Question 6

What makes Burns Barbers different from other Leicester barber shops?

Accepted Answer

We are an award-winning salon built on a national reputation for excellence. Every appointment at our luxury studio begins with a personal, one-to-one consultation. Furthermore, we don't just cut hair—we "own the recipe." We use our own bespoke, in-house Burns collection hair and beard products to ensure a premium, clean finish every single time.

Question 7

What is a skin fade, and how long does it take?

Accepted Answer

A skin fade is a precision haircut where the hair is blended seamlessly from skin-short at the bottom up into your choice of length on top. Our senior barbers specialize in razor-sharp high, mid, and low skin fades. A standard Skin Fade Haircut at our Leicester studio takes 30 minutes, or 40 minutes if you pair it with a professional beard trim.

Question 8

What is the difference between a skin fade and a classic haircut?

Accepted Answer

A skin fade blends the hair down to the bare skin using foil shavers or clippers, creating a high-contrast, modern aesthetic. A classic haircut keeps the hair longer around the sides and back, typically using scissors or higher clipper guards for a traditional, blended, and timeless look. Every haircut at Burns starts with a personal consultation to see which style suits your hair type and face shape best.

Question 9

What does your beard sculpting service include?

Accepted Answer

Our beard sculpting and beard trim services are designed to clean up your jawline, remove bulk, and shape your facial hair to perfectly complement your face shape. We use crisp razor lines, precision clippers, and finish with our bespoke in-house Burns collection beard products to keep your beard hydrated, sharp, and smelling fresh.

Question 10

Can I get a scissors-only haircut or a modern taper fade?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Our senior staff are trained in both traditional barbering and modern styling trends. Whether you are looking for a full scissor-cut restyle, a modern taper fade (fading just the temples and neckline), a buzz cut, or a textured crop, our team delivers a clean, premium finish.

Question 11

What is included in the "Hair, Beard, Face, Steam" package?

Accepted Answer

This is our ultimate 60-minute luxury grooming treatment. It combines a premium haircut or skin fade, meticulous beard sculpting, and a relaxing hot towel steam treatment. The steam opens up your pores and softens facial hair, allowing for an incredibly close razor finish and a deeply refreshing experience.
