my hair for 3+years) understands that his hair cuts are…
My family loves coming here for cuts. We even bring our 6 year old son. My husband has been coming here for years and any time our college aged boys are in town, they come here too.
Great shop with a clean vibe and skilled barbers. They really pay attention to detail and make sure you leave looking sharp. Friendly service, good prices, and a comfortable atmosphere – highly recommend ezel!
I've been getting my haircut by Bilal and every time I make an appointment he always remembers what I want and it turns out great. Fade48 is definitely recommended.
Clean shop, friendly staff, and one of the best haircuts . Attention to detail was amazing definitely recommend
Always go here for a fresh fade from Kareem. These guys got my 3 year old to stop hating haircuts, too. Good peeps
Been a return customer for just over a year, I won’t go to anyone else. These guys will take care of you and work with you every time.
I've been coming to Fade48 for almost a decade, and there's a reason I keep coming back. Bilal, Kareem, and Kay Farah are all solid at what they do and truly care about making sure you leave looking your best. They take their time, pay attention to the details, and always deliver a fresh cut. The atmosphere is…
Kareem always does me right. Great atmosphere and very quick with the cuts but the quality is always Top tier
I’ve been coming to Fade 48 for years. Bilal always delivers a precise, clean cut with great attention to detail. The shop is clean, the atmosphere is relaxed, and booking is easy. I always leave feeling sharp. Highly recommended.
Best barbers in town!! I’ve been going to Bilal since ~2017 and haven’t had a bad experience since. Great customer service and atmosphere as well.
I’ve been coming to Fade 48 every week for the past 8 years, and it truly feels like family. The atmosphere is welcoming, the conversations are always genuine and enjoyable, and you can tell everyone here cares about their clients. My barber, Kareem, has been taking care of me from day one and consistently gives me…
Been going here for the past couple years FOR A REASON! My guy Kay Farah gets me right every time i need a cut. Just book a couple weeks in advance cuz they’re always busy
I’ve been going to Kareem for about 3 years now. Every cut I’ve had has been fantastic. I’m particular about my hair and he does a great job fading me up!
I've been getting my hair cut here for years and have always had an excellent experience. Bilal offers a great service and I have sent many referrals to them. Highly reccommend!
Bilal does my hair and beard every 3 weeks. He does such a great job. Everything looks so clean I will continue to get my hair and beard done. I recommend anyone to go and check them out.
Always cuts my husbands hair so good!
I’m real particular about who cuts my hair and always have been. I had used the same barber for years and years before I got married but once I did get married, I ended up moving over 2 and a half hours away from home to the ofallon area. Once here I started looking for barbers or anyone that could do what I needed…
Great barber, booking always on time, Great shop. J,Cooper
Kareem always does exceptional work! Thank you again. 5/5 recommend that you go to him for your next appointment! You can book any of the 3, they all do excellent work!
Great local spot to get your hair done right. Bilal, will take care of you, they are kind, friendly, and most of very respectful to make sure you get the cut you want. Won't disappoint. Book in advance, they get that busy, being that good.
Bilal is hands down one of the best barbers I’ve ever been to. His cuts are always sharp, clean, and perfectly detailed. I've been going to B for 7+ years and have never had a single complaint!! B will have you in his chair on appointment time and out in under an hour. You will walk out with a clean fade, hair…
Fade48 is top-tier, and Bilal is a true master of his craft. He gave me one of the cleanest fades I’ve ever had – sharp, precise, and perfectly styled. You can tell he takes real pride in his work and doesn’t miss a detail. The shop has a great vibe too. If you want a barber who consistently delivers great results,…
Bilal does a great job, I’ve been going to him for about 3-4 years and won’t go anywhere else!
I moved to the area a year ago and it’s always a process finding a good barber. Fortunate to find Fade48! Always a fresh fade. Consistency and efficient. Bilal always hooks it up and provides great service!
it was very professional precise and fast and i enjoyed the environment
Kareem is an excellent barber! He pays close attention to detail, gives clean fades, and always makes sure you leave with the exact cut you want. I highly recommend him and the barbershop overall!
Kareem gives me a great haircut every time!
I've been going to Kay and the gentlemen at Fade48 for four years now. They are welcoming and professional and have given me a phenomenal cut each and every time. I highly recommend this shop.
Kareem does a great and very consistent job! That can be hard to find especially if you have to move a lot. I’ve found my barber while I live in this area!
This place is great , the guys are cool, and the skills are outstanding. Couldn’t recommend them more.
The guys are Fade48 are amazing. They are very welcoming and friendly. When it comes to haircuts, you will have a hard time finding more skilled barbers than these guys any where in the Metro East and St. Louis. Bilal is my go too. His skills are top notch. I recently changed my hairstyle to what he recommended when…
I've been going here for about 6 or 7 years now, never disappointed, great service and easy to book online. Hours are great for someone like me who works nights as well.
I’ve been getting a cut with Kareem for a while now since I moved in the area. He has always been very professional and I have been satisfied with the cuts I’ve been getting with him, whether it be complicated or simple cuts.
Fade 48 is the best place in town, hands down. I've been to a bunch before finding it. Kareem always does an amazing job.
I’ve been coming here along with my boys for the last 7 years. Had no issues with any of the barbers there. Great environment, and they all pay close attention to detail. I see a few select reviews that seem to stem from a lack of communication from the customer. I recommend giving this place a try if you haven’t before. Best barber shop I’ve been to.
Needed a new barber shop and walked into Fade48 without knowing they were by appointment only. They were kind enough to still get me in that night. Not only did they show me kindness by making room, Kay also got me right. I’ve never had more compliments on a haircut before. Haven’t been to anyone else since. He even…
Been going to Kay for a while now. Never fails to give a great haircut. Listens to the customer while also giving recommendations from his years of experience. 10/10 recommend.
My son and I both get our haircuts here and have seen all three barbers—each one does an excellent job! Friendly, professional, and always a great experience.
The best hair cuts ever. Definitely the best haircuts around.
Fade48 is truly amazing and never fails to deliver quality cuts at affordable prices. My favorite barber is Kareem but Kay and Bilal are also amazing barbers. They added a new barber recently to their team, Ezél, so there are more available slots now. Go check them out and you won’t be disappointed.
Best place around with a great professional group of barbers. 10/10 recommend!!!
Bilal has been my barber for the past 4 years, always the best when it comes to attention to detail - him and his crew are very welcoming and are hands down the best barbers around the area!
I’ve been going to Fade48 for about 5 years now, and I can honestly say it’s the best barbershop I’ve ever been to. The barbers are consistent, professional, and always make sure you leave looking sharp. They really take their time with every cut, and you can tell they care about the details. The shop itself has a…
I’ve been coming here for about 3 years and I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else. Kareem always does a great job, really listens to what I want, and gets it right every time. Super detail-oriented and consistent with his work. Plus, he’s a genuinely nice guy and makes the whole experience easy and comfortable. Highly recommend!
Kareem is a great barber! Never disappoints!
I’ve been going here 8 years, never a bad cut. If one barber is booked up you can trust everyone in there for a fresh fade!
Best barber shop in the area
I've been taking my son to Kareem since he was about 7 (he's 14 now). Even though we've moved to St. Louis, we still cross the river to have Kareem cut his hair. He's kind, courteous, and a master of his craft.
I have been going to Fade48 for over 5yrs!! Kareem is hands down a VERY GOOD barber!! He can cut all types of hair, I myself have curly hair and NEVER have I left his chair unhappy with my results and I mean NEVER. The atmosphere is top notch, the attention to detail is unmatched when compared to other barbershops…
Can’t go wrong with any of the barbers here. Great hair cuts and beard trims! Got my dad, some co worker’s and friends that all go here and are very happy!
Bilal and the crew at fade 48 do some of the best work around. Hairstylist ask who cuts my hair because it’s so clean. I have sent a number of friends that way and wouldn’t hesitate to continue.
Always amazing experience. Does an awesome job I have a four week standing appointment.
Kareem is the best! Super good person and a great barber!
This place is the absolute best. Very professional and courteous and the vibe inside is awesome. Highly recommend, I’ve been getting my hair and beard done by Kareem for over a year now. It is very important to me to have consistency when it comes to a barber, and I’m always able to book with the same barber to get…
Lived all over the country. This is by far the absolute best barbershop I have ever been too. The attention to detail, pride and professionalism is next level. Highly recommend all the barbers are Fade48. Balil has been cutting my hair for close to 8 years. I have family members that visit from other states and ask…
been going to fade48 for almost 3 years now and it's been a positive experience every single time. nice environment where all the barbers make you feel relaxed and comfortable. kareem is my go to barber but each barber does equally amazing work. can't go wrong with coming here
Have been going here for over 3 years and they do an incredible job. I use Kareem typically, but have had my haircut by all of them is he’s out and it never fails. Incredible place!
Fade 48 is the best spot hands down. I live 45 minutes away and still make that drive every time I need a cut. The guys there know what they’re doing, run a nice respectful shop, and deliver every single time! 10/10 recommend
I have been going to this barbershop (Fade 48) for 8 years now. Bilal is the best barber in this area period! All the barber staff are great! I have never seen anyone leave there dissatified!
Bilal does a killer job. I don’t even have to look in the mirror before I pay. Never had a bad cut in all the years I have been going to fade48
Was recommended to get a haircut by Bilal and I haven’t been let down since.
I've been coming here for years and its by far the best barber shop around. Everyone is very friendly and they all make sure to do a good job. Highly recommend!
Ive been getting my hair cut with Bilal at Fade48 for almost 8 years. The whole crew treats you as family. He not only cuts my hair, but threads my eyebrows, shaves my face and waxes my nose and ears. Keeps me looking fresh and clean. Very Best in Town Hands Down! Thank You Fade48!
Best barbers around!
The BEST barber shop around by far. Many barber shops are good. Few are great. Fade 48 falls into the upper echelon without a doubt. Online booking, punctuality, family-friendly environment, and outstanding cuts are what makes Fade 48 a 5-star business. I can not tell you how many times I’ve gone to a barber for a…
Best of the best! Been coming here for 10 years never disappoint
Been coming here for 6 years and have never had a bad experience! Welcoming atmosphere and Kay Farah has been one of the best when it comes to cutting hair!
I’ve been going to 48 Fades in O’Fallon, IL for about 2 years now, and I can confidently say the service is top-notch every single time. Bilah is my go-to barber, and his attention to detail is unmatched. He always takes his time to make sure the cut is perfect, and you can tell he truly cares about his clients. The…
The best in the area by far!!!!!
Best barbershop in town. They get me and my son right every time.
Asked him to lightly trim up the top but keep the top just lightly clean up, and what does he do? He shaves it all off. I knew my gut was right to not try another barber but this is just disrespectful. If you’re a man of color don’t come here, the reviews are not what they seem. SPECIFICALLY, be mindful of going to…
They did a good job. Nice establishment & friendly employees.
I’ve never been more impressed with a haircut than I have when Kay Farah takes care of me. I feel more confident! No more hat! Just straight up style! I definitely recommend them, awesome expertise, great products, knowledge and more! When it comes to price, I am not one to bat an eye when quality is what I…
I had an awesome experience at Fade48! Kay gave me one of the best haircuts I’ve ever had—sharp, precise, and exactly what I was looking for. He was super friendly, professional, and clearly skilled at his craft. The shop itself was clean and had a great atmosphere. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a top-tier cut in a welcoming environment!
Best place in town to get a fade. Very knowledgeable and friendly barbers. Highly recommend.
This is NOT up for debate. The best place to get a good cut in the Metro East. Book 2 weeks ahead or else you could be waiting a while. Very great with kids and a very positive environment for all cultures and please be respectful when you go.
Coming from San Francisco, we've had a hard time finding a barber . I walked in with my son and Bilal said if we come back at 4 pm , he can cut his hair . We came at 4 pm and he truly exceeded my expectations. He did an awesome job and we are so happy , we've found an awesome barber here in the Midwest. The…
Great haircut, highly skilled and amazing service!
Great Service. Awesome haircut. Thanks Kay.
Kay Farrah is discriminatory and I would NOT recommend that he cuts your hair.. This place doesNOT deserve to be in business in this area.
Kay is a hair surgeon. It’s always precise and accurate. He never misses on a cut! Also easy to talk to and not on his phone
I’ve been a customer for years and you can’t go wrong here. Kay has been a stud for as long as I can remember and the only place I trust to cut my hair.
definitely my go to barbershop. everyone there is a people person and show that they care about the people that come in. clean shop, gets the job done fast. all in all great service
All very friendly. Clean shop, even cleaner fades! Have recommended multiple friends here, and all have walked out happy and have came back again. 10/10 recommend!
Friendly guys, professional hairstylists, I recommend it to everyone.
Every barber here is nothing less than a perfectionist. 5 star service every time.
They hook it tf up
Kareem is the absolute best!
Always good hair cuts I’ve been coming here since 7th grade I’m now a Junior to put that into perspective. I had a student barber last night and to say Im impressed with my haircut is an understatement. I don’t want to bury her the name tough or tause but he did great. Highly recommend and if y’all know how to spell it please correct me
First time in here and right away I knew they were going to fix my jacked up haircut. The clients before me had fresh fades, so I knew I was in the right place. Kay Farah looked over the massacre that was laying on my head and went to work fixing it, as well as, explaining what needed to be done to get me right. Overall, 10/10 and I can’t wait to be back!
Easily the best barber shop in town. My son and I get an incredible fade from Kareem and Kay
Kay Farrah cuts my sons hair every 2 weeks. I make sure took book out a month with how busy all the barbers get. They are all very skilled and thorough about their services. My son won't get his haircut anywhere else anymore. These guys are friendly, polite and want your input to make sure they give the customer…
Best barber shop I’ve been to. They make you feel welcomed and treat you like family. Professional and personal, they listen to your wants and needs. I trust these guys and would recommend them to anyone looking to make a switch to a new barber. Thank you guys for everything you do!
The best!!!!
I had never been to an actual barber before in my life, I’m from a small town in MS and have only used sports clips at best and let me tell ya. I’ll never go back. They told me they were gonna change my life and they truly did. Never been so confident in my hair before! Booking my next appointment now!
Bilal gave the worst haircut. For a person whose been cutting hair since he was a kid he didnt realize not to cut into my calick. Nor communicate if he were to cut it would leave a bald spot. I know guys who cut hair for $20 will out cut him and communicate my needs. Im very disappointed.... unfortunnatley i will not be back
Good conversations, professional staff, clean and comfortable environment, and reasonable price for the quality of service! I'll be going back.
Sports clips screwed my hair up big time! These guys snuck me in to fix my cut. Great guys, will definitely be back.
My sons have been going to Kareem for a long time now. Quality service is exactly what you'll receive at fade48. I've taken my sons to soo many salons and there was never consistent quality work. With Kareem its perfect every time!!!!
