Ray Delgado
Owner. Cutting since 2003; opened the shop with two chairs and a card table. Signature: the drop fade. Keeps a comb in the apron he has never once needed.
Tue – Sat · Since day oneWalk-ins welcome. Standards non-negotiable.
A good fade isn't fast.
A fast fade isn't good.
Fadehouse opened in 2016 with four chairs, one pole, and a rule taped to the mirror: the clippers never leave a head unfinished. Ten years on, the tape has yellowed and the rule stands. We are not a salon, not a grooming lounge, not an "experience." We are a barbershop that takes your half hour more seriously than you do.
Board prices, tax in. The number you read is the number you pay.
Four barbers, four tempers, one standard. Ask for anyone; leave happy with all of them.

Tue – Sat · Since day oneBeard architecture and straight-razor work. Third-generation barber out of Bed-Stuy; strops his own razors Sunday nights. Will talk jazz records exactly as long as you let him.
Wed – Sun · Joined 2017Scissor crops, textured tops, the hardest cowlicks in Kings County. Trained in Seoul, finished on Grand St. If you bring a photo, she will tell you the truth about it.
Tue – Sat · Joined 2019Precision designs, freestyle lines, and the steadiest zero-gap trimmer hand in the shop. Did the pinstripe lettering on the front window with a brush, freehand.
Thu – Mon · Joined 2021Taped to the mirror since opening day. Enforced by everyone, including you.
We hold your chair ten minutes. Minute eleven, it goes to the walk-in bench, no hard feelings either way.
Forty-five on the clock. Nobody leaves half-finished because the shop got loud at 5 PM.
Steel on every hairline, never the corner of a trimmer. That is the difference you are paying for.
With every shave. No exceptions, no upcharge, no asking.
If the photo you brought will not work with your hair, you hear it before the cape goes on, not after.
Clippers stripped, blades dipped, chair wiped. Watch us do it; we like when you watch.
Maybe more. First-haircut certificates are free and Ray signs every one.
Tips are appreciated, never chased. Nobody hovers at the register.

No booking app, no DMs. Call, or just come by. If the green bench is out front there is a wait — put your name on the chalkboard and grab a coffee at Copper Kettle two doors down. We will not start without you.
