Taper Haircuts in Lakewood, CO
A taper is a gradual shortening of the hair around the sideburns and neckline — the hair still blends down, but it never goes to skin. It is the cleanest way to keep a haircut looking sharp without changing how much hair you have on top.
At Taper Godz Barber Co. on S Wadsworth Blvd in Lakewood, every taper starts with a consultation so we build the shape around your hair type, growth pattern, and how you actually wear it day to day.
What's included
- —Consultation and shape planning
- —Clipper and/or shear taper
- —Neck clean up
- —Shampoo upon request
- —Blow dry and product styling
Frequently asked
What is the difference between a taper and a fade?
A taper gradually shortens the hair around the neckline and sideburns but never takes it to the skin. A fade blends the sides all the way down, often to bare skin.
How much is a taper in Lakewood?
Pricing depends on which barber you book with. Each barber has a different level of experience.
How often should I get a taper?
Most clients come back every 2 to 3 weeks to keep the taper looking clean.
