Get the Perfect Fade

A great fade isn't just a haircut — it's a skill that takes real time and experience to master properly, and at Ultimate Barber in Maryborough, it's something we genuinely pride ourselves on delivering well with every single client visit.


Whether you're after a clean skin fade that goes right down to the scalp, a taper fade that blends gradually and naturally into the neckline, a high fade that sits bold and sharp above the ears, or a low fade for something more subtle and refined, we've got the experience to deliver exactly what you're after.


Every fade is carefully tailored to your head shape, hair type and personal style, so you'll never walk out with a cookie-cutter result you're not completely happy with. Walk-ins welcome, or call 0493 026 065.

What Our Clients Say

We Offer Every Variation 

Skin Fade


A skin fade is one of the sharpest looks you can get from a barber. The hair is gradually cut all the way down to the skin, creating a clean, high-contrast finish that works with almost any style on top. Bold, precise and always turning heads for the right reasons.


Taper Fade


A taper fade is the go-to for anyone after a clean, versatile look that works in any setting. The hair blends gradually into the neckline without going all the way to the skin, giving you a polished and natural finish that suits both casual and more formal environments with ease.


High Fade


A high fade starts the blend up above the temples, making it one of the most striking styles you can go for. It creates strong contrast between the sides and the top, making it a perfect choice for those who want something bold, modern, confident and very easy to maintain.


Low Fade


A low fade keeps the blend sitting just above the ear, making it one of the most subtle and versatile options you can choose. It's understated without ever being boring, and pairs well with almost any length or style on top — a great starting point for first-time fade clients.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between a skin fade and a taper fade?

    A skin fade is cut right down to the skin, creating a sharp, high-contrast look between the hair and scalp. A taper fade is a more gradual blend that softens the hairline rather than removing it completely. Tapers tend to look more natural and low-maintenance, while skin fades are bolder and more defined.

  • How often should I get a fade touched up?

    Most fades start losing their sharpness after two to four weeks. Skin fades and high fades generally need a touch-up every two to three weeks, while low fades and tapers can stretch to three or four weeks before they start looking overgrown.

  • Will a fade work with my hair type?

    Yes, fades work across all hair types. A good barber will adjust clipper settings and blending technique to suit your texture and thickness, whether your hair is straight, wavy, curly or coily.
