A good barber visit is easier when both sides understand the haircut. For expats, students and visitors in Krakow, clear English consultation saves time and prevents surprises.
Bring one good reference photo
A reference photo helps with direction, but it should match your hair type and head shape. Show the front, side and back if possible.
Tell the barber how often you cut your hair and how much time you spend styling it each morning.
Know the basic fade terms
Low fade keeps the transition lower and cleaner. Mid fade is more visible. High fade is stronger. Skin fade goes down to the skin and needs more frequent maintenance.
If you are unsure, ask the barber to choose the safest fade level for your face shape and hairline.
Book the right service
A haircut is different from hair + beard combo. If you need beard shaping too, choose combo so the barber has enough time.
