Men’s Haircut Spotlight: The Fade with a Side Part – Classic Meets Modern
At Elegant Barber Shop in Hollywood, Florida, one of our most requested and recommended cuts is the Fade with a Side Part. It’s clean, stylish, and works for almost every man—whether you’re heading to the office, going out on the weekend, or just want to feel sharp and fresh every day.
What Is a Fade with a Side Part?
This style combines two iconic elements:
A fade on the sides and back (low, mid, or high)
A defined side part on the top, where the hair is styled neatly to one side
It’s a blend of sharp structure and classic appeal, giving off a polished look that never goes out of style.
Why It’s a Go-To Choice for Men
Professional & Clean: Perfect for men who want to look sharp without being flashy.
Versatile: Can be worn formal with a suit or dressed down for casual outings.
Easy to Maintain: Regular trims keep the fade tight, and styling the top is simple with minimal product.
Customizable: Choose a skin fade for more contrast or a low taper fade for a subtle touch. Keep the top short or let it grow out for a fuller look.
Styling Tips from Elegant Barber Shop
To keep your Fade with Side Part looking flawless:
Start with towel-dried or slightly damp hair.
Apply a small amount of pomade, matte paste, or styling cream depending on your preferred finish.
Use a comb to define the part and sweep the top to the side.
Finish with a light mist of hairspray if you want extra hold.
Want a cleaner, sharper line? Ask your barber to do a hard part—a shaved line that defines the part even more.
Who Should Rock This Cut?
This haircut works great for:
Professionals looking for a dependable, stylish cut
Men with square, oval, or round face shapes
Guys who want low-maintenance but high-impact grooming
Anyone wanting a blend of modern edge and old-school cool

How Often Should You Get a Haircut? Barber Tips from Elegant Barber Shop
One of the most common questions we hear at Elegant Barber Shop in Hollywood, Florida is:
“How often should I get a haircut?”
Whether you’re a clean-cut professional, a style-conscious teen, or a parent bringing in your little one, keeping your haircut fresh is all about timing—and consistency.
Let’s break it down.
For Men: Every 2–4 Weeks
If you wear a fade, taper, or any clean-cut style, you should be in the barber’s chair every 2–3 weeks. These styles lose their sharpness quickly, and maintaining the look means staying ahead of the grow-out.
Classic styles (like side parts or crew cuts) can be stretched to 4 weeks, but waiting much longer will affect the shape and your overall appearance.
Pro Tip from Elegant Barber Shop:
“When your neckline gets fuzzy, sideburns grow wild, or the shape loses its edge—it’s time for a visit.”
For Boys: Every 3–5 Weeks
Kids grow fast—and so does their hair! For little boys, we recommend a haircut every 3 to 5 weeks to keep things tidy, especially if they're in school, playing sports, or taking school photos.
Some parents bring their boys in to match Dad’s haircut every few weeks, making it a fun and regular outing.
For Teens: Every 2–4 Weeks
Teen styles like textured crops, fades, curly tops, or undercuts look best when kept fresh. Most teens come in for a cut every 2–4 weeks depending on the length and how detailed the style is.
Stylish teens know: a sharp haircut boosts confidence at school, on social media, and out with friends.
Why Consistent Haircuts Matter
Keeps your look sharp and clean
Maintains the shape of your haircut
Helps with scalp health and hair growth
Prevents overgrown, unruly styles
Builds a grooming routine that’s easy to stick to
At Elegant Barber Shop, we even recommend setting a recurring appointment so you never fall behind—and your style always stays fresh.
Barber’s Note:
“Think of haircuts like tune-ups. You wouldn’t skip your car’s oil change—don’t skip your fade either. Stay fresh, stay confident.”
