I had a great experience. Will took excellent care of me. It was my first time and I will definitely be a repeat customer.
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.
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 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…
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…
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…
The best around, always does a phenomenal job!
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…
Clean shop, friendly staff, and one of the best haircuts . Attention to detail was amazing definitely recommend
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…
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!
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 does a great job, I’ve been going to him for about 3-4 years and won’t go anywhere else!
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…
Best place around with a great professional group of barbers. 10/10 recommend!!!
Very professional. Knows exactly what I want. My beard trim looks the same every time. Highly recommend.
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!
Best barber shop in the area
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.
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…
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!
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…
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!!!!!
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…
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.
The best!!!!
