Taper Fade Near Me — Lakewood, CO
Searched taper fade near me and landed here? Good. Taper Godz Barber Co. sits on S Wadsworth Blvd in Lakewood, and the taper is the cut we built the shop around.
Low, mid, high, burst, drop — every version comes down to the same thing: a blend with no lines in it that tapers to a clean zero at the bottom. We use clipper-over-comb and shears through the transition so the top never looks disconnected from the sides.
Straight, wavy, curly, or coarse — the guard numbers change but the standard does not. You leave sharp, and it grows out even instead of shelfing.

Taper fade questions, answered
Where can I get a taper fade near me in Lakewood?
Taper Godz Barber Co. at 3234 S Wadsworth Blvd, Lakewood, CO 80227. Tapers are literally our name — low, mid, high, burst, and drop fades are what we cut all day.
What is the difference between a taper and a fade?
A taper is the gradual shortening around the edges — sideburns and nape — that blends down to a zero at the very bottom. A fade takes that blend higher up the sides and back. Most guys asking for a taper fade want both: tight edges and a smooth blend.
Low, mid, or high taper — which should I ask for?
Low taper sits just above the ear and keeps the most weight up top, mid taper starts around the temple for a balanced look, and high taper drops the guard near the parietal ridge for maximum contrast. Tell us how you style it and we will pick with you.
How often do I need to come back?
Two weeks keeps a taper crisp. Three weeks is the outside edge before the blend starts to grow into the line.
