I asked (and prepaid) for a skin tight fade around the sides and back to get rid of my mullet but my barber actually said "no" and proceeded to give me a scissors cut, but when he was finished there was literally no difference. I asked him to go even shorter and he just went a bit shorter. I left super disappointed with only about two inches of a fade on the sides that stop at my ears and just a shorter mullet. Anyone I have met since agreed that they even didn't notice I got my haircut
