Full beard, shaped and trimmed right.
Fade and beard, blended clean all the way around.
Sharp edges around the ear, blended into a full beard.
Low taper fade with a textured, hand-styled top. Not the kind of thing a chain place takes time for.
Straight razor clean-up along the hairline, mid-service.

Skin fade with a sharp line in the back. That's where a good fade gets judged.
Hot lather and a straight razor. No cartridge blades.
Fresh out of the chair.
