The KS Ghost standard
You shouldn’t be able to find the line.
We’re a neighbourhood barbershop at 184 Wilson Avenue, cutting for men and kids. Precision, attention to detail and a comfortable chair: fades, classic cuts, modern styles, beard trims and shaves, for every hair type.
- 01
The blend
Fades and tapers worked until the steps disappear, from skin to length.
- 02
The line
Clean edges where they count: the hairline, the neckline, the beard.
- 03
The chair
The same care for every client, from a first fade to a classic cut.
Fade guide
Know what to ask for.
Taper, low, mid or high, and how short at the bottom. Pick one and see where the blend sits.
Taper
Length stays on the sides; only the sideburns and the neckline are taken down. Conservative, and it grows out gracefully.
Ask for “A taper at the sideburns and neckline, a little off the sides.”
Low fade
Starts just above the ear and follows the hairline around the back. A clean edge that stays subtle.
Ask for “A low fade, blended into the length on the sides.”
Mid fade
Starts level with the middle of the ear and blends up to the temple. The balance between contrast and coverage.
Ask for “A mid fade, blended up to the temple.”
High fade
Starts at the top of the ear and runs up to where the head curves into the top. The most contrast with the length on top.
Ask for “A high fade, up to the parietal ridge.”
Skin Down to the skin at the bottom, with a foil shaver or razor.
Start at #0 Clippers with no guard at the bottom: a shadow, not skin.
Start at #1 A #1 guard at the bottom (about 3 mm): the softest start.

The quality of the haircut and shave is top-notch—true craftsmanship.
They take their time with your hair/beard to really meet your expectations, unbelievable fades & clean ups.
The place has a unique, stylish design, and the service is always on point.
The staff were super friendly, the atmosphere was relaxed, and my haircut was exactly as I wanted.
The shop
A sharp room for sharp work.
Gold-and-black chairs, bright hexagon lights over the stations, and a lounge with the KS Ghost logo on the wall.
The salon is incredibly spacious, spotless, and has a very welcoming, reliable atmosphere.
