Fresh Fades
Quick info
About Fresh Fades
Fresh Fades is a barber shop on S 14th St W in Missoula, taking walk-ins rather than scheduled bookings. The shop works from a fade base, with some customers pairing scissors on top with a fade for more length. Barbers check in on the cut before finishing up, and the line can run several people deep, though the wait tends to move along. Kids are part of the regular clientele, and the barbers keep them talking and settled through the cut. The shop opens Monday through Saturday and stays closed on Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Clean fades draw the most repeat praise, with several reviewers naming a specific barber who delivers a "clean fade" and scissor work on top, checking satisfaction before finishing. Close behind, another barber is repeatedly credited with great cuts for young kids, described as patient and good at putting nervous children at ease, including one with cowlicks and a five year old who's returned multiple times. Reviewers also point to walk-ins moving quickly even with a short line, a clean shop, and staff who chat easily with customers, with one comparing the result favorably to "assembly-line" cuts at chain shops for a similar price. One reviewer notes the shop plays rap music and adds that anyone not comfortable with that might skip it. No recurring complaints appear across the reviews. Multiple reviewers describe becoming repeat customers, with one saying they hadn't had a bad cut since they started going and another bringing three sons back on multiple visits.

“My 5 year old loves getting his hair cut here. Corey has cut his hair the last 2 visits and did an amazing job. Highly recommend!!!”
- Ethan Jamba
“I’ve been going to Fresh Fades for a few years now since I discovered them in college after trial and error with other barbershops. Haven’t had a bad cut since starting with them and they’ve only gotten better now that they already know what I prefer. Best barbershop in Missoula hands down!”
- Curtis Johnson
“I’ve tried a few barbershops in town since moving here. I gave Fresh Fades a shot today and I’m glad I did. Logan for the win 🏆 !!! He gave me a clean fade and exactly what I was hoping for. …”

“Best cuts in Missoula, A+ staff and atmosphere. Logan G, hit me with the clean fade and scissors on top. Asked me if I was happy with the cut before he finished. Highly recommend for the best Fade and cut in town. Worth the wait if you want it done right. Montana Pro Contractors”
- Jason Phillips
“Highly recommended! Corey gave me a great haircut, very professional, much better than the "assembly-line cut" you get at the big chains, but for about the same price. Thanks!”
