Get answers to common questions about Undercut.

Most clients return every two to four weeks for maintenance, depending on hair growth and desired sharpness. For very short undercuts schedule about three weeks; for slightly longer fades you can wait up to four weeks to preserve contrast.

No—the undercut service uses clippers only on the shorter sides and back, leaving the longer top untouched. Proper technique prevents damage; our barbers blend and protect the contrast while advising on care to keep the top healthy and styled.

We can both reshape and maintain existing undercuts. For reshaping we carefully adjust lengths and edges with clippers to refine the silhouette without disturbing the longer hair. Book a consultation so we can assess your current cut and recommend the best approach.

Typically appointments take 15 to 30 minutes depending on complexity and whether blending or detailing is needed. Simple clipper touch-ups are fast; precise fades or added edge work require more time. We confirm exact timing when you book.

Clean, dry hair is ideal; wash and towel-dry before arrival so clippers can create precise lines. If you can't wash beforehand, we’ll still perform the service, but freshly washed hair helps our barbers deliver the cleanest possible cut.

Lightweight pomades, matte pastes, or sea salt sprays work well depending on texture and finish. Use a small amount on the longer top for hold and texture; keep sides dry and brush regularly. Ask your barber for product suggestions matched to your hair.
