Faded Urban Grooming Lounge

I was disappointed. I had a reservation at 8pm, when I got in just on time I was told that my barber be with me soon. I had to wait 25 minutes, he obviously took someone else from the street without a reservation. I would have expected apology at least, but not a single word and he pretended that everything was ok.Second time when I had a skin fade it took almost an hour and the result was not great, when I got home and washed my hair, I saw that many hair on the top had different length(check the photo) which looked very awkward, and I had to fix it by myself.Cannot believe this place has almost only 5 stars review, as my three visit did not go well at all.

Top 3 best haircut I ever had,and that's me being conservative. I'm very picky about who touches my hair and generally never satisfied with a lot of the barbers I've tried.However, the barber (name is Troy) that worked on my hair was really good. It's almost an hour drive from me but I will be back!

Needed a good haircut and after reading reviews decided to try Faded, which turned out to be a good decision. Cuts are fresh and clean and exactly what you ask for. Friendly barbers in a nice relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended.

The place had a nice design and the barber did exactly what I asked for.

Great place - friendly and welcoming. My sons have been visiting for a few years. The cuts are really good. Don’t know if there’s anywhere better in Reading to find a good barber that can turn his hand to all hair types.

Nice interior, professional barbers. Everything about the place was professional without being stuck up. If you want to get a fade in Reading this is the place to go. I went here after another barber messed up my hair and it was a success. Fade isn't for me, but they are great at what they do.

Been going here for a few years now after searching for a good barber within a half hour drive. Without a doubt you won't go wrong with any of the guys here. I've had my haircut by Oli and Sam and they are such great guys. Pay attention to detail every single time. Never had a bad haircut or felt like I was rushed. If you go here you won't go anywhere else.

Would definitely recommend, great lads at Faded and especially Charlie Harris is worth a mention. Always kept me looking sharp when I lived in Reading

Oli never disappoints! Another fresh fade and design for my boy. These guys are so talented and very reasonably priced given the skill and time they put in! Highly recommend
